A large deviation in the installation
position of a rear side radar sensor on
the vehicle has occurred.

There is a large accumulation of snow
or ice on the rear bumper near a rear
side radar sensor.

Driving on snow-covered roads for
long periods.

The temperature near the radar
sensors becomes extremely hot due to
driving for long periods on slopes
during the summer.

The battery voltage has decreased.

Under the following conditions, the rear
side radar sensor cannot detect target
objects or it may be difficult to detect
them.

The rear side radar sensor detection
area is obstructed by a nearby wall or
parked vehicle. (Reverse the vehicle to
a position where the radar sensor
detection area is no longer
obstructed.)

A vehicle is approaching directly from
the rear of your vehicle.

1. Your vehicle

 

The vehicle is parked on a slant.

1. Your vehicle

Directly after the SBS-RC system
becomes operable using the
personalization feature.

Radio wave interference from a radar
sensor equipped on a nearby parked
vehicle.

Turn off the SBS-RC system while
pulling a trailer or while an accessory
such as a bicycle carrier is installed to
the rear of the vehicle. Otherwise, the
radio waves emitted by the radar will be
blocked causing the system to not
operate normally.

In the following cases, a rear radar and
rear camera may detect something as a
target obstruction which could cause the
SBS-RC system to operate.

Hanging curtains, gate poles such as
at toll gates and railroad crossing.
