Parksense rear park assist - if
equipped
The ParkSense Rear Park Assist system provides visual
and audible indications of the distance between the rear
fascia and a detected obstacle when backing up, e.g.
during a parking maneuver. If your vehicle is equipped
with an Automatic Transmission, the vehicle brakes may
be automatically 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 ParkSense Park
Assist system or the Braking System Module.
- The automatic braking function may only be applied if
the vehicle deceleration is not enough to avoid colliding
with a detected obstacle.
- The automatic braking function may not be applied
fast enough for obstacles that move toward 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 configuration state
for the automatic braking function 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 Precautions 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 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 Driver
Information Display (DID) 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).
