instrument cluster JEEP COMPASS 2023 Workshop Manual

STARTING AND OPERATING139
NOTE:The vehicle needs to be driven approximately one
car length in order for the Side Distance Warning
system to activate.
Operation With A Trailer
The system is automatically deactivated when the
trailer's electric plug is inserted in the vehicle's tow
hook socket. The rear sensors are automatically
reactivated when the trailer's cable plug is
removed.
ParkSense Usage Precautions
Some conditions may influence the performance
of the Side Distance Warning system:
NOTE:
Ensure that the front and rear bumper are free
of snow, ice, mud, dirt and debris to keep the
ParkSense system operating properly.
Construction equipment, large trucks, and
other vibrations could affect the performance
of ParkSense.
When you turn ParkSense off, the message
in the instrument cluster display will read
“PARKSENSE OFF.” Furthermore, once you turn
ParkSense off, it remains off until you turn it on
again, even if you cycle the ignition key.
ParkSense, when on, will reduce the volume of
the radio when it is sounding a tone.
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 properly. The
ParkSense system might not detect an obstacle
behind or in front of the fascia/bumper, or it
could provide a false indication that an obstacle
is behind or in front of the fascia/bumper.
The presence of a tow hook without a trailer may
interfere with the correct operation of the
parking sensors. Before using the ParkSense
system, it is recommended to remove the
removable tow hook ball assembly and any
attachments from the vehicle when it is not
used for towing operations. If you leave the tow
hook fitted when not towing a trailer, the tow
hook could be detected as an obstacle by the
sensors. Contact your authorized dealer to
update the ParkSense system operations.
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.

Before using ParkSense, it is strongly recom -
mended that the ball mount and hitch ball
assembly be disconnected from the vehicle
when the vehicle is not used for towing. Failure
to do so can result in injury or damage to vehi -
cles or obstacles because the hitch ball will be
much closer to the obstacle than the rear
fascia when the vehicle 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 indication that
an obstacle is behind the vehicle.

Driver's door is opened.
Rear liftgate is opened.
Electronic Stability Control/Anti-lock Braking
System intervention.
The ParkSense Active Park Assist system will allow
a maximum number of shifts between DRIVE and
REVERSE. If the maneuver cannot be completed
within the maximum amount of shifts, the system
will cancel and the instrument cluster display will
instruct the driver to complete the maneuver
manually.
The ParkSense Active Park Assist system will only
operate and search for a parking space when the
following conditions are present:
Gear selector is in DRIVE.
Ignition is in the RUN position.
ParkSense Active Park Assist switch is acti -
vated.
Driver's door is closed.
Rear liftgate is closed.
The outer surface and the underside of the front
and rear fascias/bumpers are clean and clear
of snow, ice, mud, dirt or other obstruction.
Vehicle speed is less than 15 mph (25 km/h).
NOTE:If the vehicle is driven above approximately
15 mph (25 km/h), the instrument cluster display
will instruct the driver to slow down. If the vehicle
is driven above approximately 18 mph (30 km/h),
the system will cancel. The driver must then reac -
tivate the system by pushing the ParkSense Active
Park Assist switch.
When pushed, the LED on the ParkSense Active
Park Assist switch will blink momentarily, and then
the LED will turn off if any of the above conditions
are not present.

S
PACE ASSISTANCE OPERATION
When the ParkSense Active Park Assist system
is enabled, the “Active ParkSense Searching -
Press or to Switch Maneuver” message will
appear in the instrument cluster display. You may
select perpendicular, parallel, or parallel park exit.
The arrow buttons on the left side of the steering
wheel can be used to switch parking maneuvers.
Active ParkSense Searching

NOTE:
When searching for a parking space, use the
turn signal indicator to select which side of the
vehicle you want to perform the parking
maneuver. The ParkSense Active Park Assist
system will automatically search for a parking
space on the passenger's side of the vehicle if
the turn signal is not activated.
The driver needs to make sure that the selected
parking space for the maneuver remains free
and clear of any obstructions (e.g. pedestrians,
bicycles, etc.).
The driver is responsible to ensure that the
selected parking space is suitable for the
maneuver and free/clear of anything that may

