Cross Traffic Monitor

Continued

Driving

Cross Traffic Monitor

*

Monitors the rear corner areas using the radar sensors when reversing, and alerts 
you if a vehicle approaching from a rear corner is detected.

The system is convenient especially when you are getting out of a parking space 
backwards.

The system activates when:

•

The power mode is in ON.

•

The Cross Traffic Monitor is turned on.

Cross Traffic Monitor On and Off

 P. 520

•

The transmission is in 

(

R

.

•

Your vehicle is moving at 5 km/h (3 mph) or 
lower.

When a vehicle is detected approaching from a rear corner, Cross Traffic Monitor 
alerts you with a buzzer and a displayed warning.

The system will not detect a vehicle that approaches from directly behind your 
vehicle, nor will it provide alerts about a detected vehicle when it moves directly 
behind your vehicle.

The system does not provide alerts for a vehicle that is moving away from your 
vehicle, and it may alert for pedestrians, bicycles, or stationary objects.

■

How the System Works

1

Cross Traffic Monitor

*

Cross traffic monitor may not detect or may delay 
detecting an approaching vehicle, or may alert 
detection without an approaching vehicle under the 
following conditions:

•

An obstacle, such as another vehicle and a wall, 
near your vehicle's rear bumper, is blocking the 
radar sensor's scope.

•

Your vehicle is moving at the speed of about 
5 km/h (3 mph) or higher.

•

A vehicle is approaching at the speed other than 
between about 10 km/h and 25 km/h (6 mph and 
16 mph).

•

The system picks up external interference such as 
other radar sensors from another vehicle or strong 
radio wave transmitted from a facility nearby.

3

CAUTION

Cross Traffic Monitor cannot detect all 
approaching vehicles and may not detect 
an approaching vehicle at all.

Failure to visually confirm that it is safe to 
back up the vehicle before doing so may 
result in a collision.

Do not solely rely on the system when 
reversing; always also use your mirrors, and 
look behind and to the sides of your vehicle 
before reversing.

Your vehicle is reversing towards a wall, a pole, a 
vehicle, and so on.

The rear bumper or the sensors have been improperly 
repaired or the rear bumper has been deformed. 
Have your vehicle checked by a dealer.

For proper operation, always keep the rear bumper 
corner area clean.
Do not cover the rear bumper corner area with labels 
or stickers of any kind.

The parking sensor system's alerting buzzer overrides 
the Cross Traffic Monitor buzzer when the sensors 
are detecting obstacles at the closest range.

About Your Multi-View Rear Camera

The rear camera view is restricted. You cannot see 
the corner ends of the bumper or what is underneath 
the bumper. Its unique lens also makes objects 
appear closer or farther than they actually are.

Visually confirm that it is safe to drive before backing 
up. Certain conditions (such as weather, lighting, and 
high temperatures) may also restrict the rear view. Do 
not rely on the rearview display which does not give 
you all information about conditions at the back of 
your vehicle.

If the camera lens is covered with dirt or moisture, 
use a soft, moist cloth to keep the lens clean and free 
of debris.
