WARNING ● The sonar (parking sensor) is a convenience feature. It is not a substitute for proper parking. ● The system is deactivated at speeds above 6 mph (10 km/h). It is reactivated at lower speeds. ● The driver is always responsible for safety during parking and other maneuvers. ● Always look around and check that it is safe to move before parking. LHA2549 ● The system is not designed to prevent contact with small or moving objects. ● The system will not detect small objects below the bumper, and may not detect objects close to the bumper or on the ground. ● The system may not detect the following objects: - Fluffy objects such as snow, cloth, cotton, glass or wool. - Thin objects such as rope, wire or chain. - Wedge-shaped objects. ● If your vehicle sustains damage to the bumper fascia, leaving it misaligned or bent, the sensing zone may be altered causing inaccurate measurement of objects or false alarms. PARKING SENSOR (if so equipped) REAR CENTER SONAR (if so equipped) The sonar (parking sensor) sounds a tone to inform the driver of obstacles near the bumper. The colors of the sonar indicators and the distance guide lines in the rear view indicate different distances to the object. ● Read and understand the limitations of the sonar (parking sensor) as contained in this section. ● Inclement weather or ultrasonic sources such as an automatic car wash, a truck's compressed-air brakes or a pneumatic drill may affect the function of the system; this may include reduced performance or a false activation. ● This function is designed as an aid to the driver in detecting large stationary objects to help avoid damaging the vehicle. 4-36 Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems
