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.

CAMERA AIDING SONAR FUNCTION
Page 248 of 590

4-18Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems
SONAR SYSTEM OPERATION
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
touch screen display, the system shows the
sonar indicator regardless of the shift lever
position.
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 sonar and the distance does not change.
The tone will stop when the object is nolonger near the vehicle.
WAE0782X
TURNING ON AND OFF THE SO-
NAR FUNCTION
When the “P” keyis touched, the indicator
lighton the key will turn off and the sonar
will turn off temporarily. The Moving Object
Detection (MOD) and the Back-up Collision
Intervention (BCI) systems will also be
turned off at the same time. See “Moving
Object Detection (MOD)” (P.4-22) and
“Back-up Collision Intervention (BCI)” (P.5-
53).
When the “P” key
is touched again, the
indicator lightwill turn on and the sonar
will turn back on.
The Moving Object Detection (MOD) and
Page 249 of 590

the Back-up Collision Intervention (BCI)
systems will also turn back on at the same
time.
In the cases below, the sonar will be turned
back on automatically:

position.
. 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. (See “Sonar system settings” (P.4-
19).)
When both Sonar and the MOD system are
deactivated from the settings menu, the "P"
key
will disappear from the Around View®
Monitor screen. (See “Sonar system set-
tings” (P.4-19) and “MOD function settings”
