Tips for using the back-in parking assist mode
Leave a gap of approximately 1 m
1
(3.3 ft.) from any parked vehicles and
approach the target parking spot. If
the gap between your vehicle and any
parked vehicles is too large, the front
side sensors and rear side sensors
may not be able to detect the parked
vehicles.
Stop so that the center of the target
2
parking spot is perpendicular to the
vehicle. Furthermore, only push the
S-IPA switch when the vehicle is at a
complete stop.
NOTICE
●
If the road surface has any dips or inclines, the target parking spot cannot
be correctly set. Therefore, the vehicle may be parked at an angle or may
deviate from the parking spot. In these cases, do not use the back-in park-
ing assist mode.
●
When parking in a narrow space, the vehicle will come close to adjacent
vehicles. If it seems the vehicle may make contact, stop the vehicle by
depressing the brake pedal.
●
It may not be possible to detect objects that are low to the ground. Directly
confirm the safety of your surroundings and, if it seems the vehicle may
make contact with an obstacle, stop the vehicle by depressing the brake
pedal.
●
Depending on the surrounding environment, such as other parked vehi-
cles, the vehicle may be parked at an angle or may deviate from the park-
ing spot. Manually adjust vehicle alignment as necessary.
