WARNINGS
The system may not detect small or
moving objects, particularly those
close to the ground.
The system warns you of objects that are
within the detection zone of the bumper
areas. When you switch the ignition on,
the system automatically turns on. The
system becomes active when you shift into
reverse (R) and the speed of your vehicle
is 7 mph (12 km/h) or less.

A Rear detection zone: Up to 72 in
(180 cm) from the rear bumper.
Note: Accessories that block the detection
zone of the system may create false alerts.
Note: Keep the sensors free from snow, ice
and large accumulations of dirt.
Note: If your vehicle sustains damage
leaving the sensors misaligned, this will
cause inaccurate measurements or false
alerts.

(If Equipped)
A tone will sound in the following manner
when objects are near the front or rear
bumpers:
• Objects detected by the rear sensors
produce a low-pitched tone.
• An alert will only sound for three
seconds if an object is further than 12 in
(30 cm) from the side of your vehicle.
The system detects objects when you shift
into reverse (R) and:
• Your vehicle is moving toward a
stationary object at a speed of 3 mph
(5 km/h) or less.
• Your vehicle is stationary but an object
is approaching your vehicle at a speed
of 3 mph (5 km/h) or less.
• Your vehicle is moving at a speed of
3 mph (5 km/h) or less, and an object
is approaching your vehicle at a speed
of 3 mph (5 km/h) or less.
Note: The rate of the tone increases as your
vehicle moves closer to an object.
When the parking aid system sounds a
tone, the audio system may reduce the set
volume. When the warning ends, the audio
system returns to the previously set
volume.
Note: Volume reduction is not a standard
feature of all audio systems.
