Parking Aids 207 Front Sensing System The front sensors are active when the gearshift is in any position other than P (Park) or N (Neutral) and the vehicle speed is below 8 mph (13 km/h). A. Coverage area of up to 27 inches (70 centimeters) from the front of the vehicle and about 6-9 inches (15-23 centimeters) to the side of the front end of the vehicle. Refer A to the reverse sensing section for details on coverage area. The system sounds an audible warning when obstacles are near either bumper in the following manner: • Objects detected by the front sensors are indicated by a high-pitched tone from the front of the vehicle. • Objects detected by the rear sensors are indicated by a lower pitched tone from the rear of the vehicle. • The sensing system reports the obstacle which is closest to the front or rear of the vehicle. For example, if an obstacle is 12 inches (30 centimeters) from the front of the vehicle and, at the same time, an obstacle is only 6 inches (15 centimeters) from the rear of the vehicle, the lower pitched tone sounds. • An alternating warning sounds from the front and rear if there are objects at both bumpers that are closer than 10 inches (25 centimeters). For specific information on the reverse sensing portion of the system, refer to that section. 2014 Expedition (exd) Owners Guide gf, 1st Printing, June 2013 USA (fus)
