installed behind the rear
bumper. This function is
intended to assist the driver
in checking areas that are
not easily visible when
backing up.
WARNING
■ Cautions regarding the use of
the system
The driver is solely responsible for
safe driving. Always drive safely,
taking care to observe your sur-
roundings. The RCTA function is
only a supplementary function
which alerts the driver that a vehi-
cle is approaching from the right
or left at the rear of the vehicle. As
the RCTA function may not func-
tion correctly under certain condi-
tions, the driver's own visual
confirmation of safety is neces-
sary. Over reliance on this func-
tion may lead to an accident
resulting death or serious injury.
