Rear park assist sensors – Dodge 2009 Caravan User Manual
Page 189
The Rear Park Assist system will remember the last
system state (enabled or disabled) from the last ignition
cycle, when the ignition is changed to the RUN/ON
position.
The Rear Park Assist system can be active only when the
shift lever is in REVERSE. When in REVERSE, the system
scans for objects behind the vehicle, using four sensors
located in the rear bumper.
NOTE:
The system will be active until the vehicle speed
is increased to approximately 11 mph (18 km/h) or
above. The system will be active again if the vehicle
speed is decreased to speeds less than approximately
10 mph (16 km/h).
Rear Park Assist Sensors
The four rear park assist sensors, located in the rear
fascia, monitor the area behind the vehicle that is within
the sensors’ field of view. The monitored area seems oval
in shape. The sensors can detect obstacles from approxi-
mately 11.8 in (30 cm) up to 78.7 in (200 cm) from the rear
fascia in the horizontal direction, depending on the
location and orientation of the obstacle and the type of
obstacle.
Rear Park Assist Warning Display
The Rear Park Assist Warning Display, located in the
headliner near the liftgate glass, provides both visible
and audible warnings to indicate the distance between
the rear fascia and the detected obstacle.
