Forward/Reverse Parking Distance
Warning assists the driver during move-
ment of the vehicle by chiming if any
object is sensed within the distance of
100 cm (40 inches) in front and 120 cm
(48 inches) behind the vehicle.
This function is a supplemental function
and it is not intended to nor does it
replace the need for extreme care and
attention of the driver.
The sensing range and objects detect-
able by the sensors are limited. When-
ever moving pay as much attention to
what is in front and behind of you as you
would in a vehicle without a Forward/
Reverse Parking Distance Warning.
