FUNCTION (models with Around
View® Monitor)
WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for proper use of the sonar
function as outlined in this section could
result in serious injury or death.. The sonar is a convenience feature. It
is not a substitute for proper parking.
. This function is designed as an aid to
the driver in detecting large station-
ary objects to help avoid damaging
the vehicle.
. The driver is always responsible for
safety during parking and other man-
euvers.
. Always look around and check that it
is safe to move before parking.
. Read and understand the limitations
of the sonar as contained in this
section.
The sonar function helps to inform the driver
of large stationary objects around the vehicle when parking by issuing an audible
and visual alert.

SONAR SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations
for the sonar function. Failure to operate
the vehicle in accordance with these
system limitations could result in serious
injury or death.
. Inclement weather or ultrasonic
sources such as an automatic car
wash, a truck’s compressed-air brakes
or a pneumatic drill may affect the function of the system, including re-
duced performance or a false activa-
tion.
. The system is not designed to prevent
contact with small or moving objects.
. The system will not detect small
objects below the bumper, and may
not detect objects close to the bum-
per or on the ground.
. The system may not detect the fol-
lowing objects:
— Fluffy objects such as snow, cloth, cotton, grass or wool.
— Thin objects such as rope, wire or chain.
— Wedge-shaped objects.
. If your vehicle sustains damage to the
bumper fascia, leaving it misaligned or
bent, the sensing zone may be altered
causing inaccurate measurement of
objects or false alarms.
CAUTION
Excessive noise (such as audio system
volume or an open vehicle window) will
interfere with the tone and it may not be
heard.
System temporarily unavailable
When the amber markers are displayed at
the corners of the vehicle icon and the
function cannot be activated from the
Camera/Sonar setting menu (the setting
items are grayed out), the sonar system
may be malfunctioning.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
Keep the surface of the sonar sensors
(located on the front and rear bumper
fascia) free from accumulations of snow,
ice and dirt. Do not scratch the surface of
the sonar sensors when cleaning. If the
sensors are covered, the accuracy of the
sonar function will be diminished.

MOVING OBJECT DETECTION
(MOD) (if so equipped)

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for proper use of the Moving
Object Detection system could result in
serious injury or death.. The MOD system is not a substitute
for proper vehicle operation and is not designed to prevent contact with the
objects surrounding the vehicle. When
maneuvering, always use the outside
mirror and rearview mirror and turn
and check the surrounding to ensure it
is safe to maneuver.
. The system is deactivated at speeds
above 6 MPH (10 km/h). It is reacti-
vated at lower speeds. .
The MOD system is not designed to
detect the surrounding stationary
objects.
The Moving Object Detection (MOD) system
can inform the driver of the moving objects
surrounding the vehicle when driving out of
garages, maneuvering into parking lots and
in other such instances.
The MOD system detects moving objects by
using image processing technology on the
image shown on the display.
INFO:
While the sonar/BCI warning tone is beep-
ing, the MOD system does not chime.
MOD SYSTEM OPERATION
The MOD system will turn on automatically
under the following conditions: . When the shift lever is in the “R”
(Reverse) position.
. When is pushed to activate
the camera view on the display.
. When vehicle speed decreases below
approximately 5 MPH (8 km/h) and the

objects are detected.
The yellow frame
is displayed on each

front-wide and rear-wide view modes, if so
equipped).
A blue MOD icon
is displayed in the view
where the MOD system is operative. A gray
MOD icon
is displayed in the view where
the MOD system is not operative.
If the MOD system is turned off, the MOD
icon
is not displayed.
The MOD system operates in the following
conditions when the camera view is dis-
played: . When the shift lever is in the “P” (Park) or
“N” (Neutral) position and the vehicle is
stopped, the MOD system detects the
moving objects in the bird’s-eye view.
The MOD system will not operate if the
outside mirror is moving in or out or if
either door is opened.
. When the shift lever is in the “D” (Drive)
position and the vehicle speed is below
approximately 5 MPH (8 km/h), the
MOD system detects moving objects in
the front view or front-wide view.
