The instrument cluster may have a
parking assist display with bars that
show distance to object and object
location information for the Front
and Rear Parking Assist system. As
the object gets closer, more bars
light up and the bars change colour
from yellow to amber to red.
When an object is first detected in
the rear, one beep will be heard
from the rear, or both sides of the
Safety Alert Seat will pulse two
times. When an object is very close
(<0.6 m (2 ft) in the vehicle rear,
or <0.3 m (1 ft) in the vehicle front),
a continuous beep will sound from
the front or rear depending on
object location, or both sides of the
Safety Alert Seat will pulse five
times. Beeps for FPA are higher
pitched than for RPA.
Reversing Warning and Rear
Automatic Braking
Vehicles with Adaptive Cruise
Control (ACC) have the Reversing
Warning and Rear Automatic
Braking (RAB) system. The
Reversing Warning part of this
system can warn of rear objects
when reversing up at speeds
greater than 8 km/h (5 mph).
The Reversing Warning System will
beep once from the rear when an
object is first detected, or pulse
twice on both sides of the Safety
Alert Seat. When the system
detects a potential crash, beeps will
be heard from the rear, or five
pulses will be felt on both sides of
the Safety Alert Seat. There may
also be a brief, sharp application of
the brakes.
Driving and Operating
Warning
The Reversing Warning System
only operates at speeds greater
than 8 km/h (5 mph). It does not
detect children, pedestrians,
bicyclists, animals, or objects
below the bumper or that are too
close or too far from the vehicle.
In some situations, such as at
higher reversing speeds, there
may not be enough time for the
short, sharp application of the
vehicle brake system to occur. To
prevent injury, death, or vehicle
damage, even with the Reversing
Warning System, always check
the area around the vehicle and
check all mirrors before reversing.
When the vehicle is in R (Reverse)
and if it is reversing too fast to avoid
a crash with a detected object
directly behind the vehicle, the Rear
Automatic Braking (RAB) system
9-55
