Objects generating excessive noise such as vehicle horns, loud
motorcycle engines, or truck air
brakes can interfere with the sen-
sor.
Heavy rain or water spray is pres- ent.
Wireless transmitters or mobile phones are present near the sen-
sor.
The sensor is covered with snow.
Any non-factory equipment or accessories have been installed, or
if the vehicle bumper height or sen-
sor installation has been modified.
Detecting range may decrease when:
Outside air temperature isextremely hot or cold.
Undetectable objects smaller than 40 inches (1 m) and narrower than

Parking Distance Warning(Reverse) system Precautions
The Parking Distance Warning
(Reverse) system may not operate
consistently in some circum-
stances depending on the speed
of the vehicle and the shapes of
the objects detected.
The Parking Distance Warning (Reverse) system may malfunction
if the vehicle bumper height or
sensor installation has been modi-
fied or damaged. Any non-factory
installed equipment or accessories
may also interfere with the sensor
performance.
The sensor may not recognize objects less than 12 in. (30 cm)
from the sensor, or it may sense
an incorrect distance. Use caution.
When the sensor is blocked with snow, dirt, debris, or ice, the rear
parking assist system may be
inoperative until the snow or ice
melts, or the debris is removed.
Use a soft cloth to wipe debris
away from the sensor.

Air intake control
The air intake control button is used
to select either Fresh mode (outside
air) or Recirculation mode (cabin air).
Recirculation mode
When Recirculationmode is selected, air
from the passenger
compartment will be
recirculated through the
system and heated or
cooled according to the
function selected.
Fresh mode
When Fresh mode is selected, air enters the
vehicle from outside and
is heated or cooled
according to the function
selected.
Information
Operating the system primarily in
Fresh mode is recommended. Use
Recirculation mode temporarily only
when needed.
Prolonged operation of the heater in
Recirculation mode and without the
A/C ON can cause fogging of the
windshield.
In addition, prolonged use of the A/C
ON in Recirculation mode may result
in excessively dry, dehumidified air in
the cabin and may promote formation
of musty vent odor due to stagnant air.
i
Continued use of the climate
control system operation in
Recirculation mode for a pro-
longed period of time may
cause drowsiness to the
occupants in the cabin. This
may lead to loss of vehicle
control which may lead to an
accident.
Continued use of the climate
control system operation in
Recirculation mode with the
A/C OFF may allow humidity
to increase inside the cabin.
This may cause condensation
to accumulate on the wind-
shield and obscure visibility.
Do not sleep in your vehicle or
remain parked in your vehicle
with the windows up and
either the heater or the air
conditioning ON for pro-
longed periods of time. Doing
so may increase the levels of
carbon dioxide in the cabin
which may lead to serious
injury or death.
