Radio Volume
Reduced
Yes Yes
NOTE:
Parksense will reduce the volume of the radio if on
when the system is sounding an audible tone. An
audible tone will only sound if a collision is possible.
Activation/Deactivation
The system can operate only after driving a short dis-
tance and if the vehicle speed is between 0 and 7 mph
(0 and 11 km/h). The system can be activated/
deactivated via the Settings menu of the Uconnect sys-
tem. If the ParkSense System is deactivated via the
ParkSense hard switch, then the Side Distance Warning
system will automatically be deactivated.
The system will automatically deactivate if any door is
opened.
ParkSense Park Assist System Usage
Precautions
NOTE:
•
Ensure that the front and rear fascia/bumper are
free of snow, ice, mud, dirt and debris to keep the
ParkSense system operating properly.
•
Construction equipment, large trucks, and other
vibrations could affect the performance of
ParkSense.
•
When you turn ParkSense off, the instrument clus-
ter display will read “PARKSENSE OFF.” Further-
more, once you turn ParkSense off, it remains off
until you turn it on again, even if you cycle the igni-
tion key.
•
ParkSense, when on, will reduce the volume of the
radio when it is sounding a tone.
•
Clean the ParkSense sensors regularly, taking care
not to scratch or damage them. The sensors must
not be covered with ice, snow, slush, mud, dirt or
debris. Failure to do so can result in the system not
working properly. The ParkSense system might not
detect an obstacle behind or in front of the fascia/
bumper, or it could provide a false indication that an
obstacle is behind or in front of the fascia/bumper.
•
Use the ParkSense switch to turn the ParkSense
system and Side Distance Warning off if objects
such as bicycle carriers, etc. are placed within
12 inches (30 cm) from the rear fascia/bumper.
Failure to do so can result in the system misinter-
preting a close object as a sensor problem, causing
the “PARKSENSE UNAVAILABLE SERVICE
REQUIRED” message to be displayed in the instru-
ment cluster display.
NOTE:
If any objects are attached to the bumper within a
6.5 ft (2 m) field of view, they will interfere and
cause false alerts and possibly blockage.
•
There may be a delay in the object detection rate if
the object is moving.
•
The operation of the rear sensors is automatically
deactivated when the trailer's electric plug is
inserted in the vehicle's tow hook socket, while the
front sensors stay active and can provide acoustic
and visual warnings. The rear sensors are automati-
cally reactivated when the trailer's cable plug is
removed.
WARNING!
•
Drivers must be careful when backing up even
when using Side Distance Warning. Always check
carefully behind your vehicle, look behind you, and
be sure to check for pedestrians, animals, other
vehicles, obstructions, and blind spots before
backing up. You are responsible for safety and
must continue to pay attention to your surround-
ings. Failure to do so can result in serious injury or
death.
•
Before using Side Distance Warning, 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 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.
