Parking Sensor System
The parking sensors use ultrasonic sensors which detect obstructions around the
vehicle when the vehicle is driven at low speeds, such as during garage or parallel
parking, and a buzzer sound and detection indicator notify the driver of the
approximate distance from the vehicle to the surrounding obstruction.
WARNING
Do not rely completely on the parking sensor system and be sure to
confirm
the
safety around your vehicle visually when driving:
This system can assist the driver in operating the vehicle in the forward and
backward directions while parking. The detection ranges of the sensors are limited,
therefore, driving the vehicle while relying only on the system may cause an
accident. Always confirm the safety around your vehicle visually when driving.
CAUTION
Do not install any accessories within the detection ranges of the sensors. It may
aect the system operation.
Depending on the type of obstruction and the surrounding conditions, the
detection range of a sensor may narrow, or the sensors may not be able to detect
obstructions.
When washing the vehicle, do not spray highly pressurized water against the
sensor area, or rub it strongly. Otherwise, it may not be able to detect obstructions
correctly and the system may not operate normally.
NOTE
When the ignition is switched OFF, the system status before it was turned
o
is
maintained. For example, if the ignition is switched OFF while the parking sensor
is activated, the system will be activated when the ignition is switched ON the
next time.
The system may not operate normally under the following conditions:
Mud, ice, or snow is adhering to the sensor area (Returns to normal operation
when removed).
The sensor area is frozen (Returns to normal operation when the ice is thawed).
The sensor is covered by a hand.
The sensor is excessively shocked.
The vehicle is excessively tilted.
Under extremely hot or cold weather conditions.
The vehicle is driven on bumps, inclines, gravel, grating, or grass covered roads.
