The system may provide obstacle distanceindication through the information display.
As the distance to the obstacle decreases,the indicator blocks illuminate and movetoward the vehicle icon. If there is noobstacle detected, the distance indicatorblocks will not be present.
When you shift to reverse (R), the sidesensing system provides audible and visualdistance indication when your vehicle ismoving and obstacles are detected within12 in (30 cm), or when obstacles aredetected within 12–24 in (30–60 cm) andare inside the driving path of your vehicle.When you stop your vehicle the audiblewarning stops after two seconds.
Note:Visual distance indication remainson when the transmission is in reverse (R).
When you shift to drive (D) or any otherforward gear, for example, low (L), sport(S) or any forward gear in manualtransmission, the side sensing systemprovides audible and visual distanceindication when your vehicle is moving at7 mph (12 km/h) or below and obstacles
are detected within 12 in (30 cm), or whenobstacles are detected within 12–24 in(30–60 cm) and are inside the driving pathof your vehicle. When you stop your vehiclethe audible warning stops after twoseconds and the visual distance indicationstops after four seconds.
Note:If the obstacle remains within12–24 in (30–60 cm) visual distanceindication remains on.
When you shift to neutral (N), the sidesensing system only provides visualdistance indication when your vehicle ismoving at 7 mph (12 km/h) or below, forexample when moving on a slope, andobstacles are detected within 12 in(30 cm). When you stop your vehicle thevisual distance indication stops after fourseconds.
If the side sensing system is not available,the side distance indicator blocks will notbe present.
The side sensing system is not availableunder the following condition:
•If you switch the traction controlsystem off.
The side sensing system may not availableuntil you have driven approximately thelength of your vehicle in order for thesystem to reinitialize if:
•You switch the ignition on, off and backon.
•Your vehicle remains stationary for overtwo minutes.
•The anti-lock brake system isactivated.
•The traction control system isactivated.

The sensors may not detect objectsin heavy rain or other conditions thatcause disruptive reflections.
The system scans the area adjacent toboth sides of your vehicle to locate asuitable parking space.
The system informs you when it locates asuitable parking space. When you stopyour vehicle, the system takes control ofthe steering to guide your vehicle into theparking space.
Park Out Assist automatically steers yourvehicle out of a parallel parking space(hands-free) while you control theaccelerator, gearshift and brakes. Thesystem visually and audibly instructs youto enter traffic.
The system may not correctly operate inany of the following conditions:
•a spare tire or a significantly worn tiremore than the other tires is used
•you use a tire size not recommendedby us
•you try to park on a tight curve
•if the edge of the neighboring parkedvehicle is high off the ground (forexample, a bus, tow truck or flatbedtruck)
•the weather conditions are poor (heavyrain, snow, fog, etc).
Note:Keep the sensors, located on thebumper or fascia, free from snow, ice andlarge accumulations of dirt. Covered sensorscan affect the system's accuracy. Do notclean the sensors with sharp objects.
Do not use the system if:
•You have attached a foreign object(bike rack or trailer) to the front or rearof your vehicle or close to the sensors.
•You have attached an overhangingobject (surfboard) to the roof.
•A foreign object damages or obstructsthe front or rear bumper or sidesensors.
•The correct tire size is not in use on yourvehicle (for example, a mini-spare tire).
Using Active Park Assist - ParallelParking
Press the button located on thecenter console near the gearshiftlever once.
When driving at a speed less than 19 mph(30 km/h) the system automatically scansboth sides of your vehicle for an availableparking space. The system displays amessage and a corresponding graphic toindicate it is searching for a parking space.Use the direction indicator to selectsearching either to the left-hand side orright-hand side of your vehicle.
Note:If you do not make a selection thesystem will default to the passenger's side.

Troubleshooting the System
The system does not look for a space
The traction control system may be off.
The transmission is in reverse (R). Your vehicle must be moving forward to be able todetect a parking space.

The sensors may be covered (for example, snow, ice or dirt buildup). Covered senorscan affect the system's functionality.
There is not enough room in the parking space for your vehicle to safely park.
There is not enough space for the parking maneuver on the opposite side of the parkingspace.
The parking space is farther than 4.9 ft (1.5 m) or closer than 15.7 in (0.4 m) away.
The transmission is in reverse (R). Your vehicle must be moving forward to be able todetect a parking space.
Your vehicle is going faster than 19 mph (30 km/h) for parallel and 22 mph (35 km/h)for perpendicular parking.

WARNINGS
When following a vehicle, yourvehicle does not decelerateautomatically to a stop, nor doesyour vehicle always decelerate quicklyenough to avoid a crash without driverintervention. Always apply the brakes whennecessary. Failing to do so may result in acrash, serious injury or death.
Adaptive cruise control only warnsof vehicles detected by the radarsensor. In some cases there may beno warning or a delayed warning. Youshould always apply the brakes whennecessary. Failing to do so may result in acrash, serious injury or death.
When a vehicle ahead of you enters thesame lane or a slower vehicle is ahead inthe same lane, the vehicle speed adjuststo maintain a preset gap.
The lead vehicle graphic illuminates.
Your vehicle maintains a constant gapbehind the vehicle ahead until:
•The vehicle in front of you acceleratesto a speed above the set speed.
•The vehicle in front of you moves outof your lane or out of view.
•The vehicle speed falls below 12 mph(20 km/h).
•A new gap is set.
The system applies the brakes to slow yourvehicle to maintain a safe gap from thevehicle in front. The maximum brakingwhich the system can apply is limited. Youcan override the system by applying thebrakes.
If the system predicts that its maximumbraking level is insufficient, an audiblewarning sounds and a message appearsin the information display while the systemcontinues to brake.
The system is designed to assist you bywarning you of the risk of a crash with thevehicle in front of you.
