Parking Aid Sensors

NOTE: The operating temperature range for the parking aid sensors is -40 deg. C (-40 deg. F) to 85 deg. C (176 deg. F).

The parking aid sensors are wide beam ultrasonic sensors. The sensors continuously send out ultrasonic signals to detect objects and communicate the information back to the PAM.

Only objects which reflect enough sound waves are detected by the sensors. This varies due to the shape, surface properties and size of objects being detected. Incorrect sensor alignment, dirt covered sensors, heavy rain or snow can cause objects not to be recognized.
