Cross Traffic Monitor

Alerts you if a detected vehicle is approaching from a rear corner when your vehicle
is in Reverse (R) at speeds of 3 mph (5 km/h) or lower, which can be helpful when
backing out of parking spaces.
The system does not provide alerts for a vehicle that is moving away from your
vehicle, and it may not detect pedestrians, bicycles, or stationary objects.
Turning the System On or Off
1. Press SETTINGS.
2. Select Camera Settings.
3. Select Cross Traffic Monitor.
4. Select On or Off.
5. Press BACK to exit the menu.
CAUTION
This system cannot detect all approaching vehicles and may not detect an
approaching vehicle at all.
Failure to visually confirm that it is safe to back up the vehicle before doing
so may result in a collision.
Do not solely rely on the system when reversing; always also use your
mirrors, and look behind and to the sides of your vehicle before reversing.
