Introduction

The park assist system is designed to assist you when driving into parking spaces, garages, etc. It utilizes ultrasound sensors in the front bumper and rear bumper(s) to measure the distance to a vehicle or an object that may be close to the front or rear of your vehicle. An audible signal and symbols in the audio system’s display indicate the distance to the object.
WARNING
Park Assist is an information system, NOT a
safety system. This system is designed to
be a supplementary aid when parking the
vehicle. It is not, however, intended to
replace the driver's attention and judgement.
