Controls in detail Driving systems Sensors Center Corners approx. 59.1 in (150 cm) approx. 40 in (100 cm) Warning indicator Visual signals indicate to the driver the relative distance between the sensors and an obstacle. The warning indicator is located next to the tailgate. The warning indicator is divided into four yellow, and two red distance segments 1. The Rear Parking Assist system is ready when you hear a signal and the readiness indicator 2 is illuminated. As your vehicle approaches an object, one or more distance segments will illuminate, depending on the distance. When the sixth distance segment illuminates, you have reached the minimum distance. An intermittent acoustic warning will sound when the fourth yellow distance segment illuminates. This signal quickens with each additional distance segment illuminated. When all distance segments illuminate, the acoustic warning becomes a constant signal. The signal is canceled when the gear selector lever is moved to drive position D or park position P. Minimum distance Center Corners approx. 7.9 in (20 cm) approx. 7.9 in (20 cm) If the system detects an obstacle in this range, all the distance segments in the warning indicator ( page 202) illuminate and you hear a warning signal. If the obstacle is closer than the minimum distance, the actual distance may no longer be indicated by the system. Warning indicator 1 Distance segments 2 Readiness indicator 202
