Warning
The parking assist system does
not detect children, pedestrians,
cyclists, animals, or objects
located below the bumper or that
are too close or too far from the
vehicle. It is not available at
speeds greater than 8 km/h. To
prevent injury, death, or vehicle
damage, even with parking assist,
always check the area around the
vehicle and check all mirrors
before moving forward or
reversing.
How the System Works
When the vehicle is shifted into
R (Reverse) the park assist sensors
are automatically turned on. After
the vehicle is shifted out of
R (Reverse), the Rear Parking
Assist is turned off and the Front
Parking Assist stays on until the
vehicle is above a speed of 8 km/h.
For Front Parking Assist to be active
again without shifting into
R (Reverse), the park assist button
in the overhead console must be
pressed. See
“
Turning the System
On and Off
”
later in this section.
When the vehicle is in N (Neutral),
the system may be active. The
Parking Assist system may need to
be turned off during a car wash to
avoid repeating alerts. See
“
Turning
the System On and Off
”
later in this
section to turn the system off.
For vehicles with UFRPA,
high-toned beeps from the front
speakers are for objects detected
near the front bumper. Low-toned
beeps from the rear speakers are
for objects detected near the rear
bumper. The interval between the
beeps becomes shorter as the
vehicle gets closer to the obstacle.
When the distance is less than
30 cm the beeping is a continuous
tone for five seconds.
Objects Detected by Both the
Front and Rear Sensors
In general, if objects are detected at
the same time near both the front
and rear bumpers while backing up,
the beeps only sound to indicate
that objects are close to the rear
bumper.
However, if an object comes within
0.3 m of the front bumper while the
vehicle is backing up and at the
same time there is another object
further than 0.3 m from the rear
bumper, then the beeps only sound
to indicate the object that is closer
to the front bumper.
Turning the System On and Off
The system can be turned on and
off by pressing the park assist
button located in the overhead
console.
