4.3 Parking Aid
WARNINGS:
To help avoid personal injury, always use
caution when in reverse (R) and when
using the sensing system.
The system may not detect objects with
surfaces that absorb reflection. Always
drive with due care and attention. Failure
to take care may result in a crash.
Traffic control systems, inclement
weather, air brakes, external motors and
fans may affect the correct operation of
the sensing system. This may cause
reduced performance or false alerts.
The system may not detect small or
moving objects, particularly those close
to the ground.
Modifying tire diameter or wheel offset
may cause a reduction in the performance
of the Active Park Assist feature, and/or
the feature may not function correctly,
with the potential cause injury."
Do not use the system with items that
extend past the front and rear ends of the
vehicle, for example, bike rack
accessories. The system is not able to
correct for the additional extrusions.
You must remain in your vehicle when the
system turns on. At all times you are
responsible for controlling your vehicle,
supervising the system and intervening,
if required. Failure to take care may result
in loss of control of your vehicle, serious
personal injury or death.
The sensors may not detect objects in
heavy rain or other conditions that cause
interference.
You are responsible for controlling your
vehicle at all times. The system is
designed to be an aid and does not relieve
you of your responsibility to drive with
due care and attention. Failure to follow
this instruction could result in the loss of
control of your vehicle, personal injury or
death.
NOTE: Keep the sensors free from snow, ice and
large accumulations of dirt. If the sensors are
covered, the system’s accuracy can be affected.
Do not clean the sensors with sharp objects.
NOTE: If your vehicle sustains damage to the
bumper or fascia, leaving it misaligned or bent,
the sensing zone may be altered causing
inaccurate measurement of obstacles or false
alerts.
NOTE: Certain add-on devices installed around
the bumper or fascia may create false alerts. For
example, large trailer hitches, bike or surfboard
racks, license plate brackets, bumper covers or
any other device that may block the normal
detection zone of the system. Remove the add-on
device to prevent false alerts.
The parking aid sensing system warns the driver
of obstacles within a certain range of your vehicle.
The system turns on automatically whenever you
switch the ignition on. The system can be
switched off via the following methods:
• Through the information display menu.
• From the pop-up message that appears once
you shift the transmission into reverse (R).
• Using the Parking Aid Button (if equipped).
If a fault is present in the system, a warning
message appears in the information display. See
the vehicle owner manual for further information
on the correct operation of the parking aid system.
Where possible, parking aid sensors should not
be moved from the original positions on the X, Y
and Z plane. Maintaining the sensors location on
these planes is important for correct operation of
the system.
