PARKING AID PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: To help avoid personalinjury, always use caution when inreverse (R) and when using the sensingsystem.
WARNING: The system may notdetect objects with surfaces that absorbreflection. Always drive with due careand attention. Failure to take care mayresult in a crash.
WARNING: Traffic control systems,fluorescent lamps, inclement weather,air brakes, external motors and fans mayaffect the correct operation of thesensing system. This may cause reducedperformance or false alerts.
WARNING: The system may notdetect small or moving objects,particularly those close to the ground.
WARNING: The parking aid systemcan only assist you to detect objectswhen your vehicle is moving at parkingspeeds. To help avoid personal injury youmust take care when using the parkingaid system.
WARNING: The system may notfunction if the sensor is blocked.
WARNING: In cold and severeweather conditions the system may notfunction. Rain, snow and spray can alllimit sensor performance.
WARNING: If damage occurs in theimmediate area surrounding the sensor,have your vehicle checked as soon aspossible.
Note:If your vehicle sustains damageleaving the sensors misaligned, this willcause inaccurate measurements or falsealerts.
When you connect a trailer to your vehicle,the rear parking aid detects the trailer andprovides an alert. Disable the parking aidwhen you connect a trailer to prevent thealert.
Note:Connected trailers might be detectedby the vehicle and parking aid turns offautomatically in those instances.
Note:Certain add-on devices installedaround the bumper or fascia may createfalse alerts, for example, large trailerhitches, bike or surfboard racks, license platebrackets, bumper covers or any other devicethat could block the normal detection zoneof the parking aid system. Aftermarket sparetires or spare tire covers mounted to the reartailgate could cause false alerts from thepark aid system. Remove the add-on deviceto prevent false alerts.
Note: Keep the sensors free from snow, iceand large accumulations of dirt. If thesensors are covered, the system's accuracycan be affected.
Do not clean the sensors with sharpobjects.
Note: When using a programmed MyKey,you cannot switch the parking aids off. SeeMyKey™ (page 84).

REAR PARKING AID
WHAT IS THE REAR PARKING AID
Reverse Sensing System
Rear parking sensors detect objects behindyour vehicle when in reverse (R).
REAR PARKING AID LIMITATIONS
There is a decreased coverage area at theouter corners.
When using a programmed MyKey, youcannot switch the rear parking aid off.
The rear parking aid sensors are activewhen your vehicle is in reverse (R) and thevehicle speed is less than 5 mph (8 km/h).
The sensor coverage area is up to 71 in(180 cm) from the rear bumper.
The rear parking aid detects large objectswhen you shift into reverse (R) and any ofthe following occur:
•Your vehicle is moving backward at alow speed.
•Your vehicle is stationary but an objectis approaching the rear of your vehicleat a low speed.
•Your vehicle is moving backward at alow speed and an object is movingtowards your vehicle, for exampleanother vehicle at a low speed.
The system shall provide no audiblewarning for the object behind the vehiclewhen in neutral (N) gear.
LOCATING THE REAR PARKINGAID SENSORS
The rear parking aid sensors are in the rearbumper.
REAR PARKING AID AUDIBLEWARNINGS
A warning tone sounds when your vehicleapproaches an object. As your vehiclemoves closer to an object, the rate of thetone increases. The warning tonecontinuously sounds when an object is 12 in(30 cm) or less from the rear bumper.
If your vehicle remains stationary for a fewseconds, the audible warning turns off. Ifyour vehicle moves backward the tonesounds again.
Note:When the parking aid system soundsa tone, the audio system could reduce theset volume.

FRONT PARKING AIDLIMITATIONS
The front parking aid sensors are activewhen your vehicle is in any position otherthan park (P) and the vehicle speed is lessthan 5 mph (8 km/h).
The sensor coverage area is up to 28 in(70 cm) from the bumper.
If your vehicle is in reverse (R), the frontparking aid detects objects when yourvehicle is moving at a low speed or anobject is moving toward your vehicle andprovides an audible warning, for exampleanother vehicle at a low speed. If yourvehicle remains stationary for a fewseconds, the audible warning turns off.Visual indication is always active in reverse(R).
If your vehicle is in any forward gear, thefront parking aid provides audible warningsand visual indication when your vehicle ismoving at a speed of 5 mph (8 km/h) orbelow and the system detects an objectwithin the detection zone. If your vehicleremains stationary for a few seconds, thevisual indication and audible warning turnsoff.
If your vehicle is in neutral (N), the frontand rear sensors provide visual indicationonly when your vehicle is moving below aspeed of 5 mph (8 km/h) and obstaclesare detected inside the detection areas.Once your vehicle stops, the visualindication and audible warning stops aftera few seconds.
LOCATING THE FRONT PARKINGAID SENSORS
The front parking aid sensors are in thefront bumper.
FRONT PARKING AID AUDIBLEWARNINGS
A warning tone sounds when there is anobject within 28 in (70 cm) from the frontbumper. As your vehicle moves closer toan object, the rate of the tone increases.

WHAT IS CROSS TRAFFIC
ALERT
The system alerts you of vehiclesapproaching from the sides behind yourvehicle when you shift into reverse (R).
HOW DOES CROSS TRAFFIC
ALERT WORK
Cross traffic alert detects vehicles thatapproach at a speed between 4–37 mph(6–60 km/h). Coverage decreases whenthe sensors are partially, mostly or fullyobstructed.
The sensor on the left-hand side is onlypartially obstructed and zone coverage onthe right-hand side is maximized.
Zone coverage also decreases whenparking at narrow angles. The sensor onthe left-hand side is mostly obstructed andzone coverage on that side is severelyreduced.
Note: Slowly reversing helps increase thecoverage area and effectiveness.
CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT
