Parking Aids - Ford Transit Owner's Manual

A Front detection zone: Up to 31 in
(80 cm) directly in front of the
front bumper, and approximately
6-14 in (15-35 cm) to the side of
the front bumper.
B Rear detection zone: Up to 72 in
(183 cm) from the rear bumper.
Note: Accessories that block the detection
zone of the system may create false alerts.
Note: Keep the sensors free from snow, ice
and large accumulations of dirt.
Note: If your vehicle sustains damage
leaving the sensors misaligned, this will
cause inaccurate measurements or false
alerts.
A tone will sound in the following manner
when objects are near the front or rear
bumpers:
• Objects detected by the front sensors
produce a high-pitched tone from the
front speakers.
• Objects detected by the rear sensors
produce a low-pitched tone from the
rear speakers.

Parking Aids

• The system reports the object that is
closest to the front or rear of your
vehicle. For example, if an object is
24 in (60 cm) from the front of your
vehicle and at the same time, an object
is only 16 in (40 cm) from the rear of
your vehicle, a lower-pitched tone
sounds from the rear speakers.
• An alternating tone sounds from the
front and rear speakers if there are
objects that are closer than 10 in
(25 cm) from the front and rear of your
vehicle.
• An alert will only sound for three
seconds if an object is further than 10 in
(25 cm) from the side of your vehicle.
Note: The rate of the tone increases as your
vehicle moves closer to an object.
When the parking aid system sounds a
tone, the audio system may reduce the set
volume. When the warning ends, the audio
system returns to the previously set
volume.
Note: Volume reduction is not a standard
feature of all audio systems.
The system detects objects when you shift
into reverse (R) and:
• Your vehicle is moving toward a
stationary object at a speed of 3 mph
(5 km/h) or less.
• Your vehicle is stationary but an object
is approaching your vehicle at a speed
of 3 mph (5 km/h) or less.
• Your vehicle is moving at a speed of
3 mph (5 km/h) or less, and an object
is approaching your vehicle at a speed
of 3 mph (5 km/h) or less.
