The sensing system warns the driver of obstacles within a certain range
of the bumper area. The system turns on automatically whenever the
ignition is switched on.

When receiving a detection warning, the radio volume is reduced to a
predetermined level. After the warning goes away, the radio volume
returns to the previous level.

Using the Front and Rear Sensing System

Rear Sensing System

The rear sensors are only active when the transmission is in R (Reverse).
As the vehicle moves closer to the obstacle, the rate of the audible
warning increases. When the obstacle is fewer than 10 inches (25
centimeters) away, the warning sounds continuously. If a stationary or
receding object is detected farther than 10 inches (25 centimeters) from
the side of the vehicle, the tone sounds for only three seconds. Once the
system detects an object approaching, the warning sounds again.

A. Coverage area of up to 6 feet
(2 meters) from the rear bumper
(with a decreased coverage area at
the outer corners of the bumper).

The system detects certain objects while the transmission is in R
(Reverse):
• and moving toward a stationary object at a speed of 3 mph (5 km/h)

or less.

• but not moving, and a moving object is approaching the rear of the

vehicle at a speed of 3 mph (5 km/h) or less.

• and moving at a speed of less than 3 mph (5 km/h) and a moving

object is approaching the rear of the vehicle at a speed of less than
3 mph (5 km/h).
