360° Surround System - Jeep COMPASS Owner's Handbook Manual

NOTES:
Correct system operation is not
guaranteed if snow chains or the space-
saver spare wheel are fitted.
The function only informs the driver
about the last appropriate parking place
(parallel or perpendicular) detected by
the parking sensors.
The function will only indicate the
free spaces between two vehicles. If the
space is wider than the equivalent of two
parking spaces, it will not be identified
as a parking zone (open space).
Some messages displayed are
accompanied by acoustic warnings.
WARNING
283) Parking and other dangerous
manoeuvres are, however, always the
driver's responsibility. While carrying out
these manoeuvres, always make sure that
no people (especially children) or animals
are in the area concerned. The parking
sensors are an aid for the driver, but the
driver must never allow their attention
to lapse during potentially dangerous
manoeuvres, even those executed at low
speeds.
284) The search for the parking space
and the parking manoeuvres must be
performed in compliance with the current
regulations of the Highway Code.
285) Drivers must be careful when
performing parallel or perpendicular
parking maneuvers even when using the
ParkSense Active Park Assist system.
Always check carefully behind and in
front of your vehicle, look behind and in
front of you, and be sure to check for
pedestrians, animals, other vehicles,
obstructions, and blind spots before
backing up and moving forward. You are
responsible for safety and must continue
to pay attention to your surroundings.
Failure to do so can result in serious
injury or death.
286) If you wish to stop the steering
wheel with your hands during a
manoeuvre, it is advisable to handle it
firmly on the outer rim. Do not try and
keep your hands on the inside or hold the
spokes.
IMPORTANT
78) The operation of the system is based
on various components: front and rear
parking sensors, side sensors, steering
system, wheels, braking system and
instrument panel. The malfunction of one
of these components could compromise
the operation of the system.
79) Only have the bumper repainted or
any retouches to the paintwork in the
area of the sensors carried out by a Jeep
Dealership. Incorrect paint application
could affect the operation of the parking
sensors.
80) The Active ParkSense system
(Automatic Park Assist) 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
located above or below the sensors will
not be detected when they are in close
proximity.
81) The car must be driven slowly when
using Active ParkSense (Automatic Park
Assist) to be able to stop in time when the
obstacle is detected. It is recommended
that the driver looks over his/her shoulder
when using the Active ParkSense
(Automatic Park Assist) system.
360° SURROUND SYSTEM
(where provided)
The system uses four cameras to monitor
the area around the car, located on the
front grille, under the side mirrors and on
the liftgate.
When the gear lever is moved to the R
(Reverse) position, the area around the
car will automatically be shown on the
Uconnect™ system display.
The image will be displayed with active
guidelines while in reverse as long as the
car speed remains below 12 km/h.
When shifting gears, the image remains
displayed for 10 seconds or until the
gear lever is moved to P (Park) or the
speed of 12 km/h is exceeded.
When the gear lever is moved to P
(Park), N (Neutral) or D (Drive),
the system can be activated or
deactivated via the button
Uconnect™system.
Once the "Surround Camera" screen is
displayed, you can choose which images
to display by choosing from 5 possible
configurations by pressing the buttons
on the
