Park Assist System
The park assist system allows the vehicle to maneuver into and out of a parking space.
There are three available features to park assist:
- Parallel parking.
- Perpendicular parking.
- Parking exit.
The system comprises of:
- Parking Aid Control Module (PACM).
- Park assist switch.
- Two ultrasonic sensors on the wheel arch outer front finishers.
- Two ultrasonic sensors on the wheel arch outer rear finishers.
- Also uses the front and rear parking aid sensors.
When one of the features of park assist is selected, instructions are displayed in the Instrument Cluster (IC) message center. These instructions are communicated to the driver using the following methods:
- Visual - graphical and text message instructions.
- Audible - variable sound tones.
If a system fault is detected, a continuous tone will sound and a fault message is displayed in the message center.
360° Parking Aid System
The 360° Parking aid system is an additional aid to the parking aid system. The system uses the front and rear park assist sensors as well as the parking aid sensors.
When the vehicle is moving the sensors are scanning the vehicle surroundings. When an obstacle is detected and then moves out the sensor's range, it will then be tracked.
Information will then be displayed via the Touch Screen (TS) informing the driver of close, mid and far range objects and the relevant area in which these objects have been detected.
The Parking Aid Control Module (PACM) outputs a warning signal using the audio system speakers.
