the parking sensor (sonar) (if equipped)
detects that the vehicle is approaching an
object.
WARNING:
MOVING OBJECT DETECTION (MOD)
FUNCTION (if equipped)
The Moving Object Detection (MOD) system can
inform the driver of moving objects when
driving out of garages, maneuvering into park-
ing lots and in other such instances.
.
.
The parking sensor (sonar) function is not
designed to prevent the object.
The display will switch back to the previously
displayed screen from the Intelligent Around
View Monitor/Around View Monitor screen
when:
The colors of the parking sensor (sonar)
indicator and the distance guide lines in
the front/rear view indicate different
distances to the object.
.
The shift lever is in the “D” (Drive) position
(CVT/DCT model) or the shift lever is out of
the “R” (Reverse) position (MT model), and
the vehicle speed increases above approxi-
mately 10 km/h (6 MPH).
The MOD system detects moving objects by
using image processing technology on the
image shown on the display.
.
.
Inclement weather may affect the func-
tion of the parking sensor (sonar) system;
this may include reduced performance or
a false activation.
The MOD system operates in the following
conditions when the camera view is displayed:
.
A different screen is selected (when the
shift lever is not in the “R” (Reverse) posi-
tion).
This function is designed as an aid to the
driver in detecting large stationary ob-
jects to help avoid damaging the vehicle.
The system will not detect small objects
below the bumper, and may not detect
objects that are too close to the bumper
or on the ground.
.
When the shift lever is in the “P” (Park) or “N”
(Neutral) position (CVT/DCT model) or the
shift lever is out of the “R” (Reverse) position
(MT model) and the vehicle is stopped, the
MOD system detects the moving objects in
the bird’s-eye view. The MOD system will
not operate if the outside mirror is moving
in or out or if either door is opened.
CAMERA AIDING PARKING SENSOR (so-
nar) FUNCTION (if equipped)
When the vehicle moves closer to the object
while the Intelligent Around View Monitor/
Around View Monitor is displayed, an indicator
is displayed and a tone is sounded by the
parking sensor (sonar) function to warn the
driver.
.
If your vehicle sustains damage to the
bumper fascia, leaving it misaligned or
bent, the sensing zone may be altered
causing inaccurate measurement of ob-
stacles or false alarms.
.
.
When the shift lever is in the “D” (Drive)
position (CVT/DCT model) or the shift lever
is out of the “R” (Reverse) position (MT
model), and the vehicle speed is below
approximately 8 km/h (5 MPH), the MOD
system detects moving objects in the front
view.
The color of the parking sensor (sonar) indica-
tor and the pattern of the tone vary according
to the distance to the object.
CAUTION:
.
.
Keep the interior of the vehicle as quiet as
possible to hear the tone clearly.
Keep the parking sensor (sonar) (located on the
front (if equipped) and rear bumper fascia) free
from snow, ice and large accumulations of dirt.
Do not clean the sensors (sonar) with sharp
objects. If the sensors (sonar) are covered, the
accuracy of the parking sensor (sonar) function
will be diminished.
When the shift lever is in the “R” (Reverse)
position and the vehicle speed is below
approximately 8 km/h (5 MPH), the MOD
system detects moving objects in the rear
view. The MOD system will not operate
correctly if the back door is open.
The front and rear parking sensors (so-
nar) detect the distance between the
vehicle and the obstacle by detecting
the sound wave reflected from the sur-
face of the obstacle. When there is
a
The MOD system does not detect moving
objects in the front-side view. The MOD icon is
not displayed on the screen when in this view.
sound such as horn, or an ultrasonic
source (such as parking sensors of other
vehicles) around the vehicle, the sensor
(sonar) may not detect objects properly.
The tone sound and the sensor (sonar) indica-
tor display can be turned on/off, and the
volume of the tone sound and the sensor
(sonar) detection range can be adjusted. (See
“Driver Assistance” (P.2-22).)
