WARNING
• Forward/Reverse Parking Distance
Warning is a supplemental system.
The operation of the system can be
affected by several factors (including
environmental conditions). It is the
responsibility of the driver to always
check the front and rear views before
and while parking.
• Your new vehicle warranty does not
cover any accidents or damage to
the vehicle due to the malfunction of
Forward/Reverse Parking Distance
Warning.
• Pay close attention when driving near
objects, pedestrians, and especially
children. Some objects may not be
detected by the ultrasonic sensors,
due to the objects distance, size or
material, all of which can limit the
effectiveness of the sensor.
