relative distance between the sensors and an
obstacle.
The warning indicator is divided into four
yellow and two red distance segments :.
The Rear Parking Assist system is ready to
measure when you hear a signal and

As your vehicle approaches an object, one or
more distance segments : will illuminate,
depending on the distance. When the sixth
distance segment illuminates, you have
reached the minimum distance.
An intermittent acoustic warning will sound
when the fourth yellow distance segment

additional distance segment lit. When the
sixth distance segment illuminates, the
acoustic warning becomes a constant signal.
