ticular attention to the following obstacles:

• Sharply-angled objects
•Low obstacles
• Tall obstacles with upper sections projecting outwards in the direction of
your vehicle

distance may shorten, or detection may be impossible.

beep sounds.
• Thin posts or objects lower than the sensor may not be detected for colli-
sion when approached, even if they have been detected once.
• It might be difficult to hear beeps due to the volume of audio system or
air flow noise of air conditioning system.
