●

If a parked vehicle is behind the target parking space and the distance between it and
the vehicle becomes far, it may no longer be able to be detected. Depending on shape
or condition of a parked vehicle, the detection range may become short or the vehicle
may not be detected.

●

Objects other than parked vehicles, such as columns, walls, etc., may not be detected.
Also, if they are detected, they may cause the target parking space to be misaligned.

■

Situations in which white parking space lines may not be recognized properly

In situations such as the following, parking space lines on the road surface may not be
detected:

●

When the parking space does not use white lines (parking space boundaries are
marked with rope, blocks, etc.)

●

When the parking space lines are faded or dirty, making them unclear

●

When the road surface is bright, such as concrete, and the contrast between it and the
white parking space lines is small

●

When the parking space lines are any color other than yellow or white

●

When the area surrounding the parking space is dark, such as at night, in an under-
ground parking lot, parking garage, etc.

●

When it is raining or has rained and the road surface is wet and reflective or there are
puddles

●

When the sun is shining directly into a camera, such as in the early morning or evening

●

When the parking space is covered with snow or de-icing agent

●

When there marks from repairs or other marks on the road surface, or there is a traffic
bollard, or other object on the road surface

●

When the color or brightness of the road surface is uneven

●

When a camera has been splashed by hot or cold water and the lens has fogged up

●

When the appearance of the parking space is affected by the shadow of the vehicle or
trees

NOTICE

■

When using the perpendicular parking (forward/reverse) function

●

Make sure that there are no obstructions within the yellow guide lines and be-
tween the vehicle and target parking spot. If there are any obstructions between
the vehicle and the target parking space, or between the yellow guide lines, cancel
the function.

●

As the target parking space will not be able to be set correctly if the surface of the
parking space is on a slope or has differences in height, the vehicle may stray from
the target parking space or be slanted. Therefore, do not use the function for this
kind of parking spot.

●

When parking in a narrow parking space, the vehicle may closely approach an
adjacent parked vehicle. If a collision seems likely, depress the brake pedal to stop
the vehicle.

●

If a detected parked vehicle is narrow or parked extremely close to the curb, the
position at which assistance will park the vehicle will also be close to the curb. If it
seems likely the vehicle will collide with something or drive off of the road, depress
the brake pedal to stop the vehicle, and then press the Advance Park main switch
to disable the system.
