tion)
■Adjusting the buzzer vol-
ume
The buzzer volume can be
adjusted on the multi-informa-
tion display.
Use the meter control switches
to change settings. ( P.100)
1 Press or of the meter
control switch to select .
2 Press or of the meter
control switch to select
and then press and hold .
3 Select the volume and then
press .
Each time the switch is pressed,
the volume lev el will change
between 1, 2, and 3.
■Muting a buzzer
A mute button will be displayed
on the multi-information display
when an object is detected. To
mute the buzzer, press .
The buzzers for the intuitive
parking assist and RCTA func-
tion (if equipped) will be muted
simultaneously. Mute will be canceled automati-
cally in the following situations:
When the shift position is
changed.
When the vehicle speed
exceeds a certain speed.
When there is a malfunction
in a sensor or the system is
temporarily unavailable.
When the operating function
is disabled manually.
When the power switch is
turned off.
The object warning function
informs the driver of the exis-
tence of objects along the side
of the vehicle, using a display
and buzzer, if the objects are
within the estimated path of the
vehicle.

detect objects. While the vehicle is moving, if a detected object can
no longer be detected by the side sensors or side cameras, the loca-
tion of the object relative to the vehicle is estimated. If the object is
determined to be in the estimated path of the vehicle, the obje ct
warning function will operate.
Object detected by side sensors or side cameras
1 The vehicle is stopped and objects along the sides of the vehic le
are not detected.
2 Objects are detected as the vehicle is moving.
3 Even though the objects are out side of the detection area of the
side sensors or side cameras, a warning is displayed and a
buzzer sounds.
■Object warning function operat-
ing conditions
●The Advanced Park is operating.
●The vehicle moves about 23.0 ft.
(7 m) after the fuel cell system is
started.
●The R shift position is selected.
●After the D shift position has been
selected, the vehicle has moved
23.0 ft. (7 m) or less.
●Camera switch has been pressed
and the panoramic view monitor
screen is displayed.
●The front or rear s ensor detects a
stationary object.
■Detection of objects along the
sides of the vehicle
●Objects along the sides of the
vehicle are not instantaneously
detected. The location of objects in relation to the
vehicle is esti-
mated after they are first detected
by the front or rear side sensors,
or side cameras. Therefore, after
the power switch is changed to
ON, even if an object is along the
side of the vehicle, it may not be
detected until the vehicle has
been driven a small amount and
the side sensors o r side cameras
completely scan the areas along
the sides of the vehicle.
●If a vehicle, person, animal, etc., is
detected by a side sensors or side
cameras, but then leaves the
detection area of the side sensors
or side cameras, the system will
assume the object has not moved.

WARNING
■Object warning function
In situations such as the following,
the function may n ot operate cor-
rectly, possibly leading to an acci-
dent. Proceed carefully.
●When starting off shortly after
the power switch is turned to
ON and a small vehicle or other
object which cannot be detected
by a front side sensor is next to
the vehicle.
In the situation shown in the fol-
lowing illustration, even if the
vehicle starts off, the vehicle on
the left will not be detected and
the object warni ng function will
not operate.
●When an object or person is in a
position which cannot be
detected by the side sensors or
side cameras.
●When, after the side sensors
have completed scanning the
areas along the sides of the
vehicle, a vehicle, person, or
other object approaches the
side of the vehic le and cannot
be detected.
RCTA (Rear Cross Traf-
fic Alert)*
The RCTA function uses the
BSM rear side radar sen-
sors installed behind the
rear bumper. This function
is intended to assist the
driver in checking areas
that are not easily visible
when backing up.
WARNING
■Cautions regarding the use of
the system
There is a limit t o the degree of
recognition accuracy and control
performance that this system can
provide, do not overly rely on this
system. The driver is always
responsible for paying attention to
the vehicle’s su rroundings and
driving safely. ( P.249)
