Conditions under which the RCTA func-
tion may not function correctly
●
The RCTA function may not detect vehi-
cles correctly in the following situations:
• When the sensor is misaligned due to a
strong impact to the sensor or its sur-
rounding area
• When mud, snow, ice, a sticker, etc. is
covering the sensor or surrounding area
on the rear bumper
• When driving on a road surface that is
wet with standing water during bad
weather, such as heavy rain, snow, or fog
• When multiple vehicles are approaching
with only a small gap between each vehi-
cle
• When a vehicle is approaching at high
speed
• When backing up on a slope with a sharp
change in grade
• When backing out of a shallow angle
parking spot
• Immediately after the BSM main switch is
turned on
• Immediately after the engine is started
with the BSM main switch on
• When the sensors cannot detect a vehi-
cle due to obstructions
●
Instances of the RCTA function unneces-
sarily detecting a vehicle and/or object
may increase in the following situations:
• When a vehicle passes by the side of your
vehicle
• When the parking space faces a street
and vehicles are being driven on the
street
• When the distance between your vehicle
and metal objects, such as a guardrail,
wall, sign, or parked vehicle, which may
reflect electrical waves toward the rear of
the vehicle, is short
