PARKING SENSOR SYSTEM OPERATION

•  The parking sensor system activates when the ignition is switched ON. If the parking sensor system activates normally and the selector lever (ATX / CVT) / shift lever (MTX) is in the R position, the microcomputer in the parking sensor control module sounds the buzzer sounds according to the following:.

Obstruction Detection Function Operation

1.  The ultrasonic sensor emits ultrasonic waves which an obstruction will reflect.

2.  The reflected wave from the obstruction is received by the ultrasonic sensor and sent to the parking sensor control module.

3.  When the microcomputer in the parking sensor control module receives the reflected signal, it calculates the detected distance to the obstruction.

4.  The microcomputer in the parking sensor control module operates the ultrasonic sensor based on the distance between the parking sensor and the obstruction, the shift position, and the vehicle speed signals.
