SERVICE REMINDER FUNCTION

When the inspection interval (alert start point in table 
below) is due in accordance with the predetermined 
schedule (see table below), the service reminder 
indicator will be displayed when the ignition switch is 
turned to the ON position. However, even if the warn-
ing condition is met, the indicator does not display 
immediately. It illuminates next time when the ignition 
switch is turned ON. The impending inspection inter-
val can be displayed by changing the LCD section by 

the meter information switch. The service reminder 
indicator will go off when it is reset by operating the 
meter information switch according to the specified 

procedure

REVERSING SENSOR (CORNER SENSOR AND BACK 

SENSOR)

GENERAL INFORMATION

M2545200200353

The ultrasonic sensors installed on the rear corner 
bumper and rear bumper detect obstacles at the 
vehicle corners. These sensors have been adopted 
to inform the driver of the obstacle distance from the 
vehicle using the buzzer in corner sensor/back sen-
sor-ECU, and to improve the safety and vehicle driv-
ability during driving the vehicle into a garage and 
parking in a narrow space.

CAUTION

When the illuminated licence plate is installed, the sensors may not operate because of noise from 
the plate.Refer to FAIL-SAFE FUNCTION (1)

REVERSING SENSOR (CORNER SENSOR AND BACK SENSOR)

CHASSIS ELECTRICAL

• Depending on whether the vehicle is equipped 

with a towing bar, you can change sensors 
between the standard mode and the towing bar 
mode. The towing bar mode changes the system 
to exclude in the area in which the towing bar is 
mounted from the detection areas.

NOTE: The detection range of the sensor varies with temperature and humidity. Obstacles below the bump-
ers or a curbstone not taller than the sensor position may be hard to be detected.

OPERATION

ACTIVATION/DEACTIVATION OF REVERSING SENSOR SYSTEM

By shifting the gear to the reverse position and oper-
ating the sonar switch (corner sensor switch), the 
system can be turned ON (reversing sensor indica-
tor: ON) and OFF (reversing sensor indicator: OFF).

THE TOWING BAR MODE SWITCHING

By operating the sonar switch (corner sensor switch), 
"TOWING BAR MODE" and "STANDARD MODE" 
can be changed.

1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
2. Move the shift lever or selector lever to the "R" 

(reverse) position.

3. Turn off the reversing sensor system by operating 

the sonar switch (corner sensor switch).(Revers-
ing sensor indicator: OFF)

4. Press and hold the sonar switch (corner sensor 

switch) for approximately 5 seconds.

5. The buzzer* sounds and the mode is switched 

between "TOWING BAR MODE" and "STAND-
ARD MODE".

NOTE: *: Sounds twice when the mode is switched 
to "TOWING BAR MODE". Sounds once when the 
mode is switched to "STANDARD MODE".

BUZZER DURATION

The buzzer sound of the corner sensor/back sensors 
is the same. The buzzer in the corner sensor/back 
sensor-ECU sounds based on the closer alarm cycle 
having a higher priority.
