WARNING!
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
ParkSense 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.
PARKSENSE ACTIVE PARK ASSIST
SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED
The ParkSense Active Park Assist system is intended to
assist the driver during parallel and perpendicular park-
ing maneuvers. The system works by identifying a
proper parking space, providing audible/visual instruc-
tions, and controlling the steering wheel only, or the
accelerator, gear selector, brakes, and the steering
wheel (if equipped with the Fully Automated system).
Depending on the driver's parking maneuver selection,
the ParkSense Active Park Assist system is capable of
maneuvering a vehicle into a parallel or a perpendicular
parking space on either side (i.e., driver side or passen-
ger side).
Two types of ParkSense Active Park Assist systems are
available:
•
Semi-Automatic ParkSense Active Park Assist
•
ParkSense Automated Parking system
Semi-Automatic ParkSense Active Park Assist —
If Equipped
The Semi-Automatic system detects parking spaces,
and controls the steering wheel only. The driver main-
tains control of the accelerator, gear selector and
brakes.
ParkSense Automated Parking — If Equipped
The Fully Automated system detects parking spaces,
and controls the accelerator, gear selector, brakes, and
steering wheel. In this mode, the system also provides
obstacle detection by providing visual and audible warn-
ings and automatic braking to avoid a collision.
If your vehicle is equipped with the Fully Automated sys-
tem, you can switch between Semi-Automatic and Fully
Automated mode in the Uconnect Settings
page 182.
NOTE:
•
The driver is always responsible for controlling the
vehicle, responsible for any surrounding objects,
and must intervene as required.
•
The system is designed to assist the driver and not
to substitute the driver.
•
During a Semi-Automatic or Fully Automated maneu-
ver, if the driver touches the steering wheel after
being instructed to remove their hands from the
steering wheel, the system will cancel, and the
driver will be required to manually complete the
parking maneuver.
•
The system may not work in all conditions (e.g. envi-
ronmental conditions such as heavy rain, snow, etc.,
or if searching for a parking space that has surfaces
that will absorb the ultrasonic sensor waves).
•
New vehicles from an authorized dealership must
have at least 30 miles (48 km) accumulated before
the ParkSense Active Park Assist system is fully cali-
brated and performs accurately. This is due to the
system’s dynamic vehicle calibration to improve the
performance of the feature. The system will also
continuously perform the dynamic vehicle calibra-
tion to account for differences such as over or under
inflated tires and new tires.
ENABLING AND DISABLING THE
PARKSENSE ACTIVE PARK ASSIST
SYSTEM
The ParkSense Active Park Assist system
can be enabled and disabled with the
ParkSense Active Park Assist switch, located
on the switch panel on the forward part of
the center console, in front of the gear selector.
To enable the ParkSense Active Park Assist system,
push the ParkSense Active Park Assist switch once
(LED turns on). Pushing the switch a second time will
disable the system (LED turns off).
