The rear park assist is automatically
enabled when the gear selector is
placed in R (Reverse) and the
ignition is ON. A park assist control
allows the driver to disable the
system only when the ignition is
ON, and the gear selector is in R
(Reverse).
The OFF indicator remains
illuminated when the system is
disabled. Press the control to
disable or enable the system. Once disabled, the system will remain
disabled until the control is pressed or until the next ignition cycle.
The indicator will remain illuminated to indicate a failure of the rear park
assist.
Always keep the sensors (located on the rear bumper/fascia) free
from snow, ice and large accumulations of dirt (do not clean the
sensors with sharp objects). These elements may cause the
system to operate inaccurately.
If the vehicle sustains damage to the rear bumper/fascia, leaving
it misaligned or bent, the sensing zone may be altered causing
inaccurate measurement of obstacles or false alarms.
DRIVING THROUGH WATER
If driving through deep or standing water is unavoidable, proceed very
slowly especially when the depth is not known. Never drive through
water that is higher than the bottom of the hubs (for trucks) or the
bottom of the wheel rims (for cars). When driving through water,
traction or brake capability may be limited. Also, water may enter your
engine’s air intake and severely damage your engine or your vehicle may
stall.Driving through deep water where the transmission vent
tube is submerged may allow water into the transmission and
cause internal transmission damage.
Once through the water, always dry the brakes by moving your
vehicle slowly while applying light pressure on the brake pedal.
Wet brakes do not stop the vehicle as quickly as dry brakes.
