WARNING   WARNING:  You must remain in your vehicle when the system turns on. At all times, you are responsible for controlling your vehicle, supervising the system and intervening, if required. Failure to take care may result in the loss of control of your vehicle, serious personal injury or death.
WARNING   WARNING:  The sensors may not detect objects in heavy rain or other conditions that cause interference.
WARNING   WARNING:  You are responsible for controlling your vehicle at all times. The system is designed to be an aid and does not relieve you of your responsibility to drive with due care and attention. Failure to follow this instruction could result in the loss of control of your vehicle, personal injury or death.
WARNING   WARNING:  Do not use the system with accessories that extend beyond the front or rear of your vehicle, for example a trailer hitch, bike rack or side mirror extensions such as telescoping mirrors or towing mirrors. The system is not able to make corrections for the additional length of the accessories.

The system assists parking into and out of parking spaces. It uses sensors to detect parking spaces. The system then steers, accelerates, brakes and shifts gear as required to maneuver into or out of a parking space.
Using Active Park Assist

Note:   When parking perpendicularly, the system backs your vehicle into parking spaces.
  1. Press the active park assist button.
Note:   The system does not recognize parking space lines and centers your vehicle between objects.
Note:   The system detects other vehicles and curbs to find a parking space.
Note:   The system searches for parallel parking spaces on the passenger side. Press the active park assist button again to make the system search for perpendicular spaces.
  1. Use the direction indicator lever to search for a parking space on the driver or passenger side of your vehicle.
  1. Drive your vehicle approximately 3 ft (1 m) away from and parallel to the other parked vehicles when searching for a parking space.

  1. Press and hold the brake pedal.
  1. Release the steering wheel and shift into neutral (N).
  1. Press and hold the active park assist button.
  1. Release the brake pedal to allow the vehicle to park.
Note:   When parallel parking between objects, the system parks closer to the object in front of your vehicle to allow easier access to your luggage compartment.
Note:   When perpendicular parking, the system aligns the front end of your vehicle with the object next to it.
Note:   When perpendicular parking, if the system detects only one object, it allows enough distance to open the door on either side.
Note:   You can slow down your vehicle at any time by pressing the brake pedal.
Note:   When parking is complete the vehicle shifts into park (P).
Leaving a Parking Space
The system assists leaving only parallel parking spaces.

Note:   After the system drives your vehicle to a position where you can exit the parking space in a forward movement, a message appears instructing you to take full control of your vehicle.
Canceling Active Park Assist
To cancel parking assistance at any time, shift out of neutral (N).
Note:   If you turn the steering wheel or open the driver door the parking assistance also cancels.
Pausing Active Park Assist
To pause parking assistance at any time, release the active park assist button.
The vehicle stops moving until you press and hold the active park assist button again.
Note:   If you open the passenger or rear doors the parking assistance also pauses.
Active Park Assist Troubleshooting

Symptom   Possible Cause  
The system does not correctly operate.   The system is unable to detect a vehicle, curb or object to park next to, or in-between. This could occur because of sensors not operating correctly, not enough room for your vehicle, or the traction control is off.  
The system does not search for a parking space.   You may have switched traction control off.  
The transmission is in reverse (R). Your vehicle must be moving forward to be able to detect a parking space.  
The system does not offer a parking space.   There could be blockage on the sensors. For example, snow, ice or large accumulations of dirt. Blocked sensors can affect how the system functions.  
The sensors in the front or rear bumper could be damaged.  
There is not enough room in the parking space for your vehicle to safely park.  
There is not enough space for the parking maneuver on the opposite side of the parking space.  
The parking space is more than 5 ft (1.5 m) or less than 2 ft (0.5 m) away.  
The vehicle speed is greater than 22 mph (35 km/h) for parallel parking or greater than 19 mph (30 km/h) for perpendicular parking.  
You recently disconnected or replaced the battery. After you reconnect the battery you must drive your vehicle on a straight road for a short period of time.  
The system does not correctly position your vehicle in a parking space.   An irregular curb along the parking space prevents the system from correctly aligning your vehicle.  
Vehicles or objects bordering the space may not be correctly parked.  
Your vehicle stopped too far past the parking space.  
The tires may not be correctly installed or maintained. For example, not inflated correctly, improper size, or of different sizes.  
A repair or alteration changes the detection capabilities.  
A parked vehicle has a high attachment. For example, a salt sprayer, snowplow or moving truck bed.  
The parking space length or position of parked objects changes after your vehicle passes the space.  
You are using a spare tire or a tire more significantly worn than the other tires.  
The temperature around your vehicle quickly changes. For example, driving from a heated garage into cold outside temperature, or after leaving a car wash.
