of rear objects at vehicle speeds greater
than 8 km/h (5 mph), and RAB may
automatically brake hard at speeds between
1-32 km/h (0.5-20 mph).
The Backing Warning System will beep once
from the rear when an object is first
detected, or pulse twice on both sides of the
Safety Alert Seat. When the system detects
a potential crash, beeps will be heard from
the rear, or five pulses will be felt on both
sides of the Safety Alert Seat. There may
also be a brief, sharp application of the

situations, such as at higher backing
speeds, there may not be enough time
for the short, sharp application of the
vehicle brake system to occur. To prevent
injury, death, or vehicle damage, even
with the Backing Warning System, always
check the area around the vehicle and
check all mirrors before backing.
