Object Detection Description and Operation (UD7): Notes
The parking assist system is designed to identify and notify the driver of an object in the vehicle's path when reversing at speeds of less than 8 km/h (5 mph). The distance and location of the object is determined by four object alarm sensors located in the rear bumper. The parking assist system will notify the driver using an audible signal through the radio speakers. The audible signal will vary depending on the distance the object is from the vehicle.
The parking assist system is made up of the following components:
- Object alarm module
- Object alarm sensors
- Parking assist disable switch
