Rear Pedestrian Alert

Under certain conditions, this feature
can provide alerts for a pedestrian
within the system s range directly
behind the vehicle. This feature only
works in R (Reverse) below 12 km/h
(8 mph), and detects pedestrians up to
8 m (26 ft) away during daytime
driving. During nighttime driving,
feature performance is very limited.

When a pedestrian is detected within
the system s range directly behind the
vehicle, this symbol flashes amber on

of the driver seat. When a pedestrian
is detected close to the vehicle, the
symbol flashes red on the
infotainment display, along with seven
beeps from the rear, or if equipped,
seven pulses from both sides of the
driver seat.
