The system is equipped with an assist
device to notify the driver of the
approximate distance from the vehicle
to the surrounding obstruction using a
audible alert.
Note:
Do not install any accessories within
the detection ranges of the sensors. It
may affect the system operation.
Depending on the type of
obstruction and the surrounding
conditions, the detection range of a
sensor may narrow, or the sensors
may not be able to detect
obstructions.
The system may not operate
normally under the following
conditions:
Mud, ice, or snow adhered to the
sensor area (operation will return to
normal when removed).
The sensor area is frozen (operation
will return to normal when the ice is
thawed).
The sensor is covered by a hand or
excessive force has been applied to
the bumper.
The vehicle is on a steep incline.
Under extremely hot or cold
weather conditions.
The vehicle is driven on bumps,
inclines, gravel, or grass covered
roads.
Anything which generates
ultrasound is near the vehicle, such as
another vehicle's horn, the engine
sound of a motorcycle, the air brakes
of a large-sized vehicle, or another
vehicle's sensors.
The vehicle is driven in heavy rain or
in road conditions causing water
splash.
A antenna for a radio transmitter is
installed to the vehicle.
The vehicle is moving towards a tall
or square curbstone.
An obstruction is too close to the
sensor.
The following types of obstructions
may not be detected:
Thin objects such as wire or rope.
Things which absorb sonic waves
easily such as rain or snow.
Angular shaped objects.
Very tall objects, and those which
are wide at the top.
Small, short objects.
Obstructions under the bumper
may not be detected. Obstructions
that are lower than the bumper or thin
which may have been initially detected
but are no longer detected as the
vehicle approaches more closely.
Always have the system inspected
by an authorized dealer if any force is
applied to the bumpers, even in a
minor accident. If the sensors have
been repositioned in any way, they
cannot detect obstructions.
The system may have a malfunction
if the audible signal does not operate.
Contact an authorized dealer.
The beeper which indicates a
system malfunction may not be heard
if the ambient temperature is extremely
cold, or mud, ice, or snow adheres to
the sensor area. Remove any foreign
material from the sensor area.
When installing a trailer hitch,
contact an authorized dealer.
