In an angled collision, the force of
impact may direct the occupants in a
direction where the air bags would
not be able to provide any additional
benefit, and thus the sensors may
not deploy any air bags.Just before impact, drivers often
brake heavily. Such heavy braking
lowers the front portion of the vehicle
causing it to “ride” under a vehicle
with a higher ground clearance. Air
bags may not inflate in this "under-
ride" situation because deceleration
forces that are detected by sensors
may be significantly reduced by such
“underride” collisions.Front air bags may not inflate in
rollover accidents because air bag
deployment could not provide protec-
tion to the occupants.
However, side and curtain air bags
may inflate when the vehicle is rolled
over by a side impact collision.

Rear Parking Assist System
(if equipped)
The Rear Parking Assist System
assists the driver during reverse
movement of the vehicle by chiming
if any object is sensed within the dis-
tance of 50 inches (120 cm ) behind
the vehicle.
This system is a supplemental sys-
tem that senses objects within the
range and location of the sensors, it
cannot detect objects in other areas
where sensors are not installed.
Operation of the Rear ParkingAssist System
Operating condition
This system will activate when
backing up with the ignition switch
in the ON position. However, if vehi-
cle speed exceeds 3 mph (5km/h),
the system may not detect objects.
If vehicle speed exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h), the system will not warn you
even though objects are detected.
When more than two objects are sensed at the same time, the clos-
est one will be recognized first.

cle to make sure there are not
any objects or obstacles before
moving the vehicle in any direc-
tion to prevent a collision.
Always pay close attention
when the vehicle is driven close
to objects, particularly pedestri-
ans, and especially children.
Be aware that some objects
may not be visible on the
screen or be detected by the
sensors, due to the objects
distance, size or material, all of
which can limit the effective-
ness of the sensor.
