Parking Aids Front and Rear Sensing System The front and rear parking aid sensors turn on automatically when you move the transmission selector lever to R (reverse), D (drive) or S (sport) and your vehicle is moving at a speed of less than 7 mph (12 km/h). Audible warnings will sound when large objects are within the sensor coverage areas of either bumper in the following manner: • You will hear a high-pitched tone from the front audio system speakers when large objects are within the sensor coverage area of your vehicle's front bumper. Moving your vehicle closer to a large object will increase the audible warning repeat rate. • You will hear a lower-pitched tone from the rear audio system speakers when large objects are within the sensor coverage area of your vehicle's rear bumper. Moving your vehicle closer to a large object will increase the audible warning repeat rate. • The parking aid system prioritizes audible warnings based on large objects that are the closest to your vehicle's front or rear bumper. For example, if an object is 24 inches (60 centimeters) from your vehicle's front bumper and at the same time, an object is only 16 inches (40 centimeters) from your vehicle's rear bumper, you will hear the lower-pitched tone from the rear audio system speakers. • You will hear an alternating audible warning from the front and rear audio system speakers if large objects are less than 12 inches (30 centimeters) from your vehicle's front and rear bumpers. • If the object is more than 12 inches (30 centimeters) from the side of your vehicle's bumper area the audible warning will sound for three seconds. If the object is less than 12 inches (30 centimeters) from the side of your vehicle's bumper area the audible warning will sound continuously. A E130382 A The front parking aid sensor coverage area is up to 31 inches (80 centimeters) from the center of your vehicle's front bumper and up to 14 inches (35 centimeters) to the side of your vehicle's front bumper.
