STARTING AND OPERATING
Front Park Assist Audible Alerts
ParkSense will turn off the Front Park Assist audible
alert (chime) after approximately three seconds when
an obstacle has been detected, the vehicle is station-
ary, and brake pedal is applied.
Adjustable Chime Volume Settings
Front and Rear chime volume settings can be selected
from the Uconnect system
page 169.
If the Uconnect system is equipped, chime volume set-
tings will not be accessible from the instrument cluster
display.
The chime volume settings include LOW, MEDIUM, and
HIGH.
ParkSense will retain its last known configuration state
through ignition cycles.
PARKSENSE WARNING DISPLAY
The ParkSense Warning screen will only be displayed if
"Sound and Display" is selected in the Uconnect system
page 169.
The ParkSense Warning screen is located within the
instrument cluster display
page 103. It provides
visual warnings to indicate the distance between the
rear fascia/bumper and/or front fascia/bumper and
the detected obstacle.
ENABLING AND DISABLING
PARKSENSE
ParkSense can be enabled and disabled
with the ParkSense switch located below the
Uconnect display.
When the ParkSense switch is pushed to
disable the system, the instrument cluster will display
the "ParkSense Off" message for approximately five
seconds. When the gear selector is moved to REVERSE
and the system is disabled, the instrument cluster dis-
play will show the "ParkSense Off" message for as long
as the vehicle is in REVERSE.
The ParkSense switch LED will be on when ParkSense
is disabled or requires service. The ParkSense switch
LED will be off when the system is enabled. If the
ParkSense switch is pushed, and requires service, the
ParkSense switch LED will blink momentarily, and then
the LED will be on.
NOTE:
When KeySense feature is present, the ParkSense sys-
tem will reject customer input to turn the system off via
the switch. The instrument cluster display will show
"KeySense in Use Selected Feature Cannot be Dis-
abled" message.
SERVICE THE PARKSENSE PARK
ASSIST SYSTEM
During vehicle start up, when the ParkSense system has
detected a faulted condition, the instrument cluster will
actuate a single chime, once per ignition cycle, and it will
display the "ParkSense Unavailable Wipe Rear Sensors",
"ParkSense Unavailable Wipe Front Sensors", or the
"ParkSense Unavailable Service Required" message for
five seconds. When the gear selector is moved to
REVERSE and the system has detected a faulted condi-
tion, the instrument cluster display will show a
"ParkSense Unavailable Wipe Rear Sensors", "ParkSense
Unavailable Wipe Front Sensors" or "ParkSense Unavail-
able Service Required" pop-up message for five seconds.
After five seconds, a vehicle graphic will be displayed
with a "WIPE OFF" or "SERVICE" overlay, depending on
the location and fault type. The system will continue to
provide arc alerts for the side that is functioning properly.
These arc alerts will interrupt the "ParkSense Unavailable
Wipe Rear Sensors", "ParkSense Unavailable Wipe Front
Sensors", or "ParkSense Unavailable Service Required"
messages if an object is detected within the five second
pop-up duration. The vehicle graphic will remain dis-
played for as long as the vehicle is in REVERSE.
If "ParkSense Unavailable Wipe Rear Sensors",
"ParkSense Unavailable Wipe Front Sensors" appears in
the instrument cluster display make sure the outer sur-
face and the underside of the rear fascia/bumper
and/or front fascia/bumper is clean and clear of snow,
ice, mud, dirt or other obstructions and then cycle the
ignition. If the message continues to appear see an
authorized dealer.
If the "ParkSense Unavailable Service Required" mes-
sage appears in the instrument cluster display, see an
authorized dealer.
CLEANING THE PARKSENSE
SYSTEM
Clean the ParkSense sensors with water, car wash soap
and a soft cloth. Do not use rough or hard cloths. Do
not scratch or poke the sensors.
