PARKSENSE FRONT AND
REAR PARK ASSIST
The ParkSense Park Assist system provides
visual and audible indications of the
distance between the rear and/or front fascia
and a detected obstacle when backing up or
moving forward, e.g. during a parking
maneuver. If your vehicle is equipped with
the automatic braking function, the vehicle
brakes may be automatically applied and
released when performing a reverse parking
maneuver if the system detects a possible
collision with an obstacle.
NOTE:
The driver can override the automatic
braking function by pressing the gas
pedal, turning ParkSense off via Park
-
Sense switch, or changing the gear while
the autom
atic brakes are being applied.
Automatic brakes will not be available if
ESC is not available.
Automatic brakes will not be available if
there is a faulted condition detected with
the ParkSense Park Assist system or the
Braking System Module.
The automatic braking function may only
be applied if the vehicle deceleration is
not enough to avoid colliding with a
detected obstacle.
The automatic braking function will not be
available if vehicle is in 4LO transfer case
mode.
The automatic braking function may not
be applied fast enough for obstacles that
move toward the rear of the vehicle from
the left and/or right sides.
The automatic braking function can be
enabled/disabled from the Customer
Programmable Features section of the
Uconnect System.
ParkSense will retain its last known
configuration state for the automatic
braking function through ignition cycles.
The driver can override the automatic
braking function by pressing the gas
pedal, turning the rear system ParkSense
off via the Rear ParkSense switch, or
changing the gear while the automatic
brakes are being applied.
The automatic braking function is intended
to assist
the driver in avoiding possible colli-
sions with detected obstacles when backing
u
p in REV
ERSE gear.
NOTE:
The driver is always responsible for
controlling the vehicle.
The system is provided to assist the driver
and not to substitute the driver.
The driver must stay in full control of the
vehicle's acceleration and braking and is
responsible for the vehicle's movements.
Refer to “ParkSense System Usage Precau-
tions” in this section for limitations of this
system an
d recommendations.
ParkSense will retain the last system state
(enabled
or disabled) from the last ignition
cycle when the ignition is changed to the ON/
RUN position.
ParkSense can be active only when the gear
selector
is in REVERSE or DRIVE. If Park-
Sense is enabled at one of these gear
s
elector
positions, the system will remain
active until the vehicle speed is increased to
approximately 7
mph (11 km/h) or above. A
warning w
ill appear in the instrument cluster
display indicating the vehicle is above Park
