equipped)
Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA) detects
presence of a vehicle the rear at right or
left and tells you of the presence through
indicator in the information display and an
interior buzzer. This system assists when
backing up.
WARNING
• The RCTA is a supplemental device
to tell you the existence of a vehi-
cle approaching from the left and
right rear when backing up. How-
ever, your responsibility for safety
driving is the most important mat-
ter. You must checking around it
using your direct vision or mirrors.
• Depending on the circumstances,
the system may not work. Do not
rely excessively on the system and
always drive in a safe manner. Over
reliance on this function may lead
to an accident.
While your vehicle is backing up, approaching vehicle from the rear at right or left is
detected by the radar sensor and the presence is told to you. When the approaching vehi-
cle is detected, an interior buzzer sounds and the information display is indicated.
