Parking Aid System

Ultrasonic Sensor Parking Aid

The purpose of the parking aid system is to
assist the driver during reversing! The sensors
may not be able to detect certain types
of obstruction, e.g. narrow posts or small
objects no more than a few inches wide,
small objects close to the ground, objects
above the tailgate and some objects with
nonreflective surfaces.
Keep the sensors free from dirt, ice and snow.
If deposits build up on the surface of the
sensors, their performance may be impaired.
When washing the car, avoid aiming high
pressure water jets directly at the sensors
from close range.
Rear Parking Aid
The ultrasonic sensors on the rear bumper monitor the
area behind the vehicle to search for obstacles. If an
obstacle is detected, the system will calculate its distance
Starting and Driving
from the rear of the vehicle and communicates the message
to the driver by sounding warning chimes.
Front Parking Aid
Some models also have ultrasonic sensors equipped on the
front bumper to monitor the area ahead of the vehicle to
search for obstacles. If an obstacle is detected, the system
will calculate its distance from the front of the vehicle
and communicates the message to the driver by sounding
warning chimes.
Parking Aid Switch
The parking aid switch is a soft switch located in the
entertainment display. When the shift lever is in N or D
position, enter the car setting interface, select the driving
assistant, turn on/off the parking aid system.
When the shift lever is in R position, the parking aid can
not be turned off.
