Cross Traffic Monitor
Monitors the rear corner areas using the radar sensors when reversing, and alerts
you if a vehicle approaching from a rear corner is detected.
The system is convenient especially when you are getting out of a parking space
backwards.

How the System Works
Radar sensors: Underneath the

When a vehicle is detected approaching from a rear corner, Cross Traffic Monitor
alerts you with a buzzer and a displayed warning.
The system will not detect a vehicle that approaches from directly behind your
vehicle, nor will it provide alerts about a detected vehicle when it moves directly
behind your vehicle.
The system does not provide alerts for a vehicle that is moving away from your
vehicle, and it may alert for pedestrians, bicycles, or stationary objects.
* Not available on all models

The system activates when:

Cross Traffic Monitor cannot detect all
approaching vehicles and may not detect
an approaching vehicle at all.
Failure to visually confirm that it is safe to
back up the vehicle before doing so may
result in a collision.
Do not solely rely on the system when
reversing; always also use your mirrors, and
look behind and to the sides of your vehicle
before reversing.
Cross traffic monitor may not detect or may delay
detecting an approaching vehicle, or may alert
detection without an approaching vehicle under the
following conditions:
•
An obstacle, such as another vehicle and a wall,
near your vehicle's rear bumper, is blocking the
radar sensor's scope.
•
Your vehicle is moving at the speed of about
5 km/h (3 mph) or higher.
•
A vehicle is approaching at the speed other than
between about 10 km/h and 25 km/h (6 mph and
16 mph).
•
The system picks up external interference such as
other radar sensors from another vehicle or strong
radio wave transmitted from a facility nearby.
