SENSING SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)

WARNING: To help avoid personal injury, please read and

understand the limitations of the system as contained in this

section. Sensing is only an aid for some (generally large and fixed)

objects when moving in reverse on a flat surface at parking speeds.

Traffic control systems, inclement weather, air brakes, and external

motors and fans may also affect the function of the sensing system; this

may include reduced performance or a false activation.

WARNING: To help avoid personal injury, always use caution

when the transmission is in R and when using the sensing

system.

WARNING: This system is not designed to prevent contact with

small or moving objects. The system is designed to provide a

warning to assist the driver in detecting large stationary objects to

avoid damaging the vehicle. The system may not detect smaller objects,

particularly those close to the ground.

WARNING: Certain add-on devices, such as large trailer hitches,

bike or surfboard racks and any device that may block the normal

detection zone of the system, may create false beeps.

Note: Keep the sensors (located on the bumper/fascia) free from snow,

ice and large accumulations of dirt. If the sensors are covered, the

system’s accuracy can be affected. Do not clean the sensors with sharp

objects.

Note: If your vehicle sustains damage to the bumper/fascia, leaving it

misaligned or bent, the sensing zone may be altered causing inaccurate

measurement of obstacles or false alarms.

The sensing system warns the driver of obstacles within a certain range

of the bumper area. The system turns on automatically whenever the

ignition is switched on.

When receiving a detection warning, the radio volume is reduced to a

predetermined level. After the warning goes away, the radio volume

returns to the previous level.

The system can be turned off using the information display control. See

the Information Display chapter. If a fault is present in the system, a
