110 STARTING AND OPERATING
The system warns the driver with an acoustic
signal and where provided, with visual indications
on the instrument panel display.
NOTE:
Parksense will reduce the volume of the radio if
on when the system is sounding an audible
tone.
The alert chime is activated only when the
obstacle is in the vehicle path.
Activation — Deactivation
The system can operate only after driving a short
distance and if the vehicle speed is between 0 and
11
mph (0 and 18 km/h). The system can be
activated/deactivated via the "Settings" menu of
the Uconnect system. If the ParkSense System is
deactivated via the ParkSense Hard switch then
the Side Distance Warning system will
automatically be deactivated.
Message on the display for Side Distance Warning
featur
e:
“Wipe Sensors” — This message is displayed in the
case of a failure of the Side Distance Warning
system sensors. Free the bumpers of any
obstacles, ensure that the front and rear bumper
are free of snow, ice, mud, dirt and debris to keep
the ParkSense system operating properly.
“SDW Not Available” — This message is displayed
if the Side Distance Warning system is not
available. The failed operation of the system might
be due to the insufficient voltage from the battery
or other failures on the electrical system. Contact
an authorized dealer as soon as possible to have
the electrical system checked.
Operation With A Trailer
The system is automatically deactivated when the
trailer's electric plug is inserted in the vehicle's tow
hook socket. The rear sensors are automatically
reactivated when the trailer's cable plug is
removed.
ParkSense Usage Precautions
Some conditions may influence the performance
of the Side Distance Warning system:

of snow, ice, mud, dirt and debris to keep the
ParkSense system operating properly.
Construction equipment, large trucks, and other
vibrations could affect the performance of Park-

When you turn ParkSense off, the message to
appear in the instrument cluster display will
read “PARKSENSE OFF.” Furthermore, once you
turn ParkSense off, it remains off until you turn
it on again, even if you cycle the ignition key.
