ACTIVE PARK ASSIST (If Equipped)
Parallel Parking Assist
WARNINGS
You must remain in your vehicle
when the system turns on. At all
times, you are responsible for
controlling your vehicle, supervising the
system and intervening, if required. Failure
to take care may result in the loss of
control of your vehicle, serious personal
injury or death.
The sensors may not detect objects
in heavy rain or other conditions that
cause interference.
Active park assist does not apply the
brakes under any circumstances.
The system is designed to aid the
driver. It is not intended to replace
your attention and judgment. You are
still responsible to drive with due care and
attention.
Note: The Blind Spot Information System
does not detect traffic alongside or behind
your vehicle during an Active Park Assist
maneuver.
The system detects an available parallel
parking space and automatically steers
your vehicle into the space (hands-free)
while you control the accelerator, gearshift
and brakes. The system visually and
audibly guides you when parking your
vehicle.
If you are uncomfortable with the proximity
to any vehicle or object, you may choose
to override the system by grabbing the
steering wheel or by pressing the active
park assist button.
The system may not correctly operate in
any of the following conditions:
You use a spare tire or a tire
significantly worn more than the other
tires.
One or more tires are improperly
inflated.
You try to park on a tight curve.
Something passes between the front
bumper and the parking space. For
example, a pedestrian or cyclist.
The edge of the neighboring parked
vehicle is high off the ground. For
example, a bus, tow truck or flatbed
truck.
The weather conditions are poor. For
example, during heavy rain, snow or
fog.
Note: Keep the sensors on the bumper or
fascia free from snow, ice and large
accumulations of dirt. Covered sensors can
affect the system's accuracy. Do not clean
the sensors with sharp objects.
Note: The sensors may not detect objects
with surfaces that absorb ultrasonic waves
or cause ultrasonic interference. For
example, motorcycle exhaust, truck air
brakes or horns.
Note: Following a change in tire size, the
system must recalibrate and operation may
be impaired for a short time.
Do not use the system if:
You have attached a foreign object
close to the sensors on the front or rear
of your vehicle. For example, a bike rack
or trailer.
You attach an overhanging object to
the roof. For example, a surfboard.
A foreign object damages or obstructs
the front or rear bumper or side
sensors.
The correct tire size is not in use on your
vehicle. For example, a mini-spare tire.
