284 Driving and Operating
{Warning
Camera visibility may be
limited and the ACC system
may not work properly if the
windshield is not clear. Do
not use ACC if moisture is
present on the inside of the
windshield or the windshield
washer is used in cold
weather. Turn on the front
defroster and make sure the
windshield is clear before
using ACC. Before driving,
check that the windshield
wipers are in good condition
and replace them if worn.
Accessory Installations and
Vehicle Modifications
Do not install or place any
object around the front
camera windshield area that
would obstruct the front
camera view.
Do not install objects on top of
the vehicle that overhang and
obstruct the front camera, such as a canoe, kayak,
or other items that can be
transported on a roof rack
system. See Roof Rack
System
0106.
Do not modify the hood,
headlamps, or fog lamps, as
this may limit the camera’s
ability to detect an object.
Cleaning the Sensing System
The camera sensor on the
windshield behind the
rearview mirror and the radar
sensors on the front of the
vehicle can become blocked by
snow, ice, dirt, or mud. These
areas need to be cleaned for
ACC to operate properly.
If ACC will not operate, regular
cruise control may be
available. See “Switching
Between ACC and Regular
Cruise Control” in this section.
Always consider driving
conditions before using either
cruise control system. For cleaning instructions, see
“Washing the Vehicle”
under
Exterior Care 0412.
Driver Assistance
Systems
This vehicle may have features
that work together to help
avoid crashes or reduce crash
damage while driving, backing,
and parking. Read this entire
section before using these
systems.
{Warning
Do not rely on the Driver
Assistance Systems. These
systems do not replace the
need for paying attention
and driving safely. You may
not hear or feel alerts or
warnings provided by these
systems. Failure to use
proper care when driving
may result in injury, death,
or vehicle damage. See
Defensive Driving 0230.

(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
using only these camera(s).
Always check behind and

shows an image of the area
surrounding the vehicle, along

behind and 1.2 m (4 ft) in front
of your vehicle that are taller
than 25 cm (10 in).
Different environmental
conditions may affect whether
and how far the Park Assist
system can detect objects.
Keep the sensors clean of
mud, dirt, snow, ice, and slush;
and clean sensors after a car
wash in freezing
temperatures. Sensors that
are not clean may not detect
objects or may cause the
system to alert when not
required.
{Warning
The Park Assist System is
no substitute for careful and
attentive driving. The Park
Assist system does not
detect children, pedestrians,
bicyclists, animals, or objects
located below the bumper or
that are too close or too far
from the vehicle. It is not
available at speeds greater(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
than 9 km/h (6 mph). To
prevent injury, death,
or vehicle damage, even with
Park Assist, always check
the area around the vehicle
and check all mirrors before
moving forward or backing.
How the System Works
The vehicle may have a Park
Assist amphitheatre-like
display on the cluster with
bars that represent the
estimated location of a
detected object and the
vehicle’s distance from the
object. As a detected object
becomes closer, more bars
light up and change color from
yellow to amber to red.
When an object is first
detected in the rear, one beep
will be heard from the rear,
or the driver's seat will pulse
two times, if equipped with
Safety Alert Seat. When an
object is very close, five beeps will sound from the front or
rear (depending on the
object's location), or the
driver's seat will pulse five
times. Beeps for front are
higher pitched than the rear.
Turning the System On
and Off
The Park Assist System can
be turned on or off using the
infotainment system. To view
available settings for this
feature, touch the Settings
icon on the infotainment home
page. Select
“Vehicle”to
display the list of available
options and select “Collision/
Detection Systems”.
