Parksense Active Park Assist System - Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid 2018 User Manual

CAUTION!
• ParkSense is only a parking aid and it is unable
to recognize every obstacle, including small
obstacles. Parking curbs might be temporarily
detected or not detected at all. Obstacles lo-
cated above or below the sensors will not be
detected when they are in close proximity.
• The vehicle must be driven slowly when using
ParkSense in order to be able to stop in time
when an obstacle is detected. It is recom-
mended that the driver looks over his/her
shoulder when using ParkSense.
PARKSENSE ACTIVE
PARK ASSIST SYSTEM
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 con-
trolling the steering wheel. The ParkSense Active Park
Assist system is defined as "semi-automatic" since the
driver maintains control of the accelerator, gear selec-
tor 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. envi-
ronmental 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 cali-
brated 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 differences such as over
or under inflated tires and new tires.
