view monitor system)
(See “ — Rear view monitor dis-
play” on page 291.)
When an obstacle is detected, the indi-
cator bars will come on or flash, accom-
panied by beeping. How many bars are
lit or flashing depends on the distance
to the obstacle.
When the obstacle is not detected any lon-
ger, beeps will stop sounding and the mul-
ti−information display and the screen will
return to the previous display.
The volume of the beeps and the display
on the screen can be changed. See “ —
Setting the Intuitive parking assist” on
page 293.
1Detection by front corner sen-
sors
2Detection by rear corner sensors
3Detection by back sensors
The approximate distance to the obstacle
is shown with up to 4 bars on the rear of the
vehicle and up to 3 bars on the front cor-
ners and the rear corners of the vehicle.
CAUTION
To avoid an accident or injury, ob-
serve the following instructions, and
then drive slowly using the brakes
while visually confirming a safe dis-
tance around your vehicle.
The sensor detection range is limit-
ed around the bumper. Be sure to
visually confirm safety outside the
sensor detection. For the sensor
detection range, see “ — Detection
range of sensors” on page 288.
It might take time for the sensors to
detect obstacles.
Depending on the shape of the ob-
stacle, indicators or beeps may not
warn you properly, and the detec-
tion range may also be shortened.
It might be difficult to hear beeps
due to the volume of audio or air
flow noise of the air conditioning.

When obstacles are detected on the
front and rear of the vehicle at the same
time; the multi−information display and
screen illuminate their relevant indica-
tor bars. And beeps are as follows:
1Obstacles detected on the front
and rear of the vehicle are not in
areas where continuous beeping
should sound:
The warning for the obstacle closer to the
vehicle will be issued. The above illustra-
tion indicates the obstacle detected by the
back sensors is closer to the vehicle. So,
the warning for the obstacle detected by
the back sensors will be given.
2The obstacle detected on the front
or rear of the vehicle is in an area
where continuous beeping should
sound:
If the possibility of collision with the ob-
stacle is high as shown, the Intuitive park-
ing assist warns the driver by continuous
beeping (repeating 7 intermittent beeps
and one longer beep as one cycle).
3Both obstacles detected on the
front and rear of the vehicle are in
areas where continuous beeping
should sound:
If the possibility of collision with the ob-
stacles is very high as shown, the Intuitive
parking assist warns the driver by continu-
ous beeping (repeating 3 quick beeps and
one longer beep as one cycle).
CAUTION
It might be difficult to hear beeps due
to the volume of audio or air flow
noise of the air conditioning. To
avoid an accident or injury, drive
slowly using the brakes while visual-
ly confirming a safe distance around
your vehicle.
— Numerous obstacles are
detected on the front and rea
r
of the vehicle simultaneously
