PARKSENSESYSTEM -
Versions with 4 sensors
(where provided)
The ParkSense Rear Park Assist system
provides visual and audible indications
of the distance between the rear bumper
and a detected obstacle when backing
up, e.g. during a parking manoeuvre.
Refer to “ParkSense System Usage
Precautions” for limitations of this
system and recommendations.
The ParkSense system will retain the last
system state (enabled or disabled) from
the last ignition cycle when the ignition
device is changed to ENGINE position.
The ParkSense system is only active
when the automatic transmission lever is
in the R (Reverse) position or the manual
gear lever is in reverse. The system will
remain active until the car speed is
increased to approximately 11 km/h or
above. When in reverse and above the
system's operating speed, a warning will
appear in the instrument panel display
indicating that the car speed is too fast.
The system will become active again if
the car speed is decreased to speeds less
than approximately 11 km/h.
ParkSense Sensors
The parking sensors, located in the rear
bumper, detect the presence of any
obstacles and warn the driver about
them, through an acoustic warning and,
where provided, visual indications on the
instrument panel display.
The sensors can detect obstacles from
a distance of about 30 cm up to 200
cm from the rear bumper horizontally,
depending on the position, orientation
and type of obstacle.
ParkSense signalling display
The ParkSense indication display
appears only if "Sound and Display" was
selected under the "ParkSense" item
in the Uconnect ™ system. Refer to
“Settings” in the “Multimedia” section
for further information.
The ParkSense warning screen is located
on the instrument panel display. It
provides visual indication of the distance
between the rear bumper and the
detected obstacle. For more information,
refer to the “Display” chapter in the
“Knowing the instrument panel” section.
ParkSense Display
When the gear lever is in reverse, the
instrument panel display shows the
availability of the park assist system.
The system will indicate a detected
obstacle by showing a single arc in one
or more regions based on the obstacle’s
distance and location relative to the car.
If an obstacle is detected in the centre
rear region, the display will show a single
solid arc in the centre rear region. As
the car moves closer to the obstacle,
the display will show the single arc
moving closer to the car and the acoustic
warning will increase as the objects gets
close to the car.
If an obstacle is detected in the left
and/or right rear part, the display
will show a single flashing arc in the
corresponding left and/or right part. As
the car moves closer to the obstacle,
the display will show the single arc
moving closer to the car and the acoustic
warning will increase as the objects gets
close to the car.
