Parksense Sensors - RAM Commercial PROMASTER 2022 Owner's Manual

98 STARTING AND OPERATING
ParkSense is active when the gear selector is
shifted to REVERSE or to a forward gear and an
obstacle is detected, as long as the system is on.
When the gear selector shifted to NEUTRAL or
PARK, the system becomes inactive. When the
vehicle is moving forward, the system will remain
active until the vehicle speed remains below
approximately 11 mph (18 km/h). Reducing the
speed approximately below 9 mph (15 km/h), the
system will come back active. When the vehicle is
moving in REVERSE, the system will remain active
as long as the speed remains below the maximum
operating speed of 7 mph (11 km/h). When the
maximum speed limit is exceeded, the system is
disabled and the ParkSense switch LED will
illuminate. The system will become active again if
the vehicle speed reduces below approximately
6 mph (9 km/h).
Interaction With Trailer Towing
The Park Assist system is automatically
deactivated when a trailer is hitched to the vehicle.
The system will be automatically activated as soon
as the trailer is removed.

ARK ENSE ENSORS
The six ParkSense sensors (four when vehicle is not
equipped with front sensors), located in the rear
fascia/bumper, and the six ParkSense sensors
located in the front fascia/bumper, monitor the area
in front and behind the vehicle that is within the
sensors' field of view. The front sensors detect
obstacles from approximately 12 inches (30 cm) up
to 39 inches (100 cm) from the front fascia/bumper.
The rear sensors can detect obstacles from
approximately 12 inches (30 cm) up to 55 inches
(140 cm) from the center of the rear fascia/bumper
and up to 24 inches (60 cm) from the corners of the
rear fascia/bumper. These distances depend on the
location, type and orientation of the obstacle in the
horizontal direction.
Rear Park Assist Sensors Location
If several obstacles are detected, the ParkSense
system indicates the nearest obstacle.
The minimum height of a detectable obstacle
corresponds to the maximum height of an obstacle
that would clear the underside of the vehicle
during the parking maneuver.
