STARTING AND OPERATING 105 When the gear selector shifted to NEUTRAL or PARK, 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 approximately 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 will illuminate. The system will become active again if the vehicle speed reduces below approximately 6 mph (9 km/h). deactivated when a trailer is hitched to the vehicle. The system will be automatically activated as soon as the trailer is removed. P ARK S ENSE S ENSORS The six ParkSense sensors (four when vehicle is not equipped with front sensors), located in the rear fascia/bumper, and the six ParkSense sensors located in the front fascia/bumper, monitor the area in front and behind the vehicle that is within the sensors’ field of view. The front sensors detect obstacles from approximately 12 inches (30 cm) up to 39 inches (100 cm) from the front fascia/bumper. The rear sensors can detect obstacles from approximately 12 inches (30 cm) up to 55 inches (140 cm) from the center of the rear fascia/bumper and up to 24 inches (60 cm) from the corners of the rear fascia/bumper. These distances depend on the location, type and orientation of the obstacle in the horizontal direction. Rear Park Assist Sensors Location If several obstacles are detected, the ParkSense system indicates the nearest obstacle. corresponds to the maximum height of an obstacle that would clear the underside of the vehicle during the parking maneuver. P ARK S ENSE W ARNING D ISPLAY The ParkSense Warning screen will only be displayed if “Sound and Display” is selected in the The ParkSense Warning screen is located within the instrument cluster display page 56. It provides visual warnings to indicate the distance between the rear fascia/bumper and/or front fascia/bumper and the detected obstacle. P ARK S ENSE D ISPLAY The warning display will turn on indicating the system status when the vehicle is in REVERSE or when the vehicle is in DRIVE and an obstacle has been detected. showing a single arc in the left and/or right front or rear regions based on the object’s distance and location relative to the vehicle. region, the display will show a single arc in the left and/or right rear region 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. 4 |
