Parking System
_& WARNING
-Sensors have dead spaces in which ob jects
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 driver's own caution and alert
ness. Ultimate responsibility always remains
with the driver during parking and simi lar
maneuvers . Always watch where you are
dr iv ing .
- Yo u should always adjust the volume and
frequency of the warning tones so that you
can eas ily hea r the acoustic distance warn
ing
even if the radio is p lay ing, the air-cond i
t ioner blower is on High or there is a high
level of outs ide noise .
- Chec k the settings whenever anyone e lse
has driven t he veh icle before you.
(D Note
- Remember that low obstacles for which a
warning has already been issued may "dive"
below the system 's sens ing 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 .
Ins tead, impact is imm inent.
- Objects such as tra ile r hitches , cha ins, nar
r ow posts or fences
cove red by a th in layer
of pa int may no t always be dete cte d by the
system. T hey can still damage your vehicle
wi tho ut warn ing.
@ Tips
Keep the senso rs in the rea r bumpe r clean
an d free of snow a nd ice so that the ac ous tic
parking assi st system can f unction properly .
