the detected obstacle and the distance from the vehicle. The alert
sound level will vary proportional to the distance. Smaller the
distance shorter the interval between the beeps.
Four RPAS sensors are located at the rear bumper to provide
complete rear view to the driver for hassle free parking.
Magnetic devices present in the detection range could vastly
affect the sensor performance and the distance displayed may
not be accurate.
8.37.1 Working Principle
• On engaging the gear in reverse, the RPAS system gets
activated automatically and the vehicle image appears in the
infotainment screen. Display bars below the car image indicate
the obstacles behind the vehicle
• When the obstacle comes in the sensing zone, the system starts
giving the indication based on the distance and direction of the
obstacle as defined in the detecting zones. The closer the
obstacle, more display bars are illuminated
RPAS Information on Infotainment Screen
RPAS display on the infotainment screen gives the following
information:
• Left zone indicates obstacle on the left hand side
• Center zone indicates obstacle in the center
• Right zone indicates obstacle on the right hand side
Display bars 1, 2, 3 and 4 indicate how close the obstacle is from
the vehicle rear bumper, with bar 1 being very close and bar 4
being distant. The infotainment screen display’s a STOP! symbol if
the obstacle is less than 50 cm from the vehicle rear bumper.
