The sensitivity level of the corner/center sonar
can be adjusted (higher or lower) in the SONAR
setting display. (See “HOW TO USE SETTING

for the “Sonar” settings.)

SONAR INDICATOR
With the “Sonar Display” key ON in the “Sonar”
settings, when the corner/center sonar detects
obstacles near the bumper, a tone will sound
and the sonar indicator will appear in the center
display. When the rear view monitor is dis-
played, the sonar indicator will appear in the
upper corner of the display
1.
The sonar indicators
AandBindicate the
position of the object and the distance to the
object with its color and rate of blinking. When an object is detected, the indicator
(green) appears and blinks (the tone sounds
intermittently). When the vehicle moves closer
to the object, the color of the indicator turns
yellow and the rate of blinking increases (the
rate of the tone increases). When the corner of
the vehicle is very close to the object, less than
11.8 in (30 cm) away, the indicator stops blink-
ing and turns red (the tone sounds continu-
ously).
When the rear view monitor is displayed, the
colors of the sonar indicator and the distance
guide lines in the rear view indicate different
distances to the object.
The sonar indicator can be turned off in the
SONAR setting display. (See “HOW TO USE
SETTING BUTTON” in the “4. Monitor, climate,
audio, phone and voice recognition systems”
section for the “Sonar” settings.) When the
sonar indicator is off, only a tone sounds when
the sonar detects obstacles.
