STARTING & DRIVING  
Rear Driver Assistance System  
System Overview  
The rear driver assist system may not provide  
adequate warning of very fast approaching  
vehicles or operate correctly on tight curves  
of radius.  
The rear driver assistance sensors may  
misidentify some surroundings, such as  
roadside buildings or guardrails and provide  
a false alarm.  
The rear driver assist system will not operate  
correctly whilst towing a trailer or caravan.  
The effective recognition capabilities of the  
rear sensors can be limited by objects such  
as roadside buildings, guardrails, changes in  
pitch angle of the car due to heavy loading,  
road conditions such as bends or bumps or  
weather conditions such as snow and ice etc.  
Any of the above may trigger a false alarm.  
The correct operation of the rear sensors will  
be compromised if they are misaligned due to  
accident damage. This may cause the system  
to automatically shutdown.

To ensure that the radar sensors work  
correctly, the rear bumper should be kept  
free of snow and ice and must not be covered.  
The rear driver assistance function is only an  
aide, it is NOT a substitute for the attention  
of the driver. The driver must always remain  
in control, observe the surroundings and drive  
safely.  
Use of non recommended materials or  
paint on rear bumper repairs may have a  
detrimental effect on the operation of the  
rear sensors. Please only use recommended  
materials.

STARTING & DRIVING  
The rear driver assistance system includes blind spot  
detection (BSD), lane change assist (LCA), rear cross  
traffic alert (RCTA) and door open warning (DOW)  
functions.  
Note: The radar requires calibration on new vehicles  
or for vehicles of where rear detecting radar  
a
sensor has been replaced. The rear detection radar  
sensors possess an automatic calibration function to  
compensate for installation error within a certain  
range. When the vehicle is running, the radar will  
automatically enter the calibration state. During the  
calibration process, the system will provide limited  
functions, and the alarm may be inaccurate. Upon  
completion of the calibration, the system will resume  
all functions.  
The rear driver assistance modules are mounted at the  
rear of the vehicle on each side, they can assist in detecting  
vehicles behind or to the side of your vehicle.  
The warning lamps to support this system are located  
within the LH and RH door quarter light trims, they will  
illuminate or flash to warn of an approaching object or car  
to assist you in manoeuvring the car safely.  
Switching the System Functions On/Off  
The rear driver assist system function switches can be  
accessed via the infotainment screen.  
Select: 'Vehicle Settings', 'Driving Assist' and 'Rear Driving  
Assist' (you may have to scroll left or right to access this  
option). Select ON/OFF to activate/deactivate the system.  
A warning message to alert you of your choice will be  
displayed in the message centre in the instrument pack.  
If the 'Rear Driving Assist' is ON, the sub system menu  
will become 'live' and you can select the ON/OFF option
