Parking Aid

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2015 Ford Focus. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The rear parking aid system sounds a warning through the rear audio speakers to alert the driver of objects near the rear bumper when REVERSE is selected. The parking aid system assists the driver in detecting certain objects when the vehicle is in reverse, the vehicle is moving toward an object within the detection range of the sensors, the vehicle is stationary and an object approaches within the detection range of the sensors, or the vehicle and object are moving toward one another.

The parking aid system is disabled if a fault is detected in a parking aid sensor, the communications network, the or the PAM. This is indicated by a parking aid disabled warning message in the message center.

The parking aid system is enabled and disabled through the message center, located in the IPC. Disabling lasts one key cycle.

If a MyKey® restricted key is in use, the parking aid menu is not available in the message center and cannot be deactivated.
