Cleaning The ParkSense® System

Clean the ParkSense® sensors with water, car wash soap

and a soft cloth. Do not use rough or hard cloths. Do not

scratch or poke the sensors. Otherwise, you could dam-

age the sensors.

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®.

• When you turn ParkSense® OFF, the instrument clus-

ter will display “PARKSENSE OFF” 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 DID will

display “PARKSENSE OFF” message for as long as the

vehicle is in REVERSE.

• 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 the fascia/bumper, or it could provide

a false indication that an obstacle is behind the fascia/

bumper.
