or passenger side of your vehicle.
4. Drive your vehicle approximately 3 ft (1 m)
away from and parallel to the other
parked vehicles when searching for a
parking space.

in front of your vehicle to allow easier access
to your trunk.
Note: When perpendicular parking, the
system aligns the front end of your vehicle
with the lane side of the object next to it.
Note: When perpendicular parking, if the
system detects only one object, it allows
enough distance to open the door on either
side.
Note: You can slow down your vehicle at
any time by pressing the brake pedal.
Note: When parking is complete the vehicle
shifts into park (P).

Active Park Assist Troubleshooting
Possible Cause
Symptom
The system is unable to detect a vehicle, curb or object to park next to or in-between.
The system does not correctly operate.
You may have switched traction control off.
The system does not search for a parking space.
The transmission is in reverse (R). Your vehicle must be moving forward to be able to
detect a parking space.
The sensors may be blocked. For example, snow, ice or large accumulations of dirt.
Blocked sensors can affect how the system functions.
The system does not offer a parking space.
The sensors in the front or rear bumper could be damaged.
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 parking
space.
The parking space is more than 5 ft (1.5 m) or less than 2 ft (0.5 m) away.
The vehicle speed is greater than 22 mph (35 km/h) for parallel parkin\
g or greater than
19 mph (30 km/h)
for perpendicular parking.
You recently disconnected or replaced the battery. After you reconnect the battery you
must drive your vehicle on a straight road for a short period of time.
An irregular curb along the parking space prevents the system from corre\
ctly aligning
your vehicle.
The system does not correctly position your vehicle
in a parking space.
259
Aviator (CTV) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 201902, Third-Printing- Parking Aids

Possible Cause
Symptom
Vehicles or objects bordering the space may not be correctly parked.
Your vehicle stopped too far past the parking space.
The tires may not be correctly installed or maintained. For example, not inflated correctly,
improper size, or of different sizes.
A repair or alteration changes the detection capabilities.
A parked vehicle has a high attachment. For example, a salt sprayer, snowplow or moving
truck bed.
The parking space length or position of parked objects changes after your vehicle passes
the space.
You are using a spare tire or a tire that is significantly worn more than\
the other tires.
The temperature around your vehicle quickly changes. For example, driving from a
heated garage into cold outside temperature, or after leaving a car wash.

REAR VIEW CAMERA
WARNING: The rear view camera
system is a reverse aid supplement device
that still requires the driver to use it in
conjunction with the interior and exterior
mirrors for maximum coverage. WARNING:
Objects that are close to
either corner of the bumper or under the
bumper, might not be seen on the screen
due to the limited coverage of the camera
system. WARNING:
Reverse your vehicle
slowly. Failure to follow this instruction
could result in the loss of control of your
vehicle, personal injury or death. WARNING:
Use caution when the
rear cargo door is ajar. If the rear cargo
door is ajar, the camera will be out of
position and the video image could be
incorrect. All guide lines disappear when
the rear cargo door is ajar. Failure to follow
this instruction could result in personal
injury. WARNING:
Use caution when turning
camera features on or off when the
transmission is not in park (P). Make sure
your vehicle is not moving.
Note: Some vehicles may not come
equipped with guidelines.
The rear view camera system provides a
video image of the area behind your vehicle.
During operation, lines appear in the display
which represent your vehicle ’s path and
proximity to objects behind your vehicle. The camera is on the luggage compartment
door.
Using the Rear View Camera System
The rear view camera system displays what
is behind your vehicle when you place the
transmission in reverse (R).
Note:
The reverse sensing system is not
effective at speeds above
3 mph (5 km/h)
and may not detect certain angular or
moving objects.

Aviator (CTV) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 201902, Third-Printing- Parking AidsE288858

The system uses three types of guides to
help you see what is behind your vehicle:
•
Active guidelines (if equipped): Show the
intended path of your vehicle when
reversing.
• Fixed guidelines: Show the actual path
your vehicle is moving in while reversing
in a straight line. This can be helpful
when backing into a parking space or
aligning your vehicle with another object
behind you.
• Centerline: Helps align the center of your
vehicle with an object (for example, a
trailer).
Note: If the transmission is in reverse (R) and
the luggage compartment door is open, no
rear view camera features display.
Note: When towing, the camera only sees
what you are towing. This might not provide
adequate coverage as it usually provides in
normal operation and some objects might
not be seen. In some vehicles, the guidelines
may disappear when you connect the trailer
tow connector. The camera may not operate correctly under
the following conditions:
•
Nighttime or dark areas if one or both
reverse lamps are not operating.
• Mud, water or debris obstructs the
camera's view. Clean the lens with a soft,
lint-free cloth and non-abrasive cleaner.
You can also use the rear washer to
clean the camera. See Rear Window
Wiper and Washers (page 104).
• The rear of your vehicle is hit or
damaged, causing the camera to become
misaligned.
Camera System Settings
Depending on your vehicle options, the rear
view camera system settings may be in the
following:
• Information display.
See General
Information (page 130).
• Touchscreen.
See Settings (page 498).
Camera Guidelines
Note: Active guidelines are only available
when the transmission is in reverse (R). Active guidelines (If equipped)

This allows you to get a closer view of an
object behind your vehicle. The zoomed
image keeps the bumper in the image to
provide a reference. The zoom is only active
while the transmission is in reverse (R).
Rear Camera Delay
Selectable settings for this feature are ON
and OFF.
The default setting for the rear camera delay
is OFF.
When shifting the transmission out of reverse
(R) and into any gear other than park (P), the
camera image remains in the display until:
•
Your vehicle speed reaches
approximately 5 mph (8 km/h).
• You shift your vehicle into park (P). 360 DEGREE CAMERA
(IF EQUIPPED) WARNING: The 360 degree camera
system still requires the driver to use it in
conjunction with looking out of the
windows, and checking the interior and
exterior mirrors for maximum coverage. WARNING:
Objects that are close to
either corner of the bumper or under the
bumper, might not be seen on the screen
due to the limited coverage of the camera
system. WARNING:
Use caution when turning
camera features on or off when the
transmission is not in park (P). Make sure
your vehicle is not moving. WARNING:
You are responsible for
controlling your vehicle at all times. The
system is designed to be an aid and does
not relieve you of your responsibility to
drive with due care and attention. Failure
to follow this instruction could result in the
loss of control of your vehicle, personal
injury or death.
Note: Use caution using the 360 view when
any of the doors are ajar. If a door is ajar,
the camera will be out of position and the
video image may be incorrect.
The 360 degree camera system consists of
front, side and rear cameras. The system:
• Allows you to see what is directly in front
or behind your vehicle.
• Provides cross traffic view in front and
behind your vehicle.

Note:
The system turns off the front video
image when your vehicle is in motion at low
speed, except when in reverse (R). The front video camera is on the grille. It
provides a video image of the area in front
of your vehicle. It adds assistance to the
driver while driving forward at low speeds.
To use the front video camera system, place
the transmission in any gear except reverse
(R). An image displays once you press the
front camera enable button. The image on
the screen may vary according to your
vehicle's orientation or road condition. Side Camera
The side view camera, located in the outside
mirror, provides a video image of the area
on the sides of your vehicle as part of the
front 360 + normal view and rear 360 +
normal view. It aids you while parking your
vehicle either forward or backwards.
