Enabling And Disabling The Parksense Active Park Assist System - Dodge HORNET 2023 Owner's Manual

 During a semi-automatic maneuver, if the driver
touches the steering wheel after being instructed to
remove their hands from the steering wheel, the
system will cancel, and the driver will be required to
manually complete the parking maneuver.
 The system may not work in all conditions (e.g. environ-
mental conditions such as heavy rain, snow, etc., or if
searching for a parking space that has surfaces that
will absorb the ultrasonic sensor waves).
 New vehicles from the dealership must have at least
30 miles (48 km) accumulated before the ParkSense
Active Park Assist system is fully calibrated and
performs accurately. This is due to the system's
dynamic vehicle calibration to improve the perfor-
mance of the feature. The system will also continuously
perform the dynamic vehicle calibration to account for
differences such as over or under inflated tires and
new tires.

intervention.
The ParkSense Active Park Assist system will allow a
maximum number of shifts between DRIVE and REVERSE.
If the maneuver cannot be completed within the maximum
amount of shifts, the system will cancel and the
instrument cluster display will instruct the driver to
complete the maneuver manually.
STARTING AND OPERATING
The ParkSense Active Park Assist system will only operate
and search for a parking space when the following
conditions are present:
 Gear selector is in DRIVE.
 Ignition is in the RUN position.
 ParkSense Active Park Assist switch is activated.
 Driver's door is closed.
 Rear liftgate is closed.
 Vehicle speed is less than 18 mph (30 km/h).
 The outer surface and the underside of the front and
rear fascias/bumpers are clean and clear of snow, ice,
mud, dirt or other obstructions.
NOTE:
If the vehicle is driven above approximately 15 mph
(25 km/h), the instrument cluster display will instruct the
driver to slow down. If the vehicle is driven above approxi-
mately 18 mph (30 km/h), the system will cancel. The
driver must then reactivate the system by pushing the
ParkSense Active Park Assist switch.
When pushed, the LED on the ParkSense Active Park
Assist switch will blink momentarily, and then the LED will
turn off if any of the preceding conditions are not present.
If the vehicle is in any other gear than DRIVE, and an
objected is detected, the system will default to Parallel
Park Exit. A prompt will appear in the radio screen, and the
driver will need to select "Yes" or "No" for a Parallel Park
Exit maneuver. Any other conditions will result in a default
to a Parallel Parking maneuver.
