STARTING AND OPERATING 323
PARKSENSE FRONT AND REAR PARK ASSIST — IF
EQUIPPED
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 an automatic transmission, 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 automatic
brakes are being applied.
• Automatic brakes are not available if the vehicle is in 4LO.
• 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.
• Before using ParkSense, it is strongly recommended
that the ball mount and hitch ball assembly is discon-
nected from the vehicle when the vehicle is not used for
towing. Failure to do so can result in injury or damage
to vehicles or obstacles because the hitch ball will be
much closer to the obstacle than the rear fascia when
the loudspeaker sounds the continuous tone. Also, the
sensors could detect the ball mount and hitch ball
assembly, depending on its size and shape, giving a
false indication that an obstacle is behind the vehicle.
CAUTION!
• ParkSense is only a parking aid and it is unable to
recognize every obstacle, including small obstacles.
Parking curbs might be temporarily detected or not
detected at all. Obstacles located above or below the
sensors will not be detected when they are in close
proximity.
• The vehicle must be driven slowly when using Park-
Sense in order to be able to stop in time when an
obstacle is detected. It is recommended that the driver
looks over his/her shoulder when using ParkSense.
