Parking Sensors (if equipped)

• The parking sensor system uses ultra-
sonic sensors to detect obstacles near
the rear bumpers. If obstacles are
sensed while you are parking or moving
the vehicle slowly, the system warns you
by sounding a buzzer.
• The system emits an ultrasonic wave
and the relevant sensor detects the
return of the wave reflected by an obsta-
cle. The system measures the time
taken by the ultrasonic wave to reach the
obstacle and return from it, from which it
determines the obstacle's position.
• The parking sensor function can be used
when the ignition switch is turned to the
"ON" or the engine switch is pressed to
change the ignition mode to "ON", the
gearshift lever is in the "R" position and
the parking sensor switch is in the "ON"
position. This function is helpful in the
following cases: pulling over to the curb;
parallel-parking the vehicle; steering the
vehicle into a garage; driving along an
alley; and moving slowly in a place with
obstacles.
