DRIVING PRECAUTIONS

up, be sure to visually check all around

CAUTION
● Never depend on the parking assist mon-

● Be sure to back up slowly, depressing the
brake pedal to control vehicle speed.
● If you seem likely to hit nearby vehicles,
obstacles, people or mount the shoulder,
depress the brake pedal to stop the vehi-

steering wheel will vary according to traf-

necessary to be fully aware of this before
using the parking assist system.
● When parking, be sure to check that the
parking space will accommodate your
vehicle before maneuvering into it.
