detect obstacles, in the horizontal direction, from ap-
proximately 12 inches (30 cm) up to 55 inches (140 cm)
from the center of the rear fascia/bumper and up to 24
inches (60 cm) from the corners of the rear fascia/
bumper, depending on the location, type and orienta-
tion of the obstacle.
If several obstacles are detected, the Rear Park Assist
system indicates the nearest obstacle.
The minimum height of a detectable obstacle corre-
sponds to the maximum height of an obstacle that
would clear the underside of the vehicle during the
parking maneuver.Rear Park Assist Audible Alerts
If an obstacle is behind the vehicle when the transmis-
sion is placed into REVERSE, an audible alert is acti-
vated.
The tones emitted by the loudspeaker inform the driver
that the vehicle is approaching an obstacle. The pauses
between the tones are directly proportional to the
distance from the obstacle. Pulses emitted in quick
succession indicate the presence of a very close obstacle.
A continuous tone indicates that the obstacle is less than
12 inches (30 cm) away.
Audible And Visual Signals Supplied By The Rear Park Assist System
SIGNALMEANING INDICATION
Obstacle Distance An obstacle is present
within the sensors’ field of view Audible signal
(dashboard loudspeaker)
• Sound pulses emitted at a rate that increases as
the distance decreases.
• Emits continuous tone at 12 inches (30 cm).
• Adjustable volume level. (Refer to “Instrument
Cluster Display” in “Understanding Your Instru-
ment Panel” for further information).

SIGNALMEANING INDICATION
Failure Sensor or System failures Visual Signal(instrument panel)
• Icon appears on display.
• Message is displayed on the Instrument Cluster
Display (where provided).
While audible signals are emitted, the audio system is
not muted.
The audible signal is turned off immediately if the
distance increases. The tone cycle remains constant if
the distance measured by the inner sensors is constant.
If this condition occurs for the external sensors, the
signal is turned off after 3 seconds (stopping warnings
during maneuvers parallel to walls).
Failure Indications
A malfunction of the Rear Park Assist sensors or system
is indicated, during REVERSE gear engagement, by the
instrument panel warning icon and message appearing
on the instrument cluster display. The warning icon is illuminated and a mes-
sage appears on the instrument cluster dis-
play (if equipped). Refer to Instrument Clus-
ter Display in “Understanding Your
Instrument Panel” for further information.
The sensors and wiring are tested continuously when the
ignition is in the ON/RUN position. Failures are indi-
cated immediately if they occur when the system is ON.
Even if the system is able to identify that a specific sensor
is in failure condition, the instrument cluster display shall
indicate that the Rear Park Assist system is unavailable,
without reference to the sensor in failure condition. If even
a single sensor fails, the entire system must be disabled.
The system is turned off automatically.
Cleaning The Rear Park Assist System
Clean the Rear Park Assist sensors with water, car wash
soap and a soft cloth. Do not use rough or hard cloths.
In washing stations, clean sensors quickly keeping the
vapor jet/high pressure washing nozzles at least 4
inches (10 cm) from the sensors. Do not scratch or poke
the sensors. Otherwise, you could damage the sensors.
