Enabling And Disabling ParkSense
ParkSense can be enabled and dis-
abled with the ParkSense switch,
located on the switch panel below
the Uconnect display.
When the ParkSense switch is pushed to
disable the system, the instrument cluster
display will show the “PARKSENSE OFF”
message for approximately five seconds. Re-
fer to “Instrument Cluster Display” in “Get-
ting To Know Your Instrument Panel” in your
Owner’s Manual for further details. When the
gear selector is moved to REVERSE and the
system is disabled, the instrument cluster
display will show the “PARKSENSE OFF”
message for as long as the vehicle is in
REVERSE.
The ParkSense switch LED will be on when
ParkSense is disabled or requires service.
The ParkSense switch LED will be off when
the system is enabled. If the ParkSense
switch is pushed, and requires service, the
ParkSense switch LED will blink momen-
tarily, and then the LED will be on.
Side Distance Warning System
The Side Distance Warning system has the
function of detecting the presence of side ob-
stacles near the vehicle using the parking sen-
sors located in the front and rear bumpers.
Side Distance Warning Display
The Side Distance Warning screen will only
be displayed if “Sound and Display” is se-
lected from the Customer - Programmable
Features section of the Uconnect System.
Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multime-
dia” in the Owner’s Manual for further infor-
mation.
The system warns the driver with an acoustic
signal and where provided, with visual indi-
cations on the instrument panel display.
NOTE:
Parksense will reduce the volume of the radio
if on when the system is sounding an audible
tone.
Activation — Deactivation
The system can operate only after driving a
short distance and if the vehicle speed is
between 0 and 7 mph (0 and 11 km/h).
The system can be activated/deactivated via
the "Settings" menu of the Uconnect system.
If the ParkSense System is deactivated via
the ParkSense Hard switch then the side
distance warning system will automatically
be deactivated.
Message on the display for Side Distance
Warning feature:
“Wipe Sensors” — This message is displayed
in the case of a failure of the Side Distance
Warning system sensors. Free the bumpers of
any obstacles, ensure that the front and rear
bumper are free of snow, ice, mud, dirt and
debris to keep the ParkSense system operat-
ing properly.
“SDW Not Available” — This message is
displayed if the Side Distance Warning sys-
tem is not available. The failed operation of
the system might be due to the insufficient
voltage from the battery or other failures on
the electrical system. Contact an authorized
dealer as soon as possible to have the elec-
trical system checked.
