Automatic Parking Assist (APA)
If equipped, under certain conditions
Enhanced Automatic Parking Assist (APA) can
use sensors based on sonar technology
along the vehicle
’
s front, rear and sides to
detect a parking spot and automatically park
the vehicle. The vehicle will automatically
maneuver into a detected spot moving at or
near idle speed. It does this by
automatically steering, braking, accelerating,
and gear shifting. The driver must always be
prepared to apply braking if necessary. A
display and beeps help to guide the parking
maneuvers.
{
Warning
APA may not always detect objects in the
parking space, objects that are not rigid
(e.g. shrubs and chain-link fences), objects
below the bumper, objects high off the
ground (e.g. flatbed trucks), hanging
objects, objects below ground level
(e.g. large potholes), or moving objects
(e.g. pedestrians, cyclists, vehicles).
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
Always verify that the parking space is
appropriate for parking a vehicle. APA
may not respond to changes in the
parking space, such as movement of an
adjacent vehicle, or a person or object
entering the parking space. APA does not
detect or avoid traffic that is behind or
alongside of the vehicle. Always be
prepared to stop the vehicle during the
parking maneuver.
