The parking assist system assists
the driver during movement of the
vehicle by chiming if any object issensed within the distance of 60 cm(24 in.) in front and 100 cm (39 in.)
behind the vehicle. This system is a supplemental sys-tem and it is not intended to nor does
it replace the need for extreme care
and attention of the driver.
The sensing range and objects
detectable by the sensors are limit-
ed. Whenever moving pay as muchattention to what is in front and
behind of you as you would in a vehi-
cle without a parking assist system.
Operation of the parking assist system
Operating condition
This system activates when the
parking assist button is pressed with
the Engine Start/Stop button ON.
The parking assist button turns on automatically and activates the
parking assist system when you
shift the gear to the R (Reverse)
position. It will turn off automatical-
ly when you shift out of R (Reverse)
and drive above 20 km/h.
PARKING ASSIST SYSTEM

The parking assist system
should only be considered as a
supplementary function. The
driver must check the front and
rear view. The operational func-tion of the parking assist system
can be affected by many factors
and conditions of the surround-
ings, so the responsibility rests
always with the driver.

vehicle that may be unfamiliar with
the system regarding the systems
capabilities and limitations.WARNING
Pay close attention when the
vehicle is driven close to
objects on the road, particularly
pedestrians, and especially

objects may not be detected by
the sensors, due to the objects
distance, size or material, all of
which can limit the effective-
ness of the sensor. Always per-
form a visual inspection to
make sure the vehicle is clear of