NOTE:
It is the driver's responsibility to use the brake
and accelerator during the semi-automatic
parking maneuver.
It is the driver's responsibility to use the brake
and stop the vehicle. The driver should check
their surroundings and be prepared to stop the
vehicle either when instructed to, or when driver
intervention is required.
When the system instructs the driver to remove
their hands from the steering wheel, the driver
should check their surroundings and begin to
back up slowly.
The ParkSense Active Park Assist system will
allow a maximum of six shifts between DRIVE
and REVERSE. If the maneuver cannot be
completed within six shifts, the system will
cancel and the instrument cluster display will
instruct the driver to complete the maneuver
manually.
The system will cancel the maneuver if the
vehicle speed exceeds 5 mph (7 km/h) during
active steering guidance into the parking space.
The system will provide a warning to the driver
at 3 mph (5 km/h) that tells them to slow down.
The driver is then responsible for completing the
maneuver if the system is canceled.
If the system is canceled during the maneuver
for any reason, the driver must take control of
the vehicle.
WARNING!
Drivers must be careful when performing
parallel or perpendicular parking maneuvers
even when using the ParkSense Active Park
Assist system. Always check carefully behind
and in front of your vehicle, look behind and in
front of you, and be sure to check for pedes
-
trians, animals, other vehicles, obstructions,
and blind spots before backing up and moving
forward. 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.
Before using the ParkSense Active Park Assist
system, it is strongly recommended that the
ball mount and hitch ball assembly be discon -
nected 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
vehicle 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 indication that an
obstacle is behind the vehicle.
CAUTION!
The ParkSense Active Park Assist system 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!

144STARTING AND OPERATING
EXITING THE PARKING SPACE
NOTE:The function does not work for exiting a perpen -
dicular parking space, but only exiting parallel
parking spaces.
Activation
To activate this function, shift to DRIVE, push the
ParkSense Active Park Assist switch, and then use
the steering wheel arrow buttons to select the
Parallel Park Exit feature. After the selection, the
system activates and instructs the driver through
the instrument cluster display about the
operations that have to be carried out to perform
the maneuver correctly.
Start Of Maneuver
During the maneuver, the system asks the driver to
shift to REVERSE, and operate the turn signal in
the direction you want to exit. Let go of the steering
wheel and use the brake or accelerator pedals while the system handles the steering
automatically for exiting the parking space. If the
driver continues to carry out a voluntary or
involuntary action on the steering wheel during the
exit maneuver (touching or holding the steering
wheel to prevent its movement), the maneuver will
be interrupted.

Shift To Reverse Then Move Backward
Shift To Drive Then Move Forward
End Of Maneuver
The semi-automatic maneuver ends when the
display shows the message of a completed
maneuver. At the end of the maneuver, the system
gives back the vehicle control to the driver.
Important Information
If the sensors undergo impact which alters their
position, the system operation could be greatly
affected.
The sensors reach top performance after the
vehicle has gone about 30 miles (50 km) due to
the dynamic tire circumference calculations
used for parking.
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 properly. The
ParkSense system might not detect an obstacle
behind or in front of the fascia/bumper, or it
could provide a false indication that an obstacle
is behind or in front of the fascia/bumper.
Construction equipment, large trucks, and
other vibrations could affect the performance
of ParkSense.
Sensors may detect a nonexistent obstacle
(echo noise) due to mechanical noises, for
example while washing the vehicle or in the
case of rain, strong wind, and hail.
The vehicle must be driven slowly when using
the ParkSense Active Park Assist system 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 the ParkSense Active Park Assist
system.
CAUTION!

