WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions 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
maneuvers.
. 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.

4-26Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems
SONAR SYSTEM OPERATION
When the camera is first activated with the
bird’s-eye view on the upper display, red
markers will flash. This indicates that the
sonar system is activated.
The system gives the tone for front objects
when the shift lever is in the D (Drive)
position and both front and rear objects
when the shift lever is in the R (Reverse)
position.
When the camera image is shown on the
upper display, the system shows the sonar
indicator regardless of the shift lever posi-
tion.
The system is deactivated at speeds above 6
MPH (10 km/h). It is reactivated at lower
speeds.
The colors of the sonar indicators and the
distance guide lines in the front, front-wide,
rear and rear-wide views indicate different
distances to the object.
When the objects are detected, the indicator
(green) appears and blinks and the tone
sounds intermittently. When the vehicle
moves closer to the object, the color of the
indicator turns yellow and the rate of the
blinking and the rate of the tone increase.
When the vehicle is very close to the object,
the indicator stops blinking and turns red,
and the tone sounds continuously.The intermittent tone will stop after 3
seconds when an object is detected by only
the corner sonar and the distance does not
change.
The tone will stop when the object is no
longer near the vehicle.
WAE0236X
TURNING ON AND OFF THE SO-
NAR FUNCTION
When the Sonar/MOD keyis touched, the
indicator lighton the key will turn off and
the sonar will turn off temporarily. The
Moving Object Detection (MOD) system will
also be turned off at the same time. See
“Moving Object Detection (MOD)” (P.4-30).
When the Sonar/MOD key
is touched
again, the indicator lightwill turn on and
the sonar will turn back on.
In the cases below, the sonar will be turned
back on automatically:
. When the shift lever is in the R (Reverse)
position.
Page 201 of 468

.When the CAMERA button is pushed
and a screen other than the camera view
is shown on the display.
. When vehicle speed decreases below
approximately 5 MPH (8 km/h).
. When the ignition switch is placed in the
OFF position and turned back to the ON
position again.
To prevent the sonar system from activating
altogether, use the sonar system settings
menu.
Sonar system settings
The camera aiding sonar function settings
can be changed using the following proce-
dures.
1. Push the MENU button.
2. Touch [Settings] on the lower display.
3. Touch [Parking Sonar].
The displayed keys on the lower display may
vary depending on models, specifications

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
reduced performance or a false acti-
vation.
. The system is not designed to pre-
vent 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
following 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 measure-
ment 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
Parking sonar settings menu (the setting
items are grayed out), the sonar system may
be malfunctioning.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
Keep the surface of the sonar (located on
the front and rear bumper fascia) free
from accumulations of snow, ice and dirt.
Do not scratch the surface of the sonar
when cleaning. If the sensors are cov-
ered, the accuracy of the sonar function
will be diminished.

Rear and front-side views
WAE0239X
Front-wide view / rear-wide viewWhen the MOD system detects moving
objects near the vehicle, a chime will be
heard and a yellow frame will be displayed
on the view where the objects are detected.
While the MOD system continues to detect
moving objects, the yellow frame continues
to be displayed.
NOTE:
While the sonar/Back-up Collision Inter-
vention (BCI) system (if so equipped) is
beeping, the MOD system does not chime.
In the bird’s-eye view, the yellow frame
is
displayed on each camera image (front, rear,
right, left) depending on where moving
objects are detected.
The yellow frame
is displayed on each
view in the front view, front-wide view, rear
view and rear-wide view modes.
A green MOD icon
is displayed in the view
where the MOD system is operative. A white
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.
WAE0236X
TURNING THE MOD SYSTEM ON
AND OFF
When the MOD is active and the Sonar/
MOD keyis touched, the MOD system will
turn off temporarily and the indicatorwill
turn off. (A camera-aiding sonar will turn off
at the same time.) When the Sonar/MOD
key
is touched again, the indicator will turn
on and the MOD system will turn back on.
To enable or disable the MOD system, use
the camera settings menu.
