Audible signals for obstacles in front and to
the sides of the vehicle are active when the
vehicle is moving but will cease after the vehi-
cle has been stationary for approx. 2 seconds.
Audible signals for obstacles behind the vehi-
cle will remain active even when the vehicle is
stationary.
The driver is advised to read all sec-
tions in the Owner's Manual about this
function to learn of its limitations,
which the driver must be aware of
before using the function.
If a detected obstacle is within approx. 30 cm
(1 ft) from the front or rear of the vehicle, the
tone will become constant and the active sen-
sor's field closest to the vehicle symbol will be
filled in.
Driver support functions are not a sub-
stitute for the driver's attention and
judgment. The driver is always respon-
sible for ensuring the vehicle is driven
in a safe manner, at the appropriate
speed, with an appropriate distance to
other vehicles, and in accordance with
current traffic rules and regulations.
At distances within approx. 25 cm (0.8 ft)
from an obstacle to the sides of the vehicle, an
rapid pulsing signal will be given and the
active sector fields will change color from
ORANGE to RED.

The marked sector indicates where the obsta-
cle is located. The closer the vehicle symbol is
to a marked sector forward/rearward, the
closer the detected obstacle is to your vehicle.
Besides in the sector closest to the vehicle
symbol, audible warnings are only provided
for objects located directly in the vehicle's
path.
The side sectors change color as the distance
between the vehicle and an object decreases.
