Features of your vehicle
The parking distance warning assists
the driver during movement of the
vehicle by chiming if any object is
sensed within the distance of 39 in.
(100 cm) in front and 47 in. (120 cm)
behind the vehicle.This system is a supplemental sys-
tem and it is not intended to nor does
it replace the need for extreme care
and attention of the driver.
The sensing range and objects
detectable by the sensors (➀) are
limited. Whenever moving pay as
much attention to what is in front and
behind of you as you would in a vehi-
cle without a parking distance warn-
ing.
Operation of the parking dis-
tance warning

The sensing distance while back-
ing up is approximately 47 in (120
cm). when you are driving less
than 6.2 mph (10 km/h).
The sensing distance while moving forward is approximately 39 in.
(100 cm) when you are driving less
than 6.2 mph (10 km/h).
When more than two objects are sensed at the same time, the clos-
est one will be recognized first.
The side sensors are activated when you shift the gear to the R
(Reverse) position.
If the vehicle speed is above 12.4 mph (20 km/h), the system auto-
matically turns off. To activate
again, push the button.

Features of your vehicle
✽ ✽NOTICE
• This system can only sense objects
within the range and location of
the sensors. It cannot detect
objects in other areas where sen-
sors are not installed. Also, small
or slim objects, such as poles or
objects located between sensors
may not be detected by the sen-
sors. Always visually check behind
the vehicle when backing up.
• Be sure to inform any drivers of the vehicle that may be unfamiliar
with the system regarding the sys-
tems capabilities and limitations.
Non-operational conditions of
parking distance warning
Parking distance warning may
not operate normally when:
1. Moisture is frozen to the sensor. (It will operate normally when mois-
ture melts.)
2. Sensor is covered with foreign matter, such as snow or water, or
the sensor cover is blocked. (It will
operate normally when the materi-
al is removed or the sensor is no
longer blocked.)
3. Sensor is stained with foreign mat- ter such as snow or water.
(Sensing range will return to nor-
mal when Cleaned.)
4.The parking distance warning button is off.
There is a possibility of parkingdistance warning malfunctionwhen:
1. Driving on uneven road surfaces such as unpaved roads, gravel,
bumps, or gradient.
2. Objects generating excessive noise such as vehicle horns, loud
motorcycle engines, or truck air
brakes can interfere with the sen-
sor.
3. The weather conditions produce heavy rain or water spray
4. Wireless transmitters or mobile phones are present near the sen-
sor.
5. Sensor is covered with snow.

Detecting range may decrease
when:
1. Outside air temperature is extremely hot or cold.
2. Undetectable objects smaller than 1 m and narrower than 14 cm in
diameter.
The following objects may not be
recognized by the sensor:
1. Sharp or slim objects such as ropes, chains or small poles.
2. Objects, which tend to absorb sen- sor frequency such as clothes,
spongy material or snow.
✽ ✽NOTICE
1. The warning may not sound
sequentially depending on the speed
and shapes of the objects detected.
2. The parking distance warning may malfunction if the vehicle
bumper height or sensor installa-
tion has been modified. Any non-
factory installed equipment or
accessories may also interfere
with the sensor performance.
3. Sensor may not recognize objects less than 12 in. (30 cm) from the
sensor, or it may sense an incor-
rect distance. Use with caution.
4. When the sensor is frozen or stained with snow or water, the sensor may
be inoperative until the stains are
removed using a soft cloth.
5. Do not push, scratch or strike the sensor with any hard objects that
could damage the surface of the
sensor. Sensor damage could occur.
✽ ✽NOTICE
This system can only sense objects
within the range and location of the
sensors, it can not detect objects in
other areas where sensors are not
installed. Also, small or slim objects,
or objects located between sensors
may not be detected.
Always visually check in front and
behind the vehicle when driving.
Be sure to inform any drivers in the
vehicle that may be unfamiliar with
the system regarding the systems
capabilities and limitations.

Self-diagnosis
When you shift the gear to the R
(Reverse) position and if one or more
of the below occurs you may have a
malfunction in the parking distance
warning-reverse.
You don't hear an audible warningsound or if the buzzer sounds inter-
mittently.
If this occurs, we recommend that the

✽ ✽ NOTICE
Your new vehicle warranty does not
cover any accidents or damage to
the vehicle or injuries to its occu-
pants related to a parking distance
warning. Always drive safely and
cautiously.
WARNING
Pay close attention when the
vehicle is driven close to
objects on the road, particularly
pedestrians, and especially
children. Be aware that some
objects may not be detected by
the sensors, due to the objects
distance, size or material, all of
which can limit the effective-
ness of the sensor. Always per-
form a visual inspection to
make sure the vehicle is clear of
all obstructions before moving
the vehicle in any direction.

CAUTION
Never place anything over thesensor (1) located on theinstrument panel as this willensure better auto-light sys-tem control.
Do not clean the sensor using a window cleaner as the clean-er may leave a light film whichcould interfere with the sen-sor's operation.
If your vehicle has window tint or other types of metallic coat-ing on the front windshield,the Auto light system may notwork properly.
WARNING - High beams
Do not use high beam when
there are other vehicles. Using
high beam could obstruct the
other driver’s vision.

The Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist (FCA) system is designed to
help detect and monitor the vehicle
or pedestrians ahead in the roadway
through camera recognition to warn
the driver that a collision is imminent,
and if necessary, apply emergency
braking.System setting and activation
System setting

placing the ignition switch to the
ON position and by selecting:
'User Settings → Driver Assistance
→ Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist.' The FCA system deactivates,

FORWARD COLLISION-AVOIDANCE ASSIST (FCA) SYSTEM - CAMERA TYPE
WARNING
Take the following precaution-
swhen using the Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist
(FCA) system:
This system is only a supple- mental system and it is not
intended to, nor does it replace
the need for extreme care and
attention of the driver. The
sensing range and objects
detectable by the sensors are
limited. Pay attention to the
road conditions at all times.
Never drive too fast in accor- dance with the road condi-
tions or while cornering.
Always drive cautiously to prevent unexpected and sud-
den situations from occur-
ring. FCA does not stop the
vehicle completely and is not
a collision avoidance system.
