• When you move the shift lever to the REVERSE

position and ParkSense® is turned OFF, the DID will

display “PARKSENSE OFF” message for as long as the

vehicle is in REVERSE.

• 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.

• Use the ParkSense® switch to turn the ParkSense®

system OFF if objects such as bicycle carriers, trailer

hitches, etc. are placed within 12 in (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

DID.

CAUTION!

ParkSense® is only a parking aid and it is unable to

recognize every obstacle, including small obstacles.
Parking curbs might be temporarily detected or not
detected at all. Obstacles located above or below
the sensors will not be detected when they are in
close proximity.

The vehicle must be driven slowly when using

ParkSense® in order to be able to stop in time
when an obstacle is detected. It is recommended
that the driver looks over his/her shoulder when
using ParkSense®.
