Parking Aids
The side parking aid may not function if:
If the transmission is in drive (D) or any
other forward gear, the side sensing system
provides audible and visual warnings.
When your vehicle is moving slowly,
obstacles are detected within 60 cm
(24 in) and are inside the driving path of
your vehicle. Once your vehicle reaches a
standstill condition, the audible warning
and visual indication stops after a few
seconds.

Locating the Side Parking Aid
Sensors
Note: If you switch traction control off, the
side sensing system also turns off.
To reinitialize the system, drive the length
of your vehicle.
The side parking aid does not detect an
object that is moving toward the side of
your vehicle, for example another vehicle
moving at a low speed, if it does not pass
a front or rear parking aid sensor.
If the transmission is in reverse (R), the side
sensing system provides audible warnings.
When your vehicle is moving slowly,
obstacles are detected within 60 cm
(24 in) and are inside the driving path of
your vehicle. Once your vehicle reaches a
standstill condition, the audible warning
stops after a few seconds. Visual indication
is always present in reverse (R).

The side parking sensors are in the front
and rear bumpers.
Side Parking Aid Audible Warnings
If your vehicle is in neutral (N), the side
sensing system provides visual indication
only when your vehicle is moving slowly
and there is a front or rear park aid
obstacle detected, and the side obstacle
is within 60 cm (24 in) from the side of
your vehicle. Once your vehicle reaches a
stop, the visual indication stops after a few
seconds.
When the side parking aid detects an
object within the coverage area and the
driving path of your vehicle, an audible
warning sounds. As your vehicle moves
closer to the object, the rate of the tone
increases.
