REAR PARKSENSE
The Rear ParkSense system provides visual
and audible indications of the distance be-
tween the rear fascia and a detected obstacle
when backing up, e.g. during a parking ma-
neuver.
Rear ParkSense will retain the last system
state (enabled or disabled) from the last
ignition cycle when the ignition is changed to
the RUN position.
Rear ParkSense can be active only when the
gear selector is in REVERSE.
Rear ParkSense Sensors
The four Rear ParkSense sensors, located in
the rear fascia/bumper, monitor the area be-
hind the vehicle that is within the sensors’
field of view. The sensors can detect ob-
stacles from approximately 12 inches
(30 cm) up to 59 inches (150 cm) from the
rear fascia/bumper in the horizontal direc-
tion, depending on the location, type and
orientation of the obstacle.
Chime
By shifting the vehicle in REVERSE and in
the case of the presence of a rear obstacle, an
acoustic signal that varies with the distance
of the obstacle from the bumper is activated.
The frequency of the acoustic signal:
Increases with the distance between ve-
hicle and object decreases.
Becomes continuous when the distance
that separates the vehicle from the obstacle
is less than approximately 12 inches
(30 cm), while terminates immediately if
the distance to the obstacle increases.
Remains constant if the distance between
vehicle and obstacle remains unchanged. If
this situation occurs for the side sensors,
the signal is stopped after approximately
three seconds to avoid, for example, it ac-
tivates in case of maneuver along a wall.
When the system emits a beeping sound, the
volume of the Uconnect system, if turned on,
is automatically lowered by Rear ParkSense.
Detection Distances
If the sensors detect more obstacles, it is
taken into account only what is the shorter
distance.
Instrument Cluster Display
Rear ParkSense is displayed on the instru-
ment cluster only if you have selected "Sound
and Display" within the "Safety And Driving
Assistance" menu of the Uconnect system.
If an obstacle is detected in the center rear
region, the display will show a single solid arc
in the center rear region and will produce a
one-half second tone. As the vehicle moves
closer to the obstacle, the display will show
the single arc moving closer to the vehicle
and the sound tone will change from slow, to
fast, to continuous.
If an obstacle is detected in the left and/or
right rear region, the display will show a
single flashing arc in the left and/or right rear
region and will produce a fast sound tone. As
the vehicle moves closer to the obstacle, the
display will show the single arc moving closer
to the vehicle and the tone will change from
fast to continuous.
