Parallel/Perpendicular Parking Space
Assistance Operation
When the ParkSense Active Park Assist system is
enabled, the driver must press “Park” on the Uconnect
display, and the system will begin searching for valid
parallel and perpendicular parking spaces.
NOTE:
If your vehicle is equipped with a Fully Automated
system, you may have to update your selected setting
in the Uconnect system to switch to a Semi-Automatic
maneuver
.
NOTE:
●
The driver needs to make sure that the selected
parking space for the maneuver remains free and
clear of any obstructions (e.g. pedestrians, bicycles,
etc.).
●
The driver is responsible to ensure that the selected
parking space is suitable for the maneuver and free/
clear of anything that may be overhanging or
protruding into the parking space (e.g., ladders,
tailgates, etc. from surrounding objects/vehicles).
●
When searching for a parking space, the driver should
drive as parallel or perpendicular (depending on the
type of maneuver) to other vehicles as possible.
●
While the vehicle is in DRIVE, there will be a full
screen image in the Uconnect display. If the driver
shifts to REVERSE while searching for a parking
space, a camera image will appear in the Uconnect
display with a “Shift To Drive” message.
Both types of valid spaces (parallel and perpendicular)
will be displayed in the Uconnect display as they are
found. The available spaces will update in real time.
When valid parking spaces have been found, and the
vehicle is not in position, you will be instructed to move
forward to position the vehicle for a perpendicular or
parallel parking sequence (depending on the type of
maneuver being performed).
The Semi-Automatic system will detect a vacant parking
spot between two parked vehicles.
A chime will sound, and the driver will be instructed to
stop the vehicle and to select a space. This can be done
by pressing the desired space on the Uconnect display.
Select A Space
If the driver selects a perpendicular parking space, the
system will prompt the driver to choose a Forward or
Reverse parking method.
Choose Perpendicular Parking Method
After a parking space has been selected, the driver will
be instructed to remove hands from the steering wheel
and shift into REVERSE.
Remove Hands From Wheel And Shift To Reverse
Once active steering begins, a camera image will
appear in the Uconnect display with instructions that
will display for the duration of the maneuver.
