256 STARTING AND OPERATING
PARKSENSE FRONT AND REAR PARK ASSIST —
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 moving
forward (e.g. during a parking maneuver). If your
vehicle is equipped with an Automatic Trans-
mission, the vehicle brakes may be automati-
cally applied and released when performing a
reverse parking maneuver if the system detects
a possible collision with an obstacle.
NOTE:
The driver can override the automatic
braking function by pressing the gas pedal,
turning ParkSense off via ParkSense switch,
or changing the gear while the automatic
brakes are being applied.
Automatic brakes will not be available if ESC
is not available.
Automatic brakes will not be available if there
is a faulted condition detected with the Park-
Sense Park Assist system or the Braking
System Module.
The automatic braking function may not
provide enough vehicle deceleration to avoid
colliding with a detected obstacle depending
on vehicle speed, road conditions, and brake
capability.
The automatic braking function may not be
applied fast enough for moving obstacles
that approach the rear of the vehicle from the
left and/or right sides.
The automatic braking function can be
enabled/disabled from the
Customer-Programmable Features section of
the Uconnect System.
ParkSense will retain its last known configu-
ration state for the automatic braking func-
tion through ignition cycles.
The automatic braking function is intended to
assist the driver in avoiding possible collisions
with detected obstacles when backing up in
REVERSE gear.
NOTE:
The driver is always responsible for
controlling the vehicle.
The system is provided to assist the driver
and not to substitute the driver.
The driver must stay in full control of the
vehicle's acceleration and braking and is
responsible for the vehicle's movements.
Refer to “ParkSense System Usage Precau-
tions” for limitations of this system and recom-
mendations.
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 can be active only when the gear
selector is in REVERSE or DRIVE. If ParkSense is
enabled at one of these gear selector positions,
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 in the instrument cluster display
indicating the vehicle speed is too fast. The
