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 Customer Pro-
grammable 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 or DRIVE. If ParkSense
is enabled at one of these gear selector posi-
tions, the system will remain active until the
vehicle speed is increased to approximately
7 mph (11 km/h) or above. A display warning will
appear in the instrument cluster display indicat-
ing the vehicle is above ParkSense operating
speed. 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.
The six ParkSense sensors, located in the front
fascia/bumper, monitor the area in front of the
vehicle that is within the sensors' field of view.
The sensors can detect obstacles from approxi-
mately 12 inches (30 cm) up to 47 inches
(120 cm) from the front fascia/bumper in the
horizontal 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.
The ParkSense Warning screen is located
within the instrument cluster display. It provides
visual warnings to indicate the distance between
the rear fascia/bumper and/or front fascia/
bumper and the detected obstacle. Refer to
"Instrument Cluster Display" in "Getting To Know
Your Instrument Panel" for further information.
ParkSense Display
The warning display will turn on indicating the
system status when the vehicle is in REVERSE
or when the vehicle is in DRIVE and an obstacle
has been detected.
