PARKSENSE REAR PARK
ASSIST — IF EQUIPPED
The ParkSense Rear Park Assist system pro-
vides visual and audible indications of the dis-
tance between the rear fascia and a detected
obstacle when backing up, e.g. during a parking
maneuver. If your vehicle is equipped with an
Automatic Transmission, the vehicle brakes
may be automatically applied and released
when performing a reverse parking 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 only be
applied if the vehicle deceleration is not
enough to avoid colliding with a detected
obstacle.

• The automatic braking function may not be
applied fast enough for obstacles that move
toward the rear of the vehicle from the left
and/or right sides.
• The automatic braking function can be
enabled/disabled from the
Programmable Features section of the
Uconnect System.
• ParkSense will retain its last known configu-
ration state for the automatic braking function
through ignition cycles.
The automatic braking function is intended to
assist the driver in avoiding possible collisions
with detected obstacles when backing up in
REVERSE gear.
NOTE:
• The driver is always responsible for control-
ling 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 re-
sponsible for the vehicle's movements.
Refer to "ParkSense System Usage Precau-
tions" for limitations of this system and recom-
mendations.
ParkSense will retain the last system state (en-
abled 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 en-
abled 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 sys-
Customer-
tem's operating speed, a warning will appear
within the instrument cluster display indicating
the vehicle speed is too fast. The system will
become active again if the vehicle speed is
decreased to speeds less than approximately
6 mph (9 km/h).

ParkSense Sensors

The four ParkSense sensors, located in the rear
fascia/bumper, monitor the area behind the ve-
hicle that is within the sensors' field of view. The
sensors can detect obstacles from approxi-
mately 12 inches (30 cm) up to 79 inches (200
cm) from the rear fascia/bumper in the horizon-
tal direction, depending on the location, type
and orientation of the obstacle.

ParkSense Warning Display

The ParkSense Warning screen will only be
displayed if Sound and Display is selected from
the Customer - Programmable Features section
of the Uconnect System. Refer to "Uconnect
Settings" in "Multimedia" for further information.
