NOTE
Because there may be a difference between the displayed image, such as indicated below,
and the actual conditions when parking, always verify the safety at the rear of the vehicle
and the surrounding area directly with your eyes.
In the image of the parking space (or garage) displayed on the screen, the back end and
distance guide lines may appear aligned in the monitor, but they may not actually be
aligned on the ground.

When parking in a space with a division line on only one side of the parking space, the
division line and the vehicle width guide line appear aligned in the monitor, but they may
not actually be aligned on the ground.
▼ Variance Between Actual Road Conditions and Displayed Image
Some variance occurs between the actual road and the displayed road. Such variance in
distance perspective could lead to an accident. Note the following conditions that may cause
a variance in distance perspective.
When the vehicle is tilted due to the weight of passengers and load
When the vehicle rear is lowered, the object displayed on the screen appears farther than the
actual distance.

When there is a steep grade behind the vehicle
When there is a steep upgrade (downgrade) behind the vehicle, the object displayed on the
screen appears farther (downgrade: closer) than the actual distance.

▼Parking Sensor System Operation
With front ultrasonic sensor an
d front corner ultrasonic sensor
The switch can be activated when the ignition is switched ON, the selector lever is in any
position except reverse (R), and the vehicle speed is about 10 km/h (6 mph) or less.
When the parking sensor switch is pressed, a beep sound is heard, the obstruction detection
indication is displayed in the audio screen, an d the indicator light in the switch illuminates.

Indicator light
NOTE
If the system is cancelled, it will not restor e automatically even when the vehicle speed is
decreased to 10 km/h (6 mph) or less.
When the ignition is switched OFF, the syst em status before it was turned off is
maintained. For example, if th e ignition is switched OFF while the parking sensor is
activated, the system will be activated when the ignition is switched ON the next time.
Sensor detection condition
The system can be used when the ignition is switched ON and the parking sensor switch has
been turned on.
The sensors detect obstructions under the following conditions:
Sensor Condition
Front Ultrasonic Sensor The selector lever is in any position exce
pt reverse (R), and the vehicle speed is
about 10 km/h (6 mph) or less.
Front Corner Ultrasonic
Sensor The vehicle speed is about 10 km/h (6 mph) or less.
Rear Ultrasonic Sensor The selector lever is in reverse (R).
Rear Corner Ultrasonic
Sensor The selector lever is in reverse (R), and the vehicle speed is ab
out 10 km/h (6 mph)
or less.
The system is cancelled under the following conditions:

When the ignition is switched ON and the sele ctor lever is shifted to the reverse (R), the
beep sound activates and the system is enabled for use.
The sensors detect obstructions under the following conditions:
Sensor Condition
Rear Ultrasonic Sensor The selector lever is in reverse (R).
Rear Corner Ultrasonic
Sensor The selector lever is in reverse (R), and
the vehicle speed is about 10 km/h (6 mph)
or less.
▼ Obstruction Detection Indication
The position of a sensor which has detected an obstruction is indicated. The gauge
illuminates in different areas depending on the distance to an obstruction detected by the
sensor.
As the vehicle approaches closer to an obstru
ction, the zone in the gauge closer to the
vehicle illuminates.

When the detection indicator is set to “Display”, even with the 360° view monitor not
displayed, if a front ultrasonic sensor or a front corner ultrasonic sensor detects an
obstruction, the 360° view monitor switches automatically to display. When an obstruction
is no longer detected, the display switches to the display before the obstruction was
detected. However, while the 360° view moni tor is displayed, it continues to display no
matter if an obstruction is detected or not.
