ENABLING AND DISABLING PARK ASSIST
Park Assist can be enabled and disabled using the
Uconnect® System. The available choices are: Off,
Sound Only, or Sound and Display. Refer to
“Uconnect® Settings” for further information.
When the Park Assist button is pushed to disable the
system, the EVIC will display the “PARK ASSIST SYS-
TEM OFF” message for approximately five seconds.
Refer to “Electronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC)” for further information. When the shift lever is
moved to REVERSE and the system is disabled, the
EVIC will display the “PARK ASSIST SYSTEM OFF”
message for as long as the vehicle is in REVERSE. SERVICE THE REAR PARK ASSIST SYSTEM
During vehicle start up, when the Rear Park Assist
system has detected a fault condition, the Electronic
Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) will actuate a single
chime, once per ignition cycle, and it will display the
“CLEAN PARK ASSIST”, “SERVICE PARK ASSIST” or
“SERVICE PARK ASSIST SYSTEM” message. Refer to
“Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)” for
further information. When the shift lever is moved to
REVERSE and the system has detected a fault condi-
tion, the EVIC will display the “CLEAN PARK ASSIST”,
“SERVICE PARK ASSIST” or “SERVICE PARK ASSIST
SYSTEM” message for as long as the vehicle is in
REVERSE. Under this condition, Park Assist will not
operate.

If “CLEAN PARK ASSIST” appears in the Electronic
Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) make sure the
outer surface and the underside of the rear fascia/
bumper is clean and clear of snow, ice, mud, dirt or
other obstruction and then cycle the ignition. If the
message continues to appear see an authorized dealer.
If “SERVICE PARK ASSIST” or “SERVICE PARK ASSIST
SYSTEM” appears in the EVIC, see your authorized
dealer.
CLEANING THE PARK ASSIST SYSTEM
Clean the sensors with water, car wash soap and a soft
cloth. Do not use rough or hard cloths. Do not scratch
or poke the sensors. Otherwise, you could damage the
sensors.
PARK ASSIST SYSTEM USAGE
PRECAUTIONS
NOTE:
• Ensure that the rear bumper is free of snow, ice,mud, dirt and debris to keep the Park Assist system
operating properly.
• Jackhammers, large trucks, and other vibrations could affect the performance of Park Assist. • When you turn Park Assist off, the EVIC will display
“PARK ASSIST SYSTEM OFF.” Furthermore, once
you turn Park Assist off, it remains off until you turn
it on again, even if you cycle the ignition key.
• When you move the shift lever to the REVERSE position and Park Assist is turned off, the EVIC will
display the “PARK ASSIST SYSTEM OFF” message
for as long as the vehicle is in REVERSE.
• Clean the Park Assist 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 system not
working properly. The Park Assist 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.
• Ensure that the Park Assist system is turned OFF if objects such as bicycle carriers, trailer hitches, etc.,
are placed within 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” mes-
sage to be displayed in the EVIC.

•Park Assist is only a parking aid and it is
unable to recognize every obstacle, in-
cluding small obstacles. Parking curbs
might be temporarily detected or not detected at
all. Obstacles located above or below the sensors
will not be detected when they are in close prox-
imity.
• The vehicle must be driven slowly when using
Park Assist in order to be able to stop in time when
an obstacle is detected. It is recommended that
the driver looks over his/her shoulder when using
Park Assist .
WARNING!
• Drivers must be careful when backing
up e

ven when using Park Assist . Always
check carefully behind your vehicle, look behind
you, and be sure to check for pedestrians, ani-
mals, other vehicles, obstructions, and blind spots
before backing up.You are responsible for safety
and must continue to pay attention to your sur-
roundings. Failure to do so can result in serious
injury or death.
(Continued)
WARNING! (Continued)
• Before using Park Assist , it is strongly recom-
mended that the ball mount and hitch ball as-
sembly is disconnected from the vehicle when the
vehicle is not used for towing. Failure to do so can
result in injury or damage to vehicles or obstacles
because the hitch ball will be much closer to the
obstacle than the rear fascia when the loud-
speaker sounds the continuous tone. Also, the
sensors could detect the ball mount and hitch ball
assembly, depending on its size and shape, giving
a false indication that an obstacle is behind the
vehicle.

PARKVIEW® REAR BACK UP
CAMERA (for versions/markets,
where provided)
Your vehicle may be equipped with the ParkView®
Rear Back Up Camera that allows you to see an
on-screen image of the rear surroundings of your
vehicle whenever the shift lever is put into REVERSE.
The ParkView® camera is located on the rear of the
vehicle above the rear License plate. The image will be
displayed in the touchscreen display along with a cau-
tion note to “check entire surroundings” across the top
of the screen. After five seconds this note will disap-
pear.
When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE, the rear
camera mode is exited and the last selected touch-
screen appears again.
If your vehicle is equipped with the Camera Delay
feature and it is turned ON, the rear camera image will
be displayed for up to 10 seconds when the vehicle is
shifted out of REVERSE unless the forward vehiclespeed exceeds 13 km/h, the transmission is shifted into
"PARK" or the vehicle's ignition is cycled to the OFF
position.
Static grid lines will illustrate the width of the vehicle
while a dashed center-line will indicate the center of
the vehicle to assist with parking or aligning to a
hitch/receiver. The static grid lines will show separate
zones that will help indicate the distance to the rear of
the vehicle.
NOTE:
The ParkView® Rear Back Up Camera has
programmable modes of operation that may be se-
lected through the Uconnect® System. Refer to
“Uconnect® Settings” in “Knowing Your Vehicle” for
further information.
Different colored zones indicate the distance to the
rear of the vehicle.
The following table shows the approximate distances
for each zone:
Zone Distance to the rear of the vehicle
Red 0-30cm
Yellow 30 cm-1m
Green 1 m or greater
