246 STARTING AND OPERATING
Service The ParkSense Park Assist System
During vehicle start up, when the ParkSense
System has detected a faulted condition, the
instrument cluster will actuate a single chime,
once per ignition cycle, and it will display the
“PARKSENSE UNAVAILABLE WIPE REAR
SENSORS”, “PARKSENSE UNAVAILABLE WIPE
FRONT SENSORS” or “PARKSENSE
UNAVAILABLE SERVICE REQUIRED” message.
When the gear selector is moved to REVERSE
and the system has detected a faulted
condition, the instrument cluster display will
display a “PARKSENSE UNAVAILABLE WIPE
REAR SENSORS” or “PARKSENSE
UNAVAILABLE SERVICE REQUIRED” message
for as long as the vehicle is in REVERSE. Under
this condition, ParkSense will not operate. Refer
to “Instrument Cluster Display” in “Getting To
Know Your Instrument Panel” for further
information.
If “PARKSENSE UNAVAILABLE WIPE REAR
SEN
SORS” or “PARKSENSE UNAVAILABLE WIPE
FRONT SENSORS” appears in the instrument
cluster display make sure the outer surface and
the underside of the rear fascia/bumper and/or
front fascia/bumper is clean and clear of snow,
ice, mud, dirt or other obstruction and then
cycle the ignition. If the message continues to
appear, see an authorized dealer.
If the “PARKSENSE UNAVAILABLE SERVICE
REQ
UIRED” message appears in the instrument
cluster display, see an authorized dealer.
Cleaning The ParkSense System
Clean the ParkSense sensors with water, car
wash soap, and a soft cloth. Do not use rough or
hard cloths. In washing stations, clean sensors
quickly keeping the vapor jet/high pressure
washing nozzles at least 4
inches (10 cm) from
the
sensors. Do not scratch or poke the
sensors. Otherwise, you could damage the
sensors.
ParkSense System Usage Precautions
NOTE:
Ensure that the front and rear bumpers are
free of snow, ice, mud, dirt and debris to keep
the ParkSense system operating properly.
Jackhammers, large trucks, and other
vibrations could affect the performance of
ParkSense.
When you turn the ParkSense system off, the
instrument cluster display will show a vehicle
graphic of the ParkSense on/off state for two
seconds. Furthermore, once you turn
ParkSense off, it remains off until you turn it
on again, even if you cycle the ignition.
When you move the gear selector to the
REVERSE position and ParkSense is turned
off, the instrument cluster display will show
the “ParkSense OFF” message. This
message will be displayed for as long as the
vehicle is in REVERSE.
ParkSense, when on, will reduce the volume
of the radio when it is sounding a tone.
