the tone will sound continuously.
Keep the corner/center sonar (located on
the bumper fascia) free from snow, ice and
large accumulations of dirt (do not clean
the sonar with sharp objects). If the sonar
is covered, it will affect the accuracy of the
sonar system.
The sensitivity level of the corner/center
sonar can be adjusted (higher or lower) in
the SONAR setting display. (See “How to
use SETTING button” in the “Monitor,
climate, audio, phone and voice recogni-
tion systems” for the “Sonar” settings.)

The sonar indicators

A
and

B
indicate
the position of the object and the distance
to the object with its color and rate of
blinking.
When an object is detected, the indicator
(green) appears and blinks (the tone
sounds intermittently). When the vehicle
moves closer to the object, the color of the
indicator turns yellow and the rate of
blinking increases (the rate of the tone
increases). When the bumper is very close
to the object, less than 11.8 in (30 cm)
away, the indicator stops blinking and
turns red (the tone sounds continuously).
When the rear view monitor is displayed,
the colors of the sonar indicator and the
distance guide lines in the rear view
indicate different distances to the object.
The sonar indicator can be turned off in the
SONAR setting display. (See “How to use
SETTING button” in the “Monitor, climate,
audio, phone and voice recognition sys-
tems” for the “Sonar” settings.) When the
sonar indicator is off, only a tone sounds
when the sonar detects obstacles.
