G1-G3:






Normal Operation
With the ignition switch in the RUN position and the REVERSE (R) gear is selected, the parking aid system calculates the distance to an object by the use of a radar sensor. A 750 Hz variable warning tone is generated by the parking aid speaker. The speaker increases its warning tone rate as the vehicle gets closer to an obstacle. When an object is detected within 46 cm (18 in) of the vehicle, the warning tone becomes continuous.

Possible Causes
- Rear bumper cover impact damage, alignment or obstruction concerns
- Parking aid module
