turn ON indicating the system status.

The system will indicate a detected obstacle by showing a
single arc in the left and/or right rear regions based on the
object’s distance and location relative to the vehicle.

If an object is detected in the left and/or right rear region,
the display will show a single solid arc in the left and/or
right rear region and the system will produce a tone. As the
vehicle moves closer to the object, the display will show the
single arc moving closer to the vehicle and the tone will
change from a single 1/2 second tone to slow, to fast, to
continuous.

appears in the instrument cluster display make sure the
outer surface and the underside of the rear fascia/bumper
is clean and clear of snow, ice, mud, dirt or other obstruc-
tion, and then cycle the ignition. If the message continues
to appear, see an authorized dealer.

If

⬙PARKSENSE UNAVAILABLE SERVICE REQUIRED⬙

appears in the instrument cluster display, see your autho-
rized dealer.

Cleaning The ParkSense System

Clean the ParkSense sensors with water, car wash soap and
a soft cloth. Do not use rough or hard cloths. Do not scratch
or poke the sensors. Otherwise, you could damage the
sensors.

ParkSense System Usage Precautions

NOTE:

• Ensure that the rear bumper is free of snow, ice, mud,

dirt and debris to keep the ParkSense system operating
properly.

• Jackhammers, large trucks, and other vibrations could

affect the performance of ParkSense.

• When you turn ParkSense off, the instrument cluster

display will show

⬙PARKSENSE OFF⬙. Furthermore,

once you turn ParkSense off, it remains off until you turn
it on again, even if you cycle the ignition key.

• When you move the gear selector to the REVERSE

position and ParkSense is turned off, the Instrument
Cluster Display will show the

⬙PARKSENSE OFF⬙ mes-

sage for as long as the vehicle is in REVERSE.

• ParkSense, when on, will reduce the volume of the radio

when it is sounding a tone.

• Clean the ParkSense sensors regularly, taking care not to

scratch or damage them. The sensors must not be
covered with ice, snow, slush, mud, dirt or debris.
Failure to do so can result in the system not working
properly. The ParkSense system might not detect an

3

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

153

obstacle behind the fascia/bumper, or it could provide a
false indication that an obstacle is behind the fascia/
bumper.

• Ensure the ParkSense system is OFF if objects such as

bicycle carriers, trailer hitches, etc., are placed within 18
in (45 cm) from the rear fascia/bumper while driving the
vehicle. Failure to do so can result in the system misin-
terpreting a close obstacle as a sensor problem, causing
the

⬙PARKSENSE UNAVAILABLE SERVICE RE-

QUIRED

⬙ message to appear in the instrument cluster

display.

• On vehicles equipped with a tailgate, ParkSense should

be disabled when the tailgate is in the lowered or open
position and the vehicle is in REVERSE. A lowered
tailgate could provide a false indication that an obstacle
is behind the vehicle.

WARNING!

• Drivers must be careful when backing up even when

using ParkSense. Always check carefully behind
your vehicle, look behind you, and be sure to check
for pedestrians, animals, other vehicles, obstructions,

(Continued)

WARNING! (Continued)

and blind spots before backing up. You are respon-
sible for safety and must continue to pay attention to
your surroundings. Failure to do so can result in
serious injury or death.

• Before using ParkSense, it is strongly recommended

that the ball mount and hitch ball assembly is
disconnected from the vehicle when the vehicle is
not used for towing. Failure to do so can result in
injury or damage to vehicles or obstacles because the
hitch ball will be much closer to the obstacle than the
rear fascia when the loudspeaker sounds the con-
tinuous tone. Also, the sensors could detect the ball
mount and hitch ball assembly, depending on its size
and shape, giving a false indication that an obstacle
is behind the vehicle.

CAUTION!

• ParkSense is only a parking aid and it is unable to

recognize every obstacle, including small obstacles.
Parking curbs might be temporarily detected or not
detected at all. Obstacles located above or below the

(Continued)

154

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

CAUTION! (Continued)

sensors will not be detected when they are in close
proximity.

• The vehicle must be driven slowly when using

ParkSense in order to be able to stop in time when an
obstacle is detected. It is recommended that the
driver looks over his/her shoulder when using
ParkSense.

PARKSENSE FRONT AND REAR PARK ASSIST —
IF EQUIPPED

The ParkSense Park Assist system provides visual and
audible indications of the distance between the rear and/or
front fascia and a detected obstacle when backing up or
moving forward, e.g. during a parking maneuver. Refer to
“ParkSense System Usage Precautions” in this section for
limitations of this system and recommendations.

ParkSense will retain the last system state (enabled or
disabled) from the last ignition cycle when the ignition is
changed to the ON/RUN position.

ParkSense can be active only when the gear selector is in
REVERSE or DRIVE. If ParkSense is enabled at one of these
gear selector positions, the system will remain active until

the vehicle speed is increased to approximately 7 mph
(11 km/h) or above. A warning will appear in the Instru-
ment Cluster Display indicating the vehicle is above
ParkSense operating speed. The system will become active
again if the vehicle speed is decreased to speeds less than
approximately 6 mph (9 km/h).

ParkSense Sensors

For the 3500, 4500 and 5500 Chassis Cab vehicles, the rear
ParkSense sensors are shipped loose. Please Refer to the
Ram Body Builders Guide for more information.

The four ParkSense sensors, located in the rear fascia/
bumper, monitor the area behind the vehicle that is within
the sensors’ field of view. The sensors can detect obstacles
from approximately 18 in (45 cm) up to 79 in (200 cm) from
the rear fascia/bumper in the horizontal direction, depend-
ing on the location, type and orientation of the obstacle.

The six ParkSense sensors, located in the front fascia/
bumper, monitor the area in front of the vehicle that is
within the sensors’ field of view. The sensors can detect
obstacles from approximately 12 in (30 cm) up to 47 in
(120 cm) from the front fascia/bumper in the horizontal
direction, depending on the location, type and orientation
of the obstacle.