22_MP_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 144

STARTING AND OPERATING145
The sensors may not detect objects of a partic -
ular shape or made from particular materials
(very thin poles, trailer beams, panels, nets,
bushes, anti-parking posts, pavements, rubbish
bins, motor vehicles, etc.). Always take great
care to check that the vehicle and its path are
actually compatible with the parking place iden -
tified by the system.
The use of wheels and tires that are different
size to the original equipment could affect the
operation of the system.
The operation of the rear sensors is automati -
cally deactivated when the trailer's electric plug
is inserted in the vehicle's tow hook socket,
while the front sensors stay active and can
provide acoustic and visual warnings. If this situ -
ation occurs, Active Park Assist will not work.
The rear sensors are automatically reactivated
when the trailer's cable plug is removed.
In "Search in Progress" mode, the system could
incorrectly identify a parking place to carry out
the maneuver (e.g. by a junction, driveways,
roads crossing the direction of travel, etc.).
In the case of parking maneuvers on roads with
inclines, the performance of the system could
be inferior and it may deactivate.
If a parking maneuver is being carried out
between two parked vehicles alongside a curb,
the system may cause the vehicle to drive up
onto the curb.
Some maneuvers at very tight bends might be
impossible to be carried out.
Take great care to ensure that conditions do not
change during the parking maneuver (e.g. if
there are persons and/or animals in the parking
place, moving vehicles, etc.) and intervene
immediately if necessary.

During parking maneuvers, pay attention to vehi -
cles approaching from the opposite direction.
Always abide by the law and road regulations.

NOTE:
Correct system operation is not guaranteed if
snow chains or the compact spare tire are fitted.
The function only informs the driver about the
last appropriate parking place (parallel or
perpendicular) detected by the parking sensors.
Some messages displayed are accompanied by
acoustic warnings.
ACTIVE LANE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM —
IF EQUIPPED
ACTIVE LANE MANAGEMENT OPERATION
The Active Lane Management (ALM) system uses a
forward facing camera to detect lane markings or
road edges and measure vehicle position within
the lane boundaries. It also uses the Blind Spot Monitoring sensors to detect vehicles in adjacent
lanes while the driver is preparing to change lanes.
The system is operational at speeds above 37 mph
(60 km/h) and below 112 mph (180 km/h).
When both lane markings are detected, and the
vehicle drifts out of the lane (no turn signal
applied), the Active Lane Management system
provides a visual warning in the instrument cluster,
as well as a steering assist torque (if configured in
Uconnect Settings), to prompt the driver to remain
within the lane boundaries. If the driver continues
to drift out of the lane, the system provides a
flashing visual warning through the instrument
cluster display as well as a haptic steering wheel
vibration (if configured in Uconnect Settings) when
the vehicle crosses the lane boundary.
The warning will be in the form of a vibration in the
steering wheel, and/or automatic steering
assistance to direct the vehicle back toward the
center of the lane.
When both lane markings are detected, and the
driver uses the turn signal to indicate a lane
change while the system detects another vehicle in
the Blind Spot Monitoring zone on that side of the
vehicle, the Active Lane Management system
provides a warning in the form of steering assist
and/or steering vibration (depending on radio
settings) to guide the vehicle back to the center of
the lane.
4

22_MP_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 145

146STARTING AND OPERATING
Depending on the type of warning selected, the
system will either guide the vehicle back to the
center of the lane, provide a vibration in the
steering wheel, or both.
NOTE:For an event where the Active Lane Management
system is reacting to a target vehicle in the
adjacent lane, the steering vibration will occur as
soon as the vehicle starts to depart the center of its
lane (as opposed to waiting until the lane marker is
crossed), the Blind Spot Monitoring indicator LED
on the mirror will flash, and the steering wheel
torque will be greater than for a normal lane
departure (no vehicle in adjacent lane).
The driver may manually override the steering
assist warning by applying force into the steering
wheel at any time.

When only a single lane marking is detected and the
driver drifts across the lane marking (no turn signal
applied), the Active Lane Management system
provides a visual warning in the instrument cluster,
as well as a steering assist torque (if configured in
Uconnect Settings), to prompt the driver to remain
within the lane boundaries. If the driver continues to
drift out of the lane, the system provides a flashing
visual warning through the instrument cluster
display as well as a haptic steering wheel vibration
(if configured in Uconnect Settings) when the
vehicle crosses the lane boundary.

NOTE:When operating conditions have been met, the
Active Lane Management system will monitor if the
driver’s hands are on the steering wheel and
provides an audible and visual warning to the
driver if removed. The system will cancel if the
driver does not return their hands to the wheel.
