154 STARTING AND OPERATING
The system is operational if after reverse gear is
engaged:
an acknowledgement tone sounds
the multi-function indicator shows the distance to
an obstacle that has been detected.
WARNING!
The reversing aid is feature designed to provide as-
sistance and may not detect all obstacles. The sys-
tem is not a replacement for your own diligence.
The reversing aid does not detect people and/or
objects within a range of approximately 12 in (30
cm). There is a possibility that certain objects
which could come into contact with the vehicle at
the rear will not be detected by the system’s
sensors. This could cause an accident resulting in
severe personal injuries, death and property
damage.
For this reason, you should make sure before
manuevring that no people or animals are in the
maneuvring range of the vehicle.
Pay particular attention to people and/or objects
above or below sensors when parking, such as
small children, toddlers, flower pots or trailer
towbars.
You are always responsible for safety at all times
and must continue to pay attention to your
immediate surroundings when manoeuvring. A
second person should assist you in manouevring if
necessary.
