REAR CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT
(IF EQUIPPED)
REAR CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT (RCTA)
The RCTA is designed to alert the driver of oncoming traffic when backing out of a parking spot. RCTA is active when your vehicle is in reverse and your vehicle speed is 0 mph to 9 mph.
When the BSM sensors detect a moving object, the RCTA will notify the driver with indicators and sound:
• Rear view monitor and outside mirror flashing indications.
Refer to your Owner’s Manual for complete details.
WARNING:
RCTA is only a
supplementary
system to help aid
when backing up; however, RCTA
has limitations.
The system does not detect all
vehicles, especially motorcycles. Do
not rely solely on the RCTA. Relying
solely on the RCTA may cause
an unexpected
accident resulting in serious injury.
Always back up slowly.
