Parking Aids

The system detects an available parallel parking space and automatically steers your vehicle (hands-free)while you control the accelerator, transmission and brakes. The systemvisually and audibly guides you to park your vehicle. If your are uncomfortable with the proximity to any vehicle or object, youmay choose to override the systemby grabbing the steering wheel or pushing the active park assist button. The systemmay not operate correctly in any of the following conditions: • You use a spare tire or a tire significantly worn more than the other tires. • One or more tires are improperly inflated. • You try to park on a tight curve. • Something passes between the front bumper and the parking space. For example, a pedestrian or cyclist. • The edge of the neighboring parking vehicle is high off the ground. For example, a bus, tow truck or flatbed truck. • The weather conditions are poor. For example, during heavy rain, snow or fog. Note: Keep the sensors, located on the fascia, free from now, ice and large accumulations of dirt. Covered sensors can affect the systems accuracy. Do not clean the sensors with sharp objects. Note: The sensors may not detect objects with surfaces that absorb ultrasonic waves or cause ultrasonic interference. For example, motorcycle exhaust, truck air brakes or horns. Note: Following a change in tire size, the systemmust recalibrate and operationmay be impaired for a short time.

Coverage area of up to 6 ft (1.8 m) from the rear bumper. There may be decreased coverage area at the outer corners of the bumper. The system detects certain objects while the transmission is in reverse (R) : • Your vehicle is moving toward a stationary object at a speed of 3 mph (5 km/h) or less. • Your vehicle is not moving, but a moving object is approaching the rear of your vehicle at a speed of 3 mph (5 km/h) or less. • Your vehicle is moving at a speed of less than 3mph (5 km/h) andamoving object is approaching the rear of your vehicle at a speed of less than 3 mph (5 km/h).
