How the Backup Sensors Work

Backup Sensors

The sensors are ready for operation when the shift
lever is moved to the reverse position.

Operation of the sensors is dependent upon the
ultrasonic waves they emit. They calculate the
distance between the sensor and a rear obstacle by
measuring the time until the ultrasonic waves reach
the sensor after being reflected by the obstacle.

The sensors are designed to give you an audible
signal when the rear bumper of your vehicle is
approaching an obstacle.

The audible signal has three sounds:
