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, in-
cluding 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 de-
tected. It is recommended that the
driver looks over his/her shoulder when
using ParkSense.
If it’s necessary to keep the trailer hitch and
hitch ball assembly mounted for a long pe-
riod, it is possible to filter out the trailer hitch
and hitch ball assembly presence in sensor
field of view. The filtering operation must be
performed only by an authorized dealer.
FRONT AND REAR
PARKSENSE 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 mov-
ing forward, e.g. during a parking maneuver.
Refer to “ParkSense System Usage Precau-
tions” for limitations of this system and rec-
ommendations.
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 is active when the gear selector is
shifted to REVERSE or to a forward gear and
an obstacle is detected, as long as the system
is ON. When the gear selector shifted to
NEUTRAL (or PARK in case of automatic
gearbox), the system becomes inactive.
When the vehicle is moving forward, the
system will remain active until the vehicle
speed remains below approximately 11 mph
(18 km/h). Reducing the speed approxi-
mately below 9 mph (15 km/h), the system
will come back active. When the vehicle is
moving in REVERSE, the system will remain
active as long as the speed remains below the
maximum operating speed of 7 mph
(11 km/h). When the maximum speed limit is
exceeded, the system is disabled and the
ParkSense switch LED with illuminate. The
system will become active again if the vehicle
speed reduces below approximately 6 mph
(9 km/h).
ParkSense Sensors
The six ParkSense 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 from
approximately 12 inches (30 cm) up to
59 inches (150 cm) from the rear fascia/
bumper in the horizontal direction, depend-
ing on the location, type and orientation of
the obstacle.
NOTE:
For further information on Active Park Assist,
refer to the “ParkSense Active Park Assist
System” section.
