If the risk of collision is detected while Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist is generated, brake is controlled. The instrument cluster will inform the driver of the brake control. If the rear view monitor is in activation, a message will also appear on the infotainment system screen.

After the brake control, the driver must immediately depress the brake pedal and check the surroundings.

  • The brake activation by the function lasts for about 2 seconds. The driver must pay attention as the brake is disengaged after 2 seconds.

  • The brake control by the function is canceled if the driver depresses the brake pedal with sufficient power.

  • Brake control is activated once for each right/left approach after shifting the shift button to R (Reverse).

The brake control may not operate properly according to the status of the ESC (Electronic Stability Control). The same warning message is displayed on the instrument cluster for this case also.

  • When the ESC (Electronic Stability Control) warning light is on.

  • When the ESC (Electronic Stability Control) is engaged in a different function.

CAUTION

  • When the operation condition of the Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist is met, the warning will occur every time a vehicle approaches the side or rear of your stopped (0 km/h (0 mph) vehicle speed) vehicle.

  • The function’s warning or brake may not operate properly if the left or right of your vehicle's rear bumper is blocked by a vehicle or obstacle.

  • The driver should always use extreme caution while operating the vehicle, whether or not the warning light on the outer side view mirror illuminates or there is a warning alarm.

  • Playing the vehicle audio system at high volume may prevent occupants from hearing the function’s warning sounds.

  • If any other warning sound such as seat belt warning chime is already generated, the Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist warning may not sound.

WARNING

  • Drive safely even though the vehicle is equipped with a Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist. Do not rely solely on the function but check your surrounding when backing up the vehicle.

  • The driver is responsible for accurate brake control.

  • Always use extreme caution while driving. Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist may not operate properly or unnecessarily operate in accordance with your driving situations.

  • Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist is not a substitute for safe driving practices, but a convenience function only. It is the responsibility of the driver to always drive cautiously to prevent unexpected and sudden situations from occurring. Pay attention to the road conditions and surroundings at all times.
