PARKSENSE® REAR PARK ASSIST
If an object is detected behind the rear bumper while the vehicle is in REVERSE, a
warning will display in the instrument cluster and a tone will sound, (closer the object the
faster the tone) that changes speed depending on the distance of the object from the
bumper, will sound.
When the Instrument Cluster reads either “Clean Sensor” or “Blinded”, clean off the
bumper sensors to see if the condition is corrected.

BLIND SPOT MONITORING WITH REAR CROSS PATH
The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system uses two radar-based sensors, located inside the
rear bumper fascia, to detect Highway licensable vehicles (automobiles, trucks, motor-
cycles etc.) that enter the blind spot zones from the rear/front/side of the vehicle.
The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system warning light, located in the outside mirrors, will
illuminate if a vehicle moves into a blind spot zone.
The BSM system can also be configured to sound an audible (chime) alert and mute the
radio to notify you of objects that have entered the detection zones.
Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.
