ParkSense Rear Park Assist Sensors
The four ParkSense Rear Park Assist sensors, located in the
rear fascia/bumper, monitor the area behind the vehicle
that is within the sensors’ field of view. The sensors can
detect obstacles, in the horizontal direction, from approxi-
mately 12 inches (30 cm) up to 55 inches (140 cm) from the
center of the rear fascia/bumper and up to 24 inches (60
cm) from the corners of the rear fascia/bumper, depending
on the location, type and orientation of the obstacle.
If several obstacles are detected, the ParkSense Rear Park
Assist system indicates the nearest obstacle.
The minimum height of a detectable obstacle corresponds
to the maximum height of an obstacle that would clear the
underside of the vehicle during the parking maneuver.
ParkSense Rear Park Assist Alerts
If an obstacle is behind the vehicle when REVERSE gear is
engaged, an audible alert is activated.
The tones emitted by the loudspeaker inform the driver
that the vehicle is approaching an obstacle. The pauses
between the tones are directly proportional to the distance
from the obstacle. Pulses emitted in quick succession
indicate the presence of a very close obstacle. A continuous
tone indicates that the obstacle is less than 12 inches (30
cm) away.
