• Cotton, snow and other materials that absorb sound waves
• Sharply-angled objects
• Low objects
• Tall objects with upper sections projecting outwards in the direction of
your vehicle
• People, animals and other moving objects
• People wearing certain types of clothing
● The following situations may occur when using the intuitive parking assist.
• Depending on the shape of the object and other factors, the de tection dis-
tance may be shortened, or detection may not be possible.
• Objects may not be detected if they are too close to a sensor.
• There will be a short delay between the detection of an object and display
of the detection. Even at slow speeds, there is a possibility t hat the object
will come within a sensor’s detection area before the display i s shown
and a warning beep sounds.
• Thin posts or objects lower than a sensor may not be detected when
approached, even if they have been detected once.
