Sensors are located in the front and rea r bump ­
ers . If these detect an obstacle , audible and visu­
al signa ls warn you . The range at which the sen­
sors begin to measure is approxima tely:
side 3
ft (0.90 m)
front center 4
ft (1.20 m)
s ide 2
ft (0.60 m)
rear center 5.2 ft (1.60 m)
The closer you get to the obstacle , the shorter
the interval between the audible signals . A con­
t inu ous tone sounds when the obstacle is less
than approximately
1 foo t (0.30 meters) away .
Do not continue driving farther.
If the distance to an obstacle remains constant ,
the volume of the distance warning gradua lly
drops after about four seconds (this does not ap­
ply in the continuous tone range).
