  • Use only genuine parts to repair the rear bumper where the rear corner radar is located.

  • Do not apply license plate frame or objects, such as a bumper sticker, film or a bumper guard near the rear corner radar.

  • The function may not work properly if the bumper has been replaced, or the surroundings of the rear corner radar has been damaged or paint has been applied.

  • If a trailer, carrier, etc. is installed, it may adversely affect the performance of the rear corner radar or the function may not operate.
