● The RCTA function is on.
● The shift lever is in R.
● The vehicle speed is less than approxi-
mately 8 km/h (5 mph).
● The approaching vehicle speed is
between approximately 8 km/h (5 mph)
and 28 km/h (18 mph).
■ Setting the buzzer volume
The buzzer volume can be adjusted on the
multi-information display. (P.274)
■ Conditions under which the RCTA func-
tion will not detect a vehicle

covering the sensor or surrounding area
on the rear bumper
