Parksense Rear Park Assist - If Equipped - Chrysler PACIFICA 2018 User Manual

PARKSENSE REAR PARK
ASSIST — IF EQUIPPED
The ParkSense Rear Park Assist system provides
visual and audible indications of the distance be-
tween the rear fascia and a detected obstacle when
backing up, e.g. during a parking maneuver. If your
vehicle is equipped with an Automatic Transmis-
sion, the vehicle brakes may be automatically ap-
plied and released when performing a reverse park-
ing 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 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 ap-
plied fast enough for moving obstacles that ap-
proach the rear of the vehicle from the left and / or
right sides.
• The automatic braking function can be enabled/
disabled from the Customer-Programmable Fea-
tures 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 de-
tected 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 instrument cluster display indicat-
ing the vehicle speed is too fast. The system will
become active again if the vehicle speed is de-
creased to speeds less than approximately 6 mph
(9 km/h).
