  • Select "Driver Assistance" in "User Settings" and click "Rear Collision Warning" to select "Rear Cross-Traffic Alert" on the instrument cluster. The system will then turn on and wait for activation.
  • Select "Rear Cross-Traffic Alert" again to turn off the system.
  • If the vehicle is turned off and then back on, the Rear Cross-Traffic Alert system will return to the state it was in immediately before the vehicle was turned off. Turn the Rear Cross-Traffic Alert system off when it is not in use.
  • The system operates at vehicle speeds below 10 km/h with the shift lever in the R (Reverse) position.
  • The RCTA (Rear Cross-Traffic Alert) detection range is 0.5–20 m based on the lateral direction. If the approaching vehicle speed is 4 km/h~36 km/h when detected within the range, the warning is activated. However, the system sensitivity range varies depending on conditions. Always pay attention to the surroundings.
