sensors.
.Always keep the rear bumper surface
near the sonar sensors clean.
.Do not modify the rear bumper.
.Do not paint the bumper near the sonar
sensors.
.Do not apply strong impacts to the rear
bumper near the sonar sensors. If a sensor
becomes misaligned, a system malfunc-
tion may occur, including inability to detectobjects in the reversing direction. If any
strong impact is applied to the rear
bumper, contact a SUBARU dealer to
have the system inspected.
.Do not disassemble the sonar sensors.
