object is sensed within approximately
50 in (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.

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.
