STARTING AND OPERATING 131
Rear Park Assist is automatically activated
when the transmission is placed into REVERSE.
As the distance from an obstacle behind the
vehicle decreases, the audible alert becomes
more frequent.
For the limitations of this system and recom-
mendations, refer to the “Park Assist System
Usage Precautions” in this section.
Interaction With Trailer Towing
The Rear Park Assist system is automatically
deactivated when a trailer is hitched to the
vehicle. The system will be automatically acti-
vated as soon as the trailer is removed.
Rear Park Assist Sensors
The four Rear Park Assist sensors, located in
the rear fascia/bumper, monitor the area
behind the vehicle that is within the sensors’
field of view. The sensors can detect obstacles,
in the horizontal direction, from approximately
12 inches (30 cm) up to 55 inches (140 cm)
from the center of the rear fascia/bumper and
up to 24 inches (60 cm) from the corners of the
rear fascia/bumper, depending on the location,
type and orientation of the obstacle.
If several obstacles are detected, the Rear Park
Assist system indicates the nearest obstacle.
The minimum height of a detectable obstacle
corresponds to the maximum height of an
obstacle that would clear the underside of the
vehicle during the parking maneuver.
Rear Park Assist Audible Alerts
If an obstacle is behind the vehicle when the
transmission is placed into REVERSE, an
audible alert is activated.
The tones emitted by the loudspeaker inform
the driver that the vehicle is approaching an
obstacle. The pauses between the tones are
directly proportional to the distance from the
obstacle. Pulses emitted in quick succession
indicate the presence of a very close obstacle. A
continuous tone indicates that the obstacle is
less than 12 inches (30 cm) away.
