the power switch is changed to ON,
even if an object is along the side of the vehicle, it may not be detected until the vehicle has been driven a
small amount and the side sensors or side cameras completely scan the areas along the sides of the vehicle.
●If a vehicle, person, animal, etc., is detected by a side sensors or side
cameras, but then leaves the detec- tion area of the side sensors or side cameras, the system will assume the
object has not moved.

function may not operate correctly, possibly leading to an accident. Pro-ceed carefully.
●When starting off shortly after the power switch is turned to ON and a
small vehicle or other object which cannot be detected by a front side sensor is next to the vehicle.
In the situation shown in the following
illustration, even if the vehicle starts
off, the vehicle on the left will not be
detected and the object warning func-
tion will not operate.
●When an object or person is in a position which cannot be detected
by the side sensors or side cam- eras.
●When, after the side sensors have completed scanning the areas along the sides of the vehicle, a
vehicle, person, or other object approaches the side of the vehicle and cannot be detected.
