STARTING AND OPERATING 177
While audible signals are emitted, the audio system is
muted.
The audible signal is turned off immediately if the distance
increases. The tone cycle remains constant if the distance
measured by the inner sensors is constant. If this condition occurs
for the external sensors, the signal is turned off after three seconds
(stopping warnings during maneuvers parallel to walls).
ParkSense Rear Park Assist Failure Indications
A malfunction of the ParkSense sensors or system is indi
-
cated, during REVERSE gear engagement, by the instrument
panel warning icon.
The warning icon is illuminated and a message is
displayed on the instrument cluster display (if
equipped). Refer to “Warning Lights And
Messages” in “Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel” for
further information.
The sensors and wiring are tested continuously when the
ignition is in the MAR (ACC/ON/RUN) position. Failures are
indicated immediately if they occur when the system is on.
Even if the system is able to identify that a specific sensor is
in failure condition, the instrument cluster display shall
indicate that the ParkSense system is unavailable, without
reference to the sensor in failure condition. If even a single
sensor fails, the entire system must be disabled. The system
is turned off automatically.
