(Continued)
PARK ASSIST", OR "SERVICE PARK ASSIST
SYSTEM" messages for as long as the vehicle is
in REVERSE. Under this condition, ParkSense
will not operate.
If “CLEAN PARK ASSIST” appears in the
in
strument cluster display, make sure the outer
surface and the underside of the rear fascia/
bumper are clean and clear of snow, ice, mud,
dirt or other obstruction. Then, cycle the
ignition. If the message continues to appear,
see an authorized dealer.
If “SERVICE PARK ASSIST” or “SERVICE PARK
A S
SIST SYSTEM” appears in the instrument
cluster display, see an authorized dealer.
CLEANING THE PARKSENSE SYSTEM
Clean the ParkSense sensors with water, car
wash soap and a soft cloth. Do not use rough or
hard cloths. Do not scratch or poke the sensors.
Otherwise, you could damage the sensors.
PARKSENSE SYSTEM USAGE
P
RECAUTIONS
NOTE:
Ensure that the rear bumper is free of snow, ice,
mud, dirt and debris to keep the ParkSense
system operating properly.
Jackhammers, large trucks, and other vibrations
could affect the performance of ParkSense.
When you turn ParkSense off, the instrument
cluster display will read “PARK ASSIST
SYSTEM OFF.” Furthermore, once you turn
ParkSense off, it remains off until you turn it
on again, even if you cycle the ignition key.
When you move the gear selector to the
REVERSE position and ParkSense is turned
off, the instrument cluster display will show
the “PARK ASSIST SYSTEM OFF” message for
as long as the vehicle is in REVERSE.
Clean the ParkSense sensors regularly,
taking care not to scratch or damage them.
The sensors must not be covered with ice,
snow, slush, mud, dirt or debris. Failure to do
so can result in the system not working prop -erly. The ParkSense system might not detect
a
n
obstacle behind the fascia/bumper, or it
could provide a false indication that an
obstacle is behind the fascia/bumper.
Ensure the ParkSense system is off if objects
such as bicycle carriers, trailer hitches, etc.,
are placed within 12 inches (30 cm) from the
r e
ar fascia/bumper. Failure to do so can
result in the system misinterpreting a close
object as a sensor problem, causing the
“SERVICE PARK ASSIST SYSTEM” message
to appear in the instrument cluster display.
WARNING!
Drivers must be careful when backing up
even when using ParkSense. Always check
carefully behind your vehicle, look behind
you, and be sure to check for pedestrians,
animals, other vehicles, obstructions, and
blind spots before backing up. You are
responsible for safety and must continue to
pay attention to your surroundings. Failure to
do so can result in serious injury or death.

STARTING AND OPERATING 175

PARKVIEW REAR BACK UP CAMERA
Your vehicle is equipped with the ParkView Rear
Back Up Camera that allows you to see an
on-screen image of the rear surroundings of
your vehicle whenever the gear selector is put
into REVERSE. The image will be displayed in
the touchscreen display along with a caution
note to “Check Entire Surroundings” across the
top of the screen. After five seconds this note
will disappear. The ParkView camera is located
on the rear of the vehicle above the rear license
plate.
When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE, the
r e
ar camera mode is exited and the last
selected touchscreen appears again.
The camera image is also available in the
r e
arview mirror if the touchscreen display is
unavailable. If your vehicle is equipped with the Camera
D
e
lay feature and it is turned on, the rear
camera image will be displayed for up to
10 seconds when the vehicle is shifted out of
R E
VERSE unless the forward vehicle speed
exceeds 8 mph (13 km/h), the transmission is
s h
ifted into PARK, the “X” button on the camera
display screen is pressed, or the vehicle's
ignition is placed in the OFF position.
Static grid lines will illustrate the width of the
v e
hicle. These lines will show separate zones
that will help indicate the distance to the rear of
the vehicle.
NOTE:
The ParkView Rear Back Up Camera has
p r
ogrammable modes of operation that may be
selected through the Uconnect system. Refer to
“Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” for further
information.
Different colored zones indicate the distance to
t h
e rear of the vehicle.
Before using ParkSense, it is strongly
recommended that the ball mount and
hitch ball assembly is disconnected from
the vehicle when the vehicle is not used for
towing. Failure to do so can result in injury
or damage to vehicles or obstacles
because the hitch ball will be much closer
to the obstacle than the rear fascia when
the loudspeaker sounds the continuous
tone. Also, the sensors could detect the ball
mount and hitch ball assembly, depending
on its size and shape, giving a false indica -
tion that an obstacle is behind the vehicle.
CAUTION!
ParkSense is only a parking aid and it is
unable to recognize every obstacle,
including small obstacles. Parking curbs
might be temporarily detected or not
detected at all. Obstacles located above or
below the sensors will not be detected
when they are in close proximity.
WARNING! (Continued)
The vehicle must be driven slowly when
using ParkSense in order to be able to stop
in time when an obstacle is detected. It is
recommended that the driver looks over
his/her shoulder when using ParkSense.
CAUTION! (Continued)

