maneuver). Refer to “ParkSense System Usage
Precautions” in this section for limitations of this
system and recommendations.
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 Rear Park Assist can be active only
when the gear selector is in REVERSE. If
ParkSense is enabled at this gear selector
position, the system will remain active until the
vehicle speed is increased to approximately
7 mph (11 km/h) or above. When in REVERSE
and above the system's operating speed, a
warning will appear within the instrument
cluster display indicating the vehicle speed is
too fast. The system will become active again if
the vehicle speed is decreased to speeds less
than approximately 6 mph (9 km/h).
PARKSENSE SENSORS
For the 3500, 4500 and 5500 Chassis Cab
vehicles, the rear ParkSense sensors are
shipped loose. Please refer to the Ram Body
Builder’s Guide for more information.
The four ParkSense sensors are to be located in
the rear fascia/bumper, and 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
79 inches (200 cm) from the rear fascia/
bumper in the horizontal direction, depending
on the location, type and orientation of the
obstacle.
NOTE:
If equipped as a dually, the ParkSense system
has six rear sensors to assist in detection
around the dually flares.
PARKSENSE WARNING DISPLAY
The ParkSense Warning screen is located within
the instrument cluster display. It provides visual
warnings to indicate the distance between the
rear fascia/bumper and the detected obstacle.
Refer to “Instrument Cluster Display” in
“Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel” for
further information.
PARKSENSE DISPLAY
When the vehicle is in REVERSE, the warning
display will turn on indicating the system status.
The system will indicate a detected obstacle by
showing a single arc in one or more of the rear
regions (left/center/right) based on the object’s
distance and location relative to the vehicle.
If an object is detected in one or more of the
rear regions, the display will show a single solid
arc in these regions and the system will produce
a tone. As the vehicle moves closer to the
object, the display will show the single arc
moving closer to the vehicle and the tone will
change from a single 1/2 second tone to slow,
to fast, to continuous.
