The system may then instruct the driver to wait for
steering to complete before then instructing to check
the vehicle’s surroundings, and move backward.
Move Backward
Several more gear shifts (DRIVE and REVERSE) while
keeping hands off of the steering wheel will be
instructed to the driver while checking the vehicle’s
surroundings before completing the parking maneuver.
When the vehicle is in the parking position, the
maneuver is complete and the driver will be instructed
to check the vehicle's parking position, then shift the
vehicle into PARK. The message “Complete! Check
Parking Position” will be displayed momentarily.
NOTE:
●
It is the driver's responsibility to use the brake
and stop the vehicle. The driver should check their
surroundings and be prepared to stop the vehicle
either when instructed to, or when driver intervention
is required.
●
It is the driver’s responsibility to use the brake
and accelerator during the Semi-Automatic parking
maneuver.
●
When the system instructs the driver to remove their
hands from the steering wheel, the driver should
check their surroundings and begin to back up
slowly.
●
The ParkSense Active Park Assist system will allow
a maximum of eight shifts between DRIVE and
REVERSE. If the maneuver cannot be completed
within eight shifts, the system will cancel and the
instrument cluster display will instruct the driver to
complete the maneuver manually.
●
The system will cancel the maneuver if the vehicle
speed exceeds 18 mph (30 km/h) during active
steering guidance into the parking space. The
system will provide a warning to the driver at 15 mph
(25 km/h) that tells them to slow down. The driver is
then responsible for completing the maneuver if the
system is canceled.
●
If the system is canceled during the maneuver for
any reason, the driver must take control of the
vehicle.
WARNING!
●
Drivers must be careful when performing parallel
or perpendicular parking maneuvers even when
using the ParkSense Active Park Assist system.
Always check carefully behind and in front of
your vehicle, look behind and in front of you,
and be sure to check for pedestrians, animals,
other vehicles, obstructions, and blind spots
before backing up and moving forward. 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.

WARNING!
●
Before using the ParkSense Active Park Assist
system, it is strongly recommended that the ball
mount and hitch ball assembly 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 sensors 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!
●
The ParkSense Active Park Assist system 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
the ParkSense Active Park Assist system 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 the ParkSense
Active Park Assist system.
Exiting A Parking Space
