Driver Assistance (if so equipped)
The driver assistance menu allows the user to
change the various driving and parking aids.
Menu itemResult
Driving Aids (if so equipped) Displays available driving aids. For additional information, refer to “Blind Spot Warning (BSW)” and “Rear Cross Traff ic Alert
(RCTA)” in the “Starting and driving” section of this manual.
Blind Spot (BSW) Allows user to turn the blind spot warning system on or off
Parking Aids (if so equipped) Displays available parking aids. For additional information, refer to “Front and rear sonar system” in the “Starting and driving” sec-
tion of this manual.
Moving Object (if so equipped) Allows user to turn the Moving Object Detection (MOD) on or off. For additional information, refer to “Moving Object Detection (MOD)” in the “Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems” section of this manual.
Sensor (if so equipped) Allows the user to turn the sensors on, off, or front only
Display Allows user to turn the display on or off in the vehicle information display
Volume Allows user to adjust the volume of warning chimes
Range Allows user to set a specific range for the sensors to engage

● The following conditions may reduce
the ability of the radar to detect other
vehicles:
– Severe weather
– Road spray
– Ice build-up on the vehicle
– Frost build-up on the vehicle
– Dirt build- up on the vehicle
● Do not attach stickers (including trans-
parent material) , install accessories or
apply additional paint near the radar
sensors. These conditions may reduce
the ability of the radar to detect other
vehicles ●
Do not use the RCTA systems when
towing a trailer.
● Excessive noise (e.g. audio system vol-
ume, open vehicle window) will inter-
fere with the chime sound, and it may
not be heard.
NOTE:● In the case of several vehicles approaching
in a row (Illustration 1) or in the opposite
direction (Illustration 2) , a chime may not be
sounded by the RCTA system after the first
vehicle passes the sensors.

●Read and understand the limitations of
the sonar (parking sensor) system as
contained in this section. The colors of
the corner sonar indicator and the dis-
tance guide lines in the front/rear view
indicate different distances to the
object.
● Inclement weather or ultrasonic
sources such as an automatic car wash,
a truck’s compressed-air brakes or a
pneumatic drill may affect the function
of the system; this may include reduced
performance or a false activation.
● This function is designed as an aid to
the driver in detecting large stationary
objects to help avoid damaging the
vehicle.
● The system is not designed to prevent
contact with small or moving objects.
Always move slowly. The system will
not detect small objects below the bum-
per, and may not detect objects close to
the bumper or on the ground.
● The system may not detect the follow-
ing objects: Fluffy objects such as
snow, cloth, cotton, glass, wool, etc.,
Thin objects such as rope, wire and
chain, etc., or wedge-shaped objects. If your vehicle sustains damage to the bumper
fascia, leaving it misaligned or bent, the sensing
zone may be altered causing inaccurate mea-
surement of obstacles or false alarms.
CAUTION
●
Excessive noise (such as audio system
volume or an open vehicle window) will
interfere with the tone and it may not be
heard.
● Keep the sonar sensors (located on the
bumper fascia) free from snow, ice and
large accumulations of dirt. Do not
clean the sensors with sharp objects. If
the sensors are covered, the accuracy of
the sonar function will be diminished.
SYSTEM OPERATION
The system informs with a visual and audible alert
of front obstacles when the shift lever is in the D
(Drive) position and both front and rear obstacles
when the shift lever is in the R (Reverse) position. Sonar Operation Table

The system is deactivated at speeds above
6 mph (10 km/h). It is reactivated at lower
speeds.
The intermittent tone will stop after 3 seconds
when an obstacle is detected by only the corner
sensor and the distance does not change. The
tone will stop when the obstacle get away from
the vehicle.
When the object is 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 increase. When the
vehicle is very close to the object, the indicator
stops blinking and turns red, and the tone sounds
continuously.

●The driver is always responsible for
safety during parking and other maneu-
vers. Always turn and look back before
backing up. The sonar system is not a
substitute for proper procedures.

the function of the sonar system; this
may include reduced performance or a

not detect certain angular or moving
objects.
● The system is deactivated at speeds
above 6 mph (10 km/h) and is reacti-
vated at lower speeds.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The sonar sensors1are located on the front
and rear bumpers. Always keep the area near the
sonar sensors clean.
The sonar sensors may be blocked by temporary
ambient conditions such as splashing water, mist
or fog.
The blocked condition may also be caused by
objects such as ice, frost or dirt obstructing the
sonar sensors.
Check for and remove objects obstructing the
area around the sonar sensors.
