Automatic Parking
Assist (APA)
If equipped, under certain conditions
Enhanced Automatic Parking Assist
(APA) can use sensors based on sonar
technology along the vehicle’s front,
rear and sides to detect a parking spot
and automatically park the vehicle.The vehicle will automatically
maneuver into a detected spot moving
at or near idle speed. It does this by
automatically steering, braking,
accelerating, and gear shifting. The
driver must always be prepared to
apply braking if necessary. A display
and beeps help to guide the parking
maneuvers.
{Warning
APA may not always detect objects
in the parking space, objects that
are not rigid (e.g. shrubs and
chain-link fences), objects below the
bumper, objects high off the ground
(e.g. flatbed trucks), hanging
objects, objects below ground level
(e.g. large potholes), or moving
objects (e.g. pedestrians, cyclists,
vehicles). Always verify that the
parking space is appropriate for
parking a vehicle. APA may not
respond to changes in the parking
space, such as movement of an
adjacent vehicle, or a person or
object entering the parking space.
APA does not detect or avoid traffic
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
that is behind or alongside of the
vehicle. Always be prepared to stop
the vehicle during the parking
maneuver.
How to Activate Automatic Parking
To activate APA, press
Oon the
Home Page of the infotainment
display for the system to begin
searching for a parking space while
driving forward at no greater than
30 km/h (18 mph). By default, APA
searches for parallel parking spaces to
the right of the vehicle up to the
sensors ’range of 1.5 m (5 ft). To
search for a parking space to the left,
turn on the left turn signal or,
if available, change the side selection
in the infotainment display. To switch
the parking mode between parallel
and perpendicular press and hold
O
while searching for a valid parking
spot or, if available, change the
parking mode in the infotainment
display.

and/or Automatic Emergency Braking
(AEB) can help to avoid a crash or
reduce crash damage.
Forward Collision Alert
(FCA) System
The FCA system may help to avoid or
reduce the harm caused by front-end
crashes. When approaching a vehicle
ahead too quickly, FCA provides a red
flashing alert on the windshield and
rapidly beeps or pulses the driver seat.
FCA also lights an amber visual alert
if following another vehicle much too
closely. FCA detects vehicles within a distance
of approximately 60 m (197 ft) and
operates at speeds above 8 km/h
(5 mph). If the vehicle has Adaptive
Cruise Control (ACC), it can detect
vehicles to distances of approximately
110 m (360 ft) and operates at all
speeds. See
Adaptive Cruise Control
(Advanced) 0275.
{Warning
FCA is a warning system and does
not apply the brakes. When
approaching a slower-moving or
stopped vehicle ahead too rapidly,
or when following a vehicle too
closely, FCA may not provide a
warning with enough time to help
avoid a crash. It also may not
provide any warning at all. FCA
does not warn of pedestrians,
animals, signs, guardrails, bridges,
construction barrels, or other
objects. Be ready to take action and
apply the brakes. See Defensive
Driving 0232.
