Park Assist limitations
The Park Assist system has certain limitations.
NOTE
A trailer hitch whose wiring is integrated with the vehicle's electrical system will be includedin the measurement of the available spacebehind the vehicle.
NOTE
• The system will not detect high objects, such as a loading dock, etc.
• Objects such as chains, thin shiny polesor low objects may temporarily not bedetected by the system. This may resultin the pulsing tone unexpectedly stoppinginstead of changing to a constant tone asthe vehicle approaches the object. Insuch cases, use caution when backing upor stop the vehicle to help avoid damage.
• In certain circumstances, the park assistsystem may give unexpected warning sig-nals that can be caused by externalsound sources that use the same ultra-sound frequencies as the system. Thismay include such things as the horns ofother vehicles, wet tires on asphalt, pneu-matic brakes, motorcycle exhaust pipes,etc. This does not indicate a fault in thesystem.
Cleaning the sensors
Location of the Park Assist sensors

Park Assist Camera (PAC) * guiding
lines and fields
The Park Assist Camera system uses guiding and lines and fields to indicate the vehicle'sposition in relation to its immediate surround-ings.
Guiding lines
Sample guidelines
The lines on the screen are projected as if they were a path on the ground around the vehicleand are directly affected by the way in which thesteering wheel is turned. This enables the driverto see path the vehicle will take, even if he/sheturns the steering wheel. These lines also indicate the outermost limits that any object (door mirrors, corners of the body, atrailer hitch, etc.) extends out from the vehicle,even when it turns.
NOTE
When backing up with a trailer, the guiding lines show the path that the vehicle will take,
not the trailer.
WARNING
Keep in mind that when the rear camera has been selected, the image on the screen onlyshows the area behind the vehicle. The drivermust always watch for people, animals, othervehicles, etc., near the sides or the front of thevehicle when turning while backing up. The opposite is true when the front camera is selected. Please note that the guiding lines show the shortest path. Be sure that the vehicle
