PARKSENSE® ACTIVE PARK
ASSIST SYSTEM — IF
EQUIPPED
The ParkSense® Active Park Assist system is
intended to assist the driver during parallel and
perpendicular parking maneuvers by identifying
a proper parking space, providing audible/visual
instructions, and controlling the steering wheel.
The ParkSense® Active Park Assist system is
defined as “semi-automatic” since the driver
maintains control of the accelerator, shift lever
and brakes. Depending on the driver’s parking
maneuver selection, the ParkSense® Active
Park Assist system is capable of maneuvering a
vehicle into a parallel or a perpendicular parking
space on either side (i.e., driver side or passen-
ger side).
NOTE:
•
The driver is always responsible for con-
trolling the vehicle, responsible for any
surrounding objects, and must intervene
as required.
•
The system is provided to assist the
driver and not to substitute the driver.
•
During a semi-automatic maneuver, if the
driver touches the steering wheel after
being instructed to remove their hands
from the steering wheel, the system will
cancel, and the driver will be required to
manually complete the parking maneuver.
•
The system may not work in all conditions
(e.g. environmental conditions such as
heavy rain, snow, etc., or if searching for
a parking space that has surfaces that will
absorb the ultrasonic sensor waves).
•
New vehicles from the dealership must
have at least 30 miles accumulated before
the ParkSense® Active Park Assist sys-
tem is fully calibrated and performs accu-
rately. This is due to the system’s dy-
namic vehicle calibration to improve the
performance of the feature. The system
will also continuously perform the dy-
namic vehicle calibration to account for
differences such as over or under inflated
tires and new tires.
