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.
. This function is designed as an aid to
the driver in detecting large station-
ary objects to help avoid damaging
the vehicle.
. 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.

Page 233 of 524

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the Mov-
ing 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.
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 vehicle speed decreases below
approximately 5 MPH (8 km/h).

Front-wide view / rear-wide viewWhen the MOD system detects moving
objects near the vehicle, the yellow frame
will be displayed on the view where the
objects are detected and a chime will sound
once. While the MOD system continues to
detect moving objects, the yellow frame
continues to be displayed.
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.
While the sonar is beeping, the MOD system
does not chime.
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.
. When the shift lever is in the R (Reverse)
position and the vehicle speed is below
approximately 5 MPH (8 km/h), the
MOD system detects moving objects in
the rear view or rear-wide view. The
MOD system will not operate if the
liftgate is open.
The MOD system does not detect moving
objects in the front-side view. The MOD icon
is not displayed on the screen when in front-
side view.

WARNING
.The air conditioner cooling function
operates only when the engine is
running.
. Do not leave children or adults who
would normally require the support
of others alone in your vehicle. Pets
should not be left alone either. On
hot, sunny days, temperatures in a
closed vehicle could quickly become
high enough to cause severe or
possibly fatal injuries to people or
animals.
. Do not use the recirculation mode for
long periods as it may cause the
interior air to become stale and the
windows to fog up.
. Do not adjust the heating and air
conditioning controls while driving so
that full attention may be given to
vehicle operation.
Start the engine and operate the automatic
climate control system.
NOTE:
. Odors from inside and outside the
vehicle can build up in the air conditioner
unit. Odor can enter the passenger compartment through the ventilators.
. When parking, set the heater and air
conditioner controls to turn off air
recirculation to allow fresh air into the
passenger compartment. This should
help reduce odors inside the vehicle.
