Parking Aid: Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Mercury Mariner and 2010 Ford Escape. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The parking aid system consists of the following:
- Four ultrasonic parking aid sensors (located in the rear bumper)
- Parking Aid Module (PAM) (located in the RH rear quarter trim panel)
- Parking aid speaker (located on the PAM )
- Parking aid disable feature (integral to the Instrument Cluster (IC) message center)
- Parking aid disable feature is not available when a MyKey™ is in use
The parking aid system sounds a warning to alert the driver of stationary objects near the rear bumper when REVERSE (R) is selected. The parking aid system assists the driver in detecting certain objects while the vehicle moves slowly in reverse at speeds of less than 4.8 km/h (3 mph). The parking aid system may not detect angular or moving objects.
