UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 179 • 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 ParkSense௡ system not working properly. The ParkSense௡ system might not detect an obstacle behind the fascia/bumper, or it could provide a false indication that an obstacle is behind the fascia/bumper. • Objects must not be within 12 in (30 cm) from the rear fascia/bumper while driving the vehicle. Failure to do so can result in the system misinterpreting a close object as a sensor problem, causing the "SERVICE PARK ASSIST SYSTEM" message to be displayed in the instrument cluster. CAUTION! • ParkSense௡ 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 ParkSense௡ sensors will not be detected when they are in close proximity. • The vehicle must be driven slowly when using ParkSense௡ to be able to stop in time when the obstacle is detected. It is recommended that the driver looks over his/her shoulder when using ParkSense௡. 3