or vice versa. Failure to use proper fuses
may result in serious personal injury, fire
and/or property damage.
Before replacing a fuse, make sure that the
ignition is off and that all the other services
are switched off and/or disengaged.
If the replaced fuse blows again, contact an
authorized dealer.

TOWING A DISABLED VEHICLE
This section describes procedures for towing a disabled vehicle using a commercial towing service.
Proper towing or lifting equipment is required to
pr
event damage to your vehicle. Use only tow
bars and other equipment designed for this
purpose, following equipment manufacturer’s
instructions. Use of safety chains is mandatory.
Attach a tow bar or other towing device to main
structural members of the vehicle, not to
bumpers or associated brackets. State and
local laws regarding vehicles under tow must be
observed. If you must use the accessories (wipers,
de
frosters, etc.) while being towed, the ignition
must be in the ON/RUN mode, not the ACC
mode.
If the key fob is unavailable, or the vehicle's
b a
ttery is discharged, refer to “Gear Selector
Override” in this section for instructions on
shifting the transmission out of PARK for
towing.

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE 225
Refrigerant Recovery And Recycling —
R-1234yf
R-1234yf Air Conditioning Refrigerant is a
hydrofluoroolefin (HFO) that is endorsed by
the Environmental Protection Agency and
is an ozone-friendly substance with a low
g l
obal-warming potential. The manufacturer
recommends that air conditioning service be

ACCESSORY DRIVE BELT INSPECTION
When inspecting accessory drive belts, small
cracks that run across the ribbed surface of the
belt from rib to rib, are considered normal.
These are not a reason to replace the belt.
However, cracks running along a rib (not across)
are not normal. Any belt with cracks running
along a rib must be replaced. Also have the belt
replaced if it has excessive wear, frayed cords
or severe glazing.
Accessory Belt (Serpentine Belt)
Conditions that would require replacement:
Rib chunking (one or more ribs has sepa -
rated from belt body)
Rib or belt wear
Longitudinal belt cracking (cracks between
two ribs)
Belt slips
“Groove jumping" (belt does not maintain
correct position on pulley)
Belt broken (Identify and correct problem
before new belt is installed)
Noise (objectionable squeal, squeak, or
rumble is heard or felt while drive belt is in
operation)
CAUTION!
Do not use chemical flushes in your air
conditioning system as the chemicals can
damage your air conditioning components.
Such damage is not covered by the New
Vehicle Limited Warranty.WARNING!
Do not attempt to inspect an accessory
drive belt with vehicle running.
When working near the radiator cooling fan,
disconnect the fan motor lead. The fan is
temperature controlled and can start at any
time regardless of ignition mode. You could
be injured by the moving fan blades.
You can be badly injured working on or
around a motor vehicle. Only do service
work for which you have the knowledge and
the proper equipment. If you have any
doubt about your ability to perform a
service job, take your vehicle to a compe -
tent mechanic.
