Limitations of Cross Traffic Alert
90
The CTA
function may have limitations in cer-
89
tain situations.
CTA does not perform optimally in all situations
but has some limitations. For example, the CTA
sensors cannot "see" through other parked vehi-
cles or obstructing obstacles.
Here are some examples of situations where
CTA's "field of vision" may be already limited and
approaching vehicles cannot therefore be
detected until they are very close:
The car is parked deep inside a parking slot.
DRIVER SUPPORT
In an angled parking slot CTA may be completely "blind"
on one side.
Blind CTA sector.
Sector in which CTA can detect/"see".
However, as your car slowly reverses, the angle it
makes with the obstructing vehicle/object
changes and the blind sector rapidly decreases.
