Rear Park Assist Sensors

The four Rear Park Assist sensors, located in the rear
fascia/bumper, monitor the area behind the vehicle that
is within the sensors' field of view. The sensors can
detect obstacles, in the horizontal direction, from ap-
proximately 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, depending on the location, type and orienta-
tion of the obstacle.
If several obstacles are detected, the Rear Park Assist
system indicates the nearest obstacle.
The minimum height of a detectable obstacle corre-
sponds to the maximum height of an obstacle that
would clear the underside of the vehicle during the
parking maneuver.

Rear Park Assist Warning Display

The Rear Park Assist Warning screen is located within
the Uconnect Settings. It provides audible and visual
warnings to indicate the distance between the rear
fascia/bumper and the detected obstacle. Refer to
Uconnect Settings in "Understanding Your Instrument
Panel for further information.

Rear Park Assist Display

When the vehicle is in REVERSE, the warning display
will turn ON indicating the system status.
The system will indicate a detected obstacle by showing
arcs in one or more regions based on the obstacle's
distance and location relative to the vehicle.
If an obstacle is detected in the center rear region, the
display will show solid arcs in the center rear region
and will produce an audible alert. As the vehicle moves
closer to the obstacle, the display will show fewer arcs
and the audible alert becomes more frequent.
If an obstacle is detected in the left and/or right rear
region, the display will show solid arcs in the left
and/or right rear region and will produce an audible
alert. As the vehicle moves closer to the obstacle, the
display will show fewer arcs and the audible alert
becomes more frequent.

Rear Park Assist Audible Alerts

If an obstacle is behind the vehicle when the transmis-
sion is placed into REVERSE, an audible alert is acti-
vated.
