and here it's functionality:
Set Sensors (if equipped)
You can select either the normal or trailer
mode of the parking sensor via the information
display.
Normal mode
All sensors operate. Use this mode under
normal conditions.
Trailer mode
The rear corner and rear center sensors
are inhibited from operating. Use this
mode when towing a trailer.

Don't think I have that setting on my 2011 SLS. I'd not recommend anybody with a CVT to tow a trailer. If Suzuki was smart, putting it in trailer mode on CVT models would result in ignition disable and a flashing warning on the display that says, "Are you nuts?"

I have a manual transmission USDM model and don't ever recall seeing the " Set Sensor" option. However, it appears only relevant to models with parking sensors. The USDM SLS models had rear parking sensors but not front ones like other markets. Maybe this Set Sensors option was added to the models with front sensors though its functionality is for rear sensors. Either way, looks like another one of those features that US and Canadian models did not get.

:lol: it took me about 15 min to search the internet to find out what is this feature but 3 hours after that I couldn't find any use case for that :lol:
