Features of your vehicle

The rear parking assist system
assists the driver during backward
movement of the vehicle by chiming if
any object is sensed within a distance
of 47 in. (120 cm) behind the vehicle.
This system is a supplemental system
and it is not intended to nor does it
replace the need for extreme care and
attention of the driver. The sensing
range and objects detectable by the
back sensors are limited. Whenever
backing-up, pay as much attention to
what is behind you as you would in a
vehicle without a rear parking assist
system.

Operation of the rear parking
assist system

Operating condition

• This system will activate when the

indicator on the rear parking assist
OFF button is not illuminated. If
you desire to deactivate the rear
parking assist system, press the
rear parking assist OFF button
again. (The indicator on the button
will illuminate.) To turn the system
on, press the button again. (The
indicator on the button will go off.)
If the vehicle is moving at a speed
over 3 mph (5 km/h), the system
may not be activated correctly.

REAR PARKING ASSIST SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)

WARNING -

Rear parking
assist system

Never rely solely on the rear
parking assist system. Always
perform a visual inspection to
make sure the vehicle is clear of
all obstructions before moving
the vehicle in any direction. Stop
immediately if you are aware of
a child anywhere near your vehi-
cle. Some objects may not be
detected by the sensors, due to
the object's size or material.

• This system will activate when

backing up with the ignition switch
ON.
If the vehicle is moving at a speed
over 3 mph (5 km/h), the system
may not be activated correctly.

• The sensing distance while the

back-up warning system is in oper-
ation is approximately 47 in. (120
cm) at the rear bumper center
area, 23.5 in. (60 cm) at the rear
bumper both side area.

• When more than two objects are

sensed at the same time, the clos-
est one will be recognized first.

Types of warning sound

• When an object is 47 in. to 24 in.

(120 cm to 61 cm) from the rear
bumper: Buzzer beeps intermit-
tently.

• When an object is 24 in. to 12 in.

(60 cm to 31 cm) from the rear
bumper: Buzzer beeps more fre-
quently.

• When an object is within 12 in. (30

cm) of the rear bumper:
Buzzer sounds continuously.

Non-operational conditions of
rear parking assist system

The rear parking assist system
may not operate properly when:
1. Moisture is frozen to the sensor. (It

will operate normally when the
moisture has been cleared.)

2. The sensor is covered with foreign

matter, such as snow or water, or
the sensor cover is blocked. (It will
operate normally when the materi-
al is removed or the sensor is no
longer blocked.)

3. Driving on uneven road surfaces

(unpaved roads, gravel, bumps,
gradient).

4. Objects generating excessive

noise (vehicle horns, loud motor-
cycle engines, or truck air brakes)
are within range of the sensor.

5. Heavy rain or water spray exists.
6. Wireless transmitters or mobile

phones are within range of the
sensor.

7. The sensor is covered with snow.
8. Trailer towing

4 123

Features of your vehicle

The detecting range may decrease
when:
1. The sensor is stained with foreign

matter such as snow or water.
(The sensing range will return to
normal when removed.)

2. Outside air temperature is

extremely hot or cold.

The following objects may not be
recognized by the sensor:
1. Sharp or slim objects such as

ropes, chains or small poles.

2. Objects which tend to absorb the

sensor frequency such as clothes,
spongy material or snow.

3. Undetectable objects smaller than

40 in. (1 m) in height and narrower
than 6 in. (14 cm) in diameter.

Rear parking assist system
precautions

• The rear parking assist system

may not sound consistently
depending on the speed and
shapes of the objects detected.

• The rear parking assist system may

malfunction if the vehicle bumper
height or sensor installation has
been modified or damaged. Any
non-factory installed equipment or
accessories may also interfere with
the sensor performance.

• The sensor may not recognize

objects less than 15 in. (40 cm)
from the sensor, or it may sense an
incorrect distance. Use caution.

• When the sensor is frozen or

SOILED with snow, dirt, or water,
the sensor may be inoperative until
the MATERIAL IS removed using a
soft cloth.

• Do not push, scratch or strike the

sensor. Sensor damage could
occur.

✽

✽

NOTICE

This system can only sense objects
within the range and location of the
sensors. It cannot detect objects in
other areas where sensors are not
installed. Also, small or slim objects,
such as poles or objects located
between sensors may not be detected
by the sensors.
Always visually check behind the
vehicle when backing up.
Be sure to inform any drivers of the
vehicle that may be unfamiliar with
the system regarding the systems
capabilities and limitations.

Features of your vehicle

The rearview camera will activate
with the ignition switch ON and the
shift lever in the R (Reverse) position.

This system is a supplemental sys-
tem that shows behind the vehicle
through the rearview display mirror
while backing up unless equipped

function only. It is the responsibility
of the driver to always check the
inside/outside rearview mirrors and
the area behind the vehicle before
and while backing up because
there is a dead zone that can't be
seen by the camera.

• Always keep the camera lens

clean. If lens is covered with for-
eign matter, the camera may not
operate normally.

REARVIEW CAMERA (IF EQUIPPED)

WARNING -

Backing up &
using camera

Never rely solely on the rear view
camera when backing up. You
must always view the areas
behind you including looking
over both shoulders as well as
continuously checking all three

4 131

Features of your vehicle

Battery saver function

• The purpose of this feature is to

prevent the battery from being dis-
charged if the lights are left in the
ON position. The system automati-
cally shuts off the parking lights 30
seconds after the ignition key is
removed and the driver’s door is
opened and closed.

• With this feature, the parking lights

will turn off automatically if the driver
parks on the side of the road at night
and opens the driver’s side door.
If necessary, to keep the parking
lights on when the ignition key is
removed, perform the following:
1) Open the driver-side door.
2) Turn the parking lights OFF and

ON again using the light switch
on the steering column.

Headlight escort function

If you turn the ignition switch to the
ACC or OFF position with the head-
lights ON, the headlights remain on
for about 5 minutes. However, if the
driver's door is opened and closed,
the headlights are turned off after 15
seconds.
The headlights can be turned off by
pressing the lock button on the trans-
mitter (or smart key) twice or turning
the light switch to the OFF position.
If the driver gets out of the vehicle
through other doors (except driver’s
door), the battery saver function
does not operate and the headlight
escort function does not turn off
automatically. Therefore, It causes
the battery to be discharged. In this
case, make sure to turn off the lamp
before getting out of the vehicle.

Lighting control

The light switch has a Headlight and
a Parking light position.
To operate the lights, turn the knob at
the end of the control lever to one of
the following positions:
(1) OFF position
(2) Auto light position (if equipped)
(3) Position & Tail light
(4) Headlight position
