when the vehicle is driven
close to objects, particularly
pedestrians, and especially

Parking Distance Warning
(Reverse/Forward) System
Precautions
• Forward/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.
• Forward/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 sys-
tem 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 sur-
rounding area directly with a high
pressure washer. Doing so may
cause the sensors to fail to operate
normally.

• ALWAYS look around your
vehicle to make sure there are
no objects or pedestrian
before moving the vehicle in
any direction to prevent a col-
lision.
• Do not solely rely on Parking
Collision-Avoidance Assist-
Reverse system. The system
might not assist the driver
leading to pedestrian injury or
vehicle damage.
• Be aware that some objects
may not be visible on the
screen or be detected by the
rear ultrasonic sensors, due
to the objects' distance, size
or material, all of which can
limit the effectiveness of the
sensors.
