Reverse Parking Distance
Warning system (if equipped)
[A] : Sensor
The optional Reverse Parking
Distance Warning system assists the
driver during reverse movement of
the vehicle by chiming if any 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.
Operation of the ReverseParking Distance Warning system
Operating condition
This system will activate when
backing up with the ignition switch
in the ON position. However, if the
vehicle speed exceeds 3 mph (5
km/h), the system may not detect
objects.
If the vehicle speed exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h), the system will not
warn 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.
ALWAYS look around your vehi-
cle to make sure there are not
any objects or obstacles before
moving the vehicle in any direc-
tion to prevent a collision.
Always pay close attention
when the vehicle is driven close
to objects, particularly pedestri-
ans, and especially children.
Be aware that some objects
may not be visible on the
screen or be detected by the
sensors, due to the objects
distance, size or material, all of
which can limit the effective-
ness of the sensor.

Reverse Parking DistanceWarning system Precautions
The Reverse Parking Distance
Warning system may not operate
consistently in some circum-
stances depending on the speed
of the vehicle and the shapes of
the objects detected.
The Reverse Parking Distance Warning system may malfunction if
the vehicle bumper height or sen-
sor installation has been modified
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. Do not push, scratch or strike the
sensor with any hard objects that
could damage the surface of the
sensor. Sensor damage could
occur.
Do not spray the sensors or its surrounding area directly with a
high pressure washer. Doing so
may cause the sensors to fail to
operate normally.
Convenient features of your vehicle
Extreme caution should always
be taken to avoid accidents or
vehicle injuries. Do not solely
rely on the Reverse Parking
Distance Warning system.
Always drive safely and cau-
tiously, especially when back-
ing up in reverse.
