CAUTION
. Excessive noise (such as audio
system volume or an open vehi-
cle window) will interfere with the
tone and it may not be heard.
. Keep the sonar sensors (located
on the bumper fascia) free from
snow, ice and large accumula-
tions of dirt. Do not clean the
sensors with sharp objects. If the
sensors are covered, the accuracy
of the sonar function will be
diminished.

SYSTEM OPERATION
For models without side sonar sensors:
The system informs with a visual and
audible alert of:
. front obstacles when the shift lever is
in the D (Drive) position
. front and rear obstacles when the
shift lever is in the R (Reverse) position
For models with side sonar sensors:
The system informs with a visual and
audible alert of obstacles in the traveling
direction, when the sensor detects them
within its detection range.
The system informs with a visual and
audible alert of potential obstacles near
the side of the vehicle. The driver will only
be notified of side obstacles located out
of detection range of the front and rear
sonar sensors if they were previously
detected as the vehicle traveled towards
them.
How the system alert of obstacles:
The system is deactivated at speeds
above 6 MPH (10 km/h). It is reactivated
at lower speeds.
The intermittent tone will stop after
several seconds when the obstacle is
identified only with the center sensor.
The tone will stop when the obstacle gets
away from the vehicle.
When the object is detected, the indicator
(green) appears and blinks and the tone
sounds intermittently. When the vehicle
moves closer to the object, the color of
the indicator turns yellow and the rate of
the blinking increases. When the vehicle is
very close to the object, the indicator
stops blinking and turns red, and the tone
sounds continuously.
