SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

1. GENERAL

(a) When the vehicle is driven at 9 km/h (5.6 mph) or less, the ultrasonic sensors detect any obstacles at the corners and rear of the vehicle. The system then informs the driver of the distance between the sensors and the obstacles as well as their positions by indicating them on the combination meter and by sounding a buzzer.

3. OPERATION EXPLANATION

(a) The parking assist ECU determines whether the intuitive parking assist system should be operated based on the clearance sonar main switch on/off status, the shift position and the vehicle speed.

(b) When the system operates, the parking assist ECU transmits ultrasonic waves from the ultrasonic sensors. If these waves encounter an obstacle within one or more of the ranges, of the sensors the waves are reflected back to the sensors, which transmit them to the parking assist ECU. Based on this information, the parking assist ECU sends signals to the multi-information display, the display and navigation module display*1 or multi-display*2, and the No. 1 clearance warning buzzer. The approximate distance between the vehicle and the obstacle is then indicated, and the buzzer sounds.
