Parking Sensor System
*
The parking sensor system uses ultrasonic sensors to detect obstructions around the vehicle
while parking the vehicle in a garage or during parallel parking when the selector lever
is in reverse (R). The system is equipped with an assist device to notify the driver of the
approximate distance from the vehicle to the surrounding obstruction using a beep sound
and obstruction detection indication.

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 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.
NOTE
Do not install any accessories within the detection ranges of the sensors. It may affect 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.
