Driving your vehicle
Detecting Sensor
The rear corner radars are the sen-
sors inside the rear bumper for
detecting the side/rear areas. Always
keep the rear bumper clean for prop-
er operation of the system.
CAUTION
• The driver should always use
extreme caution while operat-
ing the vehicle, whether or not
the warning light on the out-
side rearview mirror illumi-
nates or there is a warning
alarm.
• Playing the vehicle audio sys-
tem at high volume may offset
Blind-Spot Collision Warning
system warning sounds.
• The warning of the Blind-Spot
Collision Warning system may
not sound while other sys-
tem's warning sounds.
ODEP059158
■
Rear corner radars
CAUTION
• The system may not work
properly when the bumper has
been damaged, or if the rear
bumper has been replaced or
repaired.
• The sensing range differs some-
what according to the width of
the road. When the road is nar-
row, the system may detect
other vehicles in the next lane.
• The system may turn off due to
strong electromagnetic waves.
• Always keep the sensor or near
the sensor clean.
• NEVER arbitrarily disassem-
ble the sensor component nor
apply any impact on the sen-
sor component.
• Be careful not to apply unnec-
essary force on the radar sen-
sor or sensor cover. If the sen-
sor is forcibly moved out of
proper alignment, the system
may not operate correctly. In
this case, a warning message
may not be displayed.
