,&_ WARNING
-Sensors have dead spaces in which objects
cannot be detected . Be especially alert for
small chi ldren and animals, since they are
not always detected by the sensors .
- The acoustic parking system is not a substi­
tute for the dr iver's own caution and alert­
ness. Ultimate responsibility always remains
with the driver during parking and sim ilar
maneuvers . A lways watch where you are
dr iv ing .
- You should always adjust the volume and
frequency of the warning tones so that you
can eas ily hear the acoustic distance warn­
ing
even if the radio is playing, the air-cond i­
tioner blower is on High or there is a high
level of outs ide no ise.
- Check the settings whenever anyone else
has driven the vehicle be fore you.
(D Note
- Remember that low obstacles for whic h a
warning has already been issued may "dive"
below the system 's sensing zone if the vehi­
cle is being backed up closer . In this case,
the warn ing sound shutting off does
not in­
dicate that you have cleared the obstacle.
Instead, impact is imm inent.
- Objects such as trailer h itches, cha ins, nar ­
row posts or fences covered by a thin layer
of pa int may not a lways be detected by the
system. They can still damage your vehicle
wi thou t warn ing.
{O) Tips
Keep the sensors in the rear bumper clean
and free of snow and ice so that the acoust ic
parking assist system can f unction properly.
