ParkSense® System Usage Precautions

NOTE:

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

dirt and debris to keep the ParkSense® system oper-

ating properly.

• Jackhammers, large trucks, and other vibrations could

affect the performance of ParkSense® or render the

system temporarily unavailable.

• When you turn ParkSense® off in DRIVE, the instru-

ment cluster will display ЉPARKSENSE OFFЉ for five

seconds. Furthermore, once you turn ParkSense® off,

it remains off until you turn it on again, even if you

cycle the ignition.

• When you move the shift lever to the REVERSE position

and ParkSense® is turned off, the Driver Information

Display (DID) will display “PARKSENSE OFF” message

for as long as the vehicle is in REVERSE.

• ParkSense® will reduce the volume of the radio when

it is sounding an audio 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.

• Ensure the ParkSense® system is OFF if objects such as

bicycle carriers, trailer hitches, etc., are placed within

12 inches 30 (cm) from the rear fascia/bumper. Failure

to do so can result in the system misinterpreting a

close object as a sensor problem, causing the

“PARKSENSE UNAVAILABLE SERVICE REQUIRED”

message to be displayed in the Driver Information

Display (DID).
