case , automatic braking will not operate .
. The system may not be able to detect 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 . – Pedestrians – Moving objects including moving vehicles – Objects which absorb 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 out of range of the center of the vehicle in the horizontal direction .
|
– Objects that are not perpendicular to the ground .
– The surface of the object is uneven or wavy .
. The system may not be able to properly detect objects or may cause a system malfunction when the following conditions exist .
High frequency sound from other sources are nearby : – Horn sounds from other vehicles . – Engine sounds from other vehicles . – Sounds of air brakes – Vehicle detection equipment or a sonar from other vehicles
– A sound wave with a frequency similar to the vehicle ’ s system is transmitted nearby .
– A vehicle equipped with the same system is reversing toward your reversing direction .
Weather conditions :
– Extremely high or extremely low temperatures in which the area near the sonar sensor becomes too hot or too cold to operate .
– The sonar sensors or the rear bumper near the sonar sensors is exposed to heavy rain or a significant

amount of water . – Fog , snow or sandstorm , etc . – Air is moving rapidly such as when a strong wind is blowing .
Parts attached to the rear bumper near the sonar sensor : – Commercial electronic parts ( fog light , fender pole , radio antenna ) or commercial attachment parts ( trailer hitch , bicycle carrier , bumper guard ) are attached .
– Parts that emit high frequency sound , such as a horn or speaker , are attached .
Vehicle conditions : – The vehicle is significantly inclined . – The ground clearance is significantly reduced due to the vehicle ’ s loading condition , etc .
– When the sonar sensor is misaligned due to a collision or an accident .
Surrounding environment :
– A cloth banner , flag , hanging branch or railroad crossing bars are present in the reversing direction .
– When reversing on a gravel or grassy area .
