ParkSense Active Park Assist System — If Equipped
The ParkSense Active Park Assist system is intended to assist the driver during parallel and
perpendicular parking maneuvers by identifying a proper parking space, providing audible/visual
instructions, and controlling the steering wheel. The ParkSense Active Park Assist system is defined
as "semi-automatic" since the driver maintains control of the accelerator, gear selector and brakes.
Depending on the driver's parking maneuver selection, the ParkSense Active Park Assist system is
capable of maneuvering a vehicle into a parallel or a perpendicular parking space on either side (i.e.,
driver side or passenger side).
NOTE:
• The driver is always responsible for controlling the vehicle, responsible for any surrounding
objects, and must intervene as required.
• The system is provided to assist the driver and not to substitute the driver.
• 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. environmental 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 performance of the feature. The
system will also continuously perform the dynamic vehicle calibration to account for differ-
ences such as over or under inflated tires and new tires.
Enabling And Disabling The ParkSense Active Park Assist System
The ParkSense Active Park Assist system can be enabled and disabled with the ParkSense Active
Park Assist switch, located on the switch panel below the Uconnect display.
To enable the ParkSense Active Park Assist
system, push the ParkSense Active Park Assist
switch once (LED turns on).
To disable the ParkSense Active Park Assist
system, push the ParkSense Active Park Assist

When the ParkSense Active Park Assist system is
enabled the "Active ParkSense Searching - Push
OK to Switch to Perpendicular" message will
appear in the instrument cluster display. You may
switch to perpendicular parking if you desire.
Push the OK button on the left side steering
wheel switch to change your parking space set-
ting. You may switch back to parallel parking if
you desire.
