● When there is a malfunction in a sensor
or the system is temporarily unavailable.
● When the operating function is disabled
manually.

■ Conditions under which the system will
not detect a vehicle
The RCTA function is not designed to
detect the following types of vehicles and/or
objects:
● Vehicles approaching from directly
behind
● Vehicles backing up in a parking space
next to your vehicle

due to obstructions
● Guardrails, walls, signs, parked vehicles
and similar stationary objects
*
● Small motorcycles, bicycles, pedestrians,
etc.
*
● Vehicles moving away from your vehicle
● Vehicles approaching from the parking
spaces next to your vehicle
*
● The distance between the sensor and
approaching vehicle gets too close
*
: Depending on the conditions, detection
of a vehicle and/or object may occur.
■ Situations in which the system may not
operate properly
The RCTA function may not detect vehicles
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 position above 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
