[A]: Warning sound
If the vehicle detected by the sensors approaches from the rear left/right side of your vehicle, the warning chime will sound, the warning light on the outside rear view mirror will blink and a message will appear on the LCD display. If the rear view monitor is in activation, a message will also appear on the infotainment system screen.
The warning will stop when:
-
The detected vehicle moves out of the sensing area or
-
when the vehicle is right behind your vehicle or
-
when the vehicle is not approaching your vehicle or
-
when the other vehicle slows down or
-
The vehicle's approaching speed is decreased.
-
When the operation condition of the Rear Cross-Traffic Collision Warning 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 appears 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 Warning warning may not sound.
