(30 cm) of the rear fascia/bumper. Failure to do so
can result in the system misinterpreting a close
obstacle as a sensor problem, causing the
“PARKSENSE UNAVAILABLE SERVICE REQUIRED”
message to appear in the instrument cluster display.
•
ParkSense should be disabled when the tailgate is
in the lowered or open position. A lowered tailgate
could provide a false indication that an obstacle is
behind the vehicle.
WARNING!
•
Drivers must be careful when backing up even
when using ParkSense. Always check carefully
behind your vehicle, look behind you, and be sure
to check for pedestrians, animals, other vehicles,
obstructions, and blind spots before backing up.
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.
•
Before using ParkSense, it is strongly recom-
mended that the ball mount and hitch ball assem-
bly be disconnected from the vehicle when the
vehicle is not used for towing. Failure to do so can
result in injury or damage to vehicles or obstacles
because the hitch ball will be much closer to the
obstacle than the rear fascia/bumper when the
vehicle sounds the continuous tone. Also, the sen-
sors could detect the ball mount and hitch ball
assembly, depending on its size and shape, giving
a false indication that an obstacle is behind the
vehicle.
CAUTION!
•
ParkSense 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.
•
The vehicle must be driven slowly when using
ParkSense in order to be able to stop in time when
an obstacle is detected. It is recommended that
the driver looks over his/her shoulder when using
ParkSense.
PARKVIEW REAR BACK UP CAMERA
The ParkView Rear Back Up Camera allows you to see
an on-screen image of the rear surroundings of your
vehicle whenever the gear selector is in REVERSE. The
image will be displayed in the touchscreen display
along with a caution note to “Check Entire Surround-
ings” across the top of the screen. After five seconds
this note will disappear. The ParkView camera is
located on the tailgate, above the vehicle license plate.
NOTE:
Removing the tailgate will disable the rearview camera
function.
Manual Activation Of The Rear View Camera
1. Go to the Controls screen by pressing the Controls
button located on the bottom of the Uconnect dis-
play, and then press Back Up Camera.
2. Press the Back Up Camera button to turn the Rear
View Camera system on.
When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE with Cam-
era delay turned off, the rear Camera mode is exited
and the previous screen appears again.
When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE with Cam-
era delay turned on, the rear Camera image will be dis-
played for up to 10 seconds unless the vehicle speed
exceeds 8 mph (13 km/h), the transmission is shifted
into PARK, the ignition is placed in the OFF position, or
the touchscreen X button to disable display of the Rear
View Camera image is pressed.
Whenever the Rear View Camera image is activated
through the Back Up Camera button in the Controls
menu, and the vehicle speed is greater than, or equal
to 8 mph (13 km/h), a display timer for the image is
initiated. The image will continue to be displayed until
the display timer exceeds 10 seconds.
NOTE:
•
If the vehicle speed remains below 8 mph
(13 km/h), the Rear View Camera image will be dis-
played continuously until deactivated via the touch-
screen X button, the transmission is shifted into
PARK, or the ignition is placed in the OFF position.
•
The touchscreen X button to disable display of the
camera image is made available ONLY when the
vehicle is not in REVERSE.
When enabled, active guidelines are overlaid on the
image to illustrate the width of the vehicle and its pro-
jected backup path based on the steering wheel posi-
tion. A dashed center line overlay indicates the center
of the vehicle to assist with parking or aligning to a
hitch/receiver.
Different colored zones indicate the distance to the rear
of the vehicle.
