The parking assist system assists
the driver during movement of the
vehicle by chiming if any object is
sensed within the distance of 100 cm
(39.3 in ) in front or 120 cm (47 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 much
attention to what is in front of and
behind you as you would in a vehicle
without a parking assist system.
The parking assist system should
only be considered as a supplemen-
tary function. The driver must check
the front and rear view. The opera-
tional function of the parking assist
system can be affected by many fac-
tors and conditions of the surround-
ings, so the responsibility rests
always with the driver.
Operation of the parking assist
system
Operating condition
• This system will activate when the
parking assist button is pressed
with the engine running.
