the radiator grille and front emblem
in and around the front radar sensor,
and do not replace the radiator grille
and front emblem with any product
that is not a genuine product
designed for use with the front radar
sensor.
 The front radar sensor includes a
function for detecting soiling of the
radar sensor's front surface and
informing the driver, however,
depending on the conditions, it may
require time to detect or it may not
detect plastic shopping bags, ice or
snow. If this occurs, the system may
not operate correctly, therefore
always keep the front radar sensor
clean.
 Do not install a grille guard.
 If the front part of the vehicle has
been damaged in a vehicle accident,

installed inside the front bumper, one
on each side.
Always keep the surface of the front

The detection ability of the front side
radar sensor has limitations. In the
following cases, the detection ability
may lower and the system may not
operate normally.
The front bumper near the front
side radar sensor has become
deformed.
Snow, ice or mud adheres to the
front side radar sensor on the front
bumper.
Under bad weather conditions
such as rain, snow and fog.
Under the following conditions, the
front side radar sensor cannot detect
target objects or it may be difficult to
detect them.
Small motorcycles, bicycles,
pedestrians, animals, shopping
carts, and stationary objects on a
road or a road side.
Vehicle shapes which do not
reflect radar waves well such as
empty trailers with a low vehicle
height and sports cars.
Vehicles are shipped with the
direction of the front side radar
sensor adjusted for each vehicle to a
