Driving your vehicle
僅 Always look around your vehicle to
make sure there are no pedestrians or
objects before moving the vehicle.
僅 The performance of Reverse Parking
Collision-Avoidance Assist may vary
under certain conditions. If vehicle
speed is above 2 mph (4 km/h), the
function will provide collision avoid-
ance assist only when pedestrians are
detected. Always look around and pay
attention when backing up your vehi-
cle.
僅 Some objects may not be detected by
the rear ultrasonic sensors due to the
objects distance, size or material, all of
which can limit the effectiveness of
the sensor.
僅 Reverse Parking Collision-Avoidance
Assist may not operate properly or
may operate unnecessarily depending
on the road conditions and the sur-
roundings.
僅 Do not solely rely on the function.
Doing so may lead to vehicle damage
or injuries.
CAUTION
僅 Noise may be heard when sudden
braking occurs to avoid a collision.
僅 If any other warning sound such as
the seat belt warning chime is already
generated, Reverse Parking Collision-
Avoidance Assist warning may not
sound.
僅 The function may not work properly if
the bumper has been damaged,
replaced or repaired.
僅 Reverse Parking Collision-Avoidance
Assist may not operate normally if
interfered by strong electromagnetic
waves.

Reverse Parking Collision-Avoidance Assist (PCA)
僅 Playing the vehicle audio system at
high volume may prevent passengers
from hearing Reverse Parking Colli-
sion-Avoidance Assist warning
sounds.
僅 Turn off Reverse Parking Collision-
Avoidance Assist when towing a
trailer. If towing and moving in
reverse, Reverse Parking Collision-
Avoidance Assist will activate as it
detects the trailer.
CAUTION
Take the following precautions to main-
tain optimal performance of the detect-
ing sensors:
僅 Always keep the wide-rear view
camera and rear ultrasonic sensors
clean.
僅 Do not use any cleanser containing
acid or alkaline detergents when
cleaning the wide-rear view camera
lens. Use only a mild soap or neutral
detergent, and rinse thoroughly with
water.
僅 Do not spray the wide-rear view
camera or the rear ultrasonic sensors
or their surrounding area directly with
a high pressure washer. It may cause
the wide-rear view camera or the rear
ultrasonic sensors to malfunction.
僅 Do not apply objects, such as a
bumper sticker or a bumper guard,
near the wide-rear view camera or
rear ultrasonic sensors or apply paint
to the bumper. Doing so may
adversely affect the performance of
the function.
僅 Never disassemble or apply impact on
the wide-rear view camera or the rear
ultrasonic sensors components.
僅 Do not apply unnecessary force on
the wide-rear view camera or the rear
