NOTE:
The function does not work for exiting a perpen-
dicular parking space, but only exiting parallel
parking spaces.
Activation
To activate this function, shift to DRIVE, push the
ParkSense Active Park Assist switch, and then use
the steering wheel arrow buttons to select the
Parallel Park Exit feature. After the selection, the
system activates and instructs the driver through
the instrument cluster display about the
operations that have to be carried out to perform
the maneuver correctly.
Start Of Maneuver
During the maneuver, the system asks the driver to
shift to REVERSE, and operate the turn signal in
the direction you want to exit. Let go of the steering
wheel and use the brake or accelerator pedals
while the system handles the steering
automatically for exiting the parking space. If the
driver continues to carry out a voluntary or
involuntary action on the steering wheel during the
exit maneuver (touching or holding the steering
wheel to prevent its movement), the maneuver will
be interrupted.
Shift To Reverse Then Move Backward
Shift To Drive Then Move Forward
End Of Maneuver
The semi-automatic maneuver ends when the
display shows the message of a completed
maneuver. At the end of the maneuver, the system
gives back the vehicle control to the driver.
Important Information
If the sensors undergo impact which alters their

position, the system operation could be greatly
affected.
The sensors reach top performance after the

vehicle has gone about 30 miles (50 km) due to
the dynamic tire circumference calculations
used for parking.
Clean the ParkSense sensors regularly, taking

care not to scratch or damage them. The
sensors must not be covered with ice, snow,
slush, mud, dirt or debris. Failure to do so can
result in the system not working properly. The
ParkSense system might not detect an obstacle
behind or in front of the fascia/bumper, or it
could provide a false indication that an obstacle
is behind or in front of the fascia/bumper.
Construction equipment, large trucks, and

other vibrations could affect the performance
of ParkSense.
Sensors may detect a nonexistent obstacle

(echo noise) due to mechanical noises, for
example while washing the vehicle or in the
case of rain, strong wind, and hail.
