SBZA can be disabled through vehicle personalization. See "Collision/Detection Systems" under Vehicle Personalization on page 5-30.

Perceived distances may be different from actual distances. Do not back the vehicle using only the RVC screen. Failure to use proper care before backing may result in injury, death, or vehicle damage. Always check behind and around the vehicle before backing.
