Parking Sensor System On Touring models and Canadian EX-L models Your vehicle has a parking sensor system. The system lets you know the approximate distance between your vehicle and most obstacles while you are parking. When the system is on and your vehicle is nearing an obstacle, you will hear a beeping and see parking sensor indicators on the multi-information display or the instrument panel, depending on models. All obstacles may not always be sensed. Even when the system is on, you should look for obstacles near your vehicle to make sure it is safe to park. The system has two front corner sensors, two rear corner sensors, and two rear center sensors. The rear center sensors work when the shift lever is in reverse (R), and the vehicle speed is less than 5 mph (8 km/h). The corner sensors work only when the shift lever is in any position other than P and the vehicle speed is less than 5 mph (8 km/h). PARKING SENSOR SYSTEM SWITCH To activate the system, push the switch on the dashboard with the ignition in the ON (II) position. The indicator in the switch comes on when the system is on. To turn the system off, push the switch again. 486 2011 Odyssey
