ParkSense Active Park Assist
System
The ParkSense Active Park Assist system is
intended to assist the driver during parallel and
perpendicular parking maneuvers by identify-
ing a proper parking space, providing audible/
visual instructions, and controlling the steering
wheel. The ParkSense Active Park Assist system
is defined as “semi-automatic” since the driver
maintains control of the accelerator, gear selector
and brakes. Depending on the driver's parking
maneuver selection, the ParkSense Active Park
Assist system is capable of maneuvering a ve-
hicle into a parallel or a perpendicular parking
space on either side (i.e., driver side or passen-
ger side).
NOTE:
• The driver is always responsible for control-
ling the vehicle, responsible for any sur-
rounding objects, and must intervene as
required.
• The system is provided to assist the driver
and not to substitute the driver.
• During a semi-automatic maneuver, if the
driver touches the steering wheel after being
instructed to remove their hands from the
steering wheel, the system will cancel, and
the driver will be required to manually com-
plete the parking maneuver.
• The system may not work in all conditions
(e.g. environmental conditions such as
heavy rain, snow, etc., or if searching for a
parking space that has surfaces that will
absorb the ultrasonic sensor waves).
• New vehicles from the dealership must have
at least 30 miles (48 km) accumulated be-
fore the ParkSense Active Park Assist system
is fully calibrated and performs accurately.
This is due to the system’s dynamic vehicle
calibration to improve the performance of
the feature. The system will also continu-
ously perform the dynamic vehicle calibra-
tion to account for differences such as over
or under inflated tires and new tires.
