detect an object. Once the ice melts, the
system will return to normal.
■Sensor detection information
●The following situations may occur
during use.
• The sensors may be able to only detect objects near the fron t and rear bumpers.
• Depending on the shape of the object
and other factors, the detection distance
may shorten, or detection may be impos-
sible.
• There will be a short delay between object detection and di splay. Even at low
speeds, there is a possibility that the
object will come within the sensor’s
detection areas befo re the display is
shown and the warning beep sounds.
• It might be difficult to hear the buzzer due to the volume of the audio system or air
flow noise of the air conditioning system.
• It may be difficult to hear the buzzer if buzzers for other systems are sounding.
