– The ground clearance is changed due to the vehicle’ s loading condition or modification.
– There is damage to the sonar sensors or the rear bumper.
– The rear bumper is exposed to strong impact, or the rear bumper is deformed.
. On a steep hill, the system’ s automatic braking ability will be reduced.
. The system is designed to avoid collisions by automatic hard braking when the vehicle’ s reversing speed is less than approximately 3 mph( 5 km / h). However, the system does not guarantee that the vehicle will be
able to avoid collisions in any situation.
. If the vehicle is reversed at an extremely slow speed, the driver’ s operation may be prioritized. In this case, automatic braking will not operate.
. In the following situations, the system may not be able to detect an object correctly: – When the vehicle is approaching diagonally to an object – When the steering wheel is turned greatly
. The system may not be able to detect and apply the brake with the following objects. – Sharp or thin objects such as poles, fences and ropes which may not reflect the sound wave emitted from the sonar sensor.
– Objects that are too close to the rear bumper when the select lever is set to the“ R” position.
– Objects with a surface which may not reflect the sound wave emitted from the sonar sensor such as a chain link fence.
. Objects the system is not designed to detect and apply brake. – Pedestrians. – Moving objects including moving
vehicles. – Objects which absorbs sound waves such as cloth or snow. – Objects whose surface has a diagonal angle. – Objects that are low to the ground such as parking blocks.
– Objects that are high above the ground such as objects hanging from above.
– Objects that are not perpendicular to the ground.
– The surface of the object is uneven or wavy.
