178 STARTING AND OPERATING
Enabling/Disabling ParkSense
ParkSense can be enabled and disabled
through the Customer-Programmable Features
section of the instrument cluster display. The
available choices are: Off, Sound Only, or Sound
and Display.
When ParkSense is disabled, the instrument
cluster will display the “PARK ASSIST SYSTEM
OFF” message for approximately five seconds.
When the gear selector is moved to REVERSE
and the system is disabled, the instrument
cluster display will display the “PARK ASSIST
SYSTEM OFF” message for as long as the
vehicle is in REVERSE.
Refer to “Instrument Cluster Display” in
“Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel” for
further information.
Service The ParkSense Rear Park Assist
System
During vehicle start up, when the ParkSense
Rear Park Assist System has detected a faulted
condition, the instrument cluster will actuate a
single chime, once per ignition cycle, and it will
display the “SERVICE PARK ASSIST SYSTEM”
message. When the gear selector is moved to
REVERSE and the system has detected a
faulted condition, the instrument cluster display
will display the “SERVICE PARK ASSIST
SYSTEM” message for as long as the vehicle is
in REVERSE. Under this condition, ParkSense
will not operate.
Refer to “Instrument Cluster Display” in
“Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel” for
further information.
If “SERVICE PARK ASSIST SYSTEM” appears in
the instrument cluster display after making sure
the rear fascia/bumper is free from snow, ice,
mud, dirt and debris, see an authorized dealer.
Cleaning The ParkSense System
Clean the ParkSense sensors with water, car
wash soap and a soft cloth. Do not use rough or
hard cloths. Do not scratch or poke the sensors.
Otherwise, you could damage the sensors.
ParkSense System Usage Precautions
NOTE:
Ensure that the rear bumper is free of snow,
ice, mud, dirt and debris to keep the Park-
Sense system operating properly.
Jackhammers, large trucks, and other vibra-
tions could affect the performance of Park-
Sense.
When you turn ParkSense off, the instrument
cluster will display “PARKSENSE OFF.”
Furthermore, once you turn ParkSense off, it
remains off until you turn it on again, even if
you cycle the ignition.
When you move the gear selector to the
REVERSE position and ParkSense is turned
off, the instrument cluster display will display
“PARKSENSE OFF” message for as long as
the vehicle is in REVERSE.
ParkSense, when on, will reduce the volume
of the radio when it is sounding a tone.
Clean the ParkSense sensors regularly,
taking care not to scratch or damage them.
The sensors must not be covered with ice,
snow, slush, mud, dirt or debris. Failure to do
so can result in the system not working prop-
erly. The ParkSense system might not detect
an obstacle behind the fascia/bumper, or it
could provide a false indication that an
obstacle is behind the fascia/bumper.
