While audible signals are emitted, the audio system is
muted.
The audible signal is turned off immediately if the distance
increases. The tone cycle remains constant if the distance
measured by the inner sensors is constant. If this condition
occurs for the external sensors, the signal is turned off after
three seconds (stopping warnings during maneuvers par-
allel to walls).
ParkSense Rear Park Assist Failure Indications
A malfunction of the ParkSense sensors or system is
indicated, during REVERSE gear engagement, by the in-
strument panel warning icon.
The warning icon is illuminated and a message is
displayed on the instrument cluster display (if
equipped). Refer to “Warning Lights And Mes-
sages” in “Getting To Know Your Instrument
Panel” for further information.
The sensors and wiring are tested continuously when the
ignition is in the ON/RUN position. Failures are indicated
immediately if they occur when the system is on.
Even if the system is able to identify that a specific sensor
is in failure condition, the instrument cluster display shall
indicate that the ParkSense system is unavailable, without
reference to the sensor in failure condition. If even a single
sensor fails, the entire system must be disabled. The system
is turned off automatically.
Cleaning The ParkSense Rear Park Assist System
Clean the ParkSense sensors with water, car wash soap and
a soft cloth. Do not use rough or hard cloths. In washing
stations, clean sensors quickly while keeping the vapor
jet/high pressure washing nozzles at least 4 inches (10 cm)
from the sensors. Do not scratch or poke the sensors.
Otherwise, you could damage the sensors.
