System Usage Precautions

NOTE:

• Ensure that the rear bumper is free of snow, ice, mud,

dirt and debris to keep the ParkSense

௡ system operat-

ing properly.

• Jackhammers, large trucks, and other vibrations could

affect the performance of ParkSense

௡.

• When you turn ParkSense௡ off, the instrument cluster

will display “PARK ASSIST OFF.” Furthermore, once
you turn ParkSense

௡ off, it remains off until you turn

it on again, even if you cycle the ignition key.

• When you move the shift lever to the REVERSE

position and ParkSense

௡ is turned off, the instrument

cluster will display “PARK ASSIST OFF” message for
as long as the vehicle is in REVERSE.

• ParkSense௡, when on, will MUTE 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 the fascia/bumper, or it could provide
a false indication that an obstacle is behind the fascia/
bumper.

• Objects such as bicycle carriers, trailer hitches, etc.,

must not be placed within 12 in (30 cm) from the rear
fascia/bumper while driving the vehicle. Failure to do
so can result in the system misinterpreting a close
object as a sensor problem, causing the “SERVICE
PARK ASSIST SYSTEM” message to be displayed in
the EVIC.
