RECAUTIONS

NOTE:



Ensure that the front and rear bumper are free

of snow, ice, mud, dirt and debris to keep the

ParkSense system operating properly.



Jackhammers, large trucks, and other vibra

tions could affect the performance of Park

Sense.



When you turn ParkSense off, the instrument

cluster will display “PARKSENSE OFF.” Further

more, once you turn ParkSense off, it remains

off until you turn it on again, even if you cycle the

ignition.



When you move the gear selector to the

REVERSE position and ParkSense is turned off,

the instrument cluster will display “PARKSENSE

OFF” 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 obstacle

behind or in front of the fascia/bumper, or it

could provide a false indication that an obstacle

is behind or in front of the fascia/bumper.



Use the ParkSense switch to turn the ParkSense

system off if objects such as bicycle carriers,

trailer hitches, etc. are placed within 12 inches

(30 cm) from the rear fascia/bumper. Failure to

do so can result in the system misinterpreting a

close object as a sensor problem, causing the

“PARKSENSE UNAVAILABLE WIPE REAR

SENSORS” message to be displayed in the

instrument cluster.



ParkSense should be disabled when the liftgate

is in the open position. An opened liftgate 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, and blind spots before

backing up. You are responsible 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 recom

mended that the ball mount and hitch ball

assembly be 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 vehicle sounds the

continuous 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.

126

STARTING AND OPERATING

PARKSENSE ACTIVE PARK ASSIST SYSTEM —

IF EQUIPPED

The ParkSense Active Park Assist system is

intended to assist the driver during parallel and

perpendicular parking maneuvers by identifying a

proper parking space, providing audible/visual

instructions, and controlling the steering wheel.

The ParkSense Active Park Assist system is

defined as “semi-automatic” since the driver

maintains control of the accelerator, gear selector

and brakes. Depending on the driver's parking

maneuver selection, the ParkSense Active Park

Assist system is capable of maneuvering a vehicle

into a parallel or a perpendicular parking space on

either side (i.e., driver side or passenger side).

NOTE:



The driver is always responsible for controlling

the vehicle, responsible for any surrounding

objects, and must intervene as required.



The system is designed to assist the driver and

not to substitute the driver.



During a semi-automatic maneuver, if the driver

touches the steering wheel after being

instructed to remove their hands from the

steering wheel, the system will cancel, and the

driver will be required to manually complete the

parking maneuver.



The system may not work in all conditions (e.g.

environmental conditions such as heavy rain,

snow, etc., or if searching for a parking space

that has surfaces that will absorb the ultrasonic

sensor waves).



New vehicles from the dealership must have at

least 30 miles (48 km) accumulated before the

ParkSense Active Park Assist system is fully cali

brated and performs accurately. This is due to

the system’s dynamic vehicle calibration to

improve the performance of the feature. The

system will also continuously perform the

dynamic vehicle calibration to account for differ

ences such as over or under inflated tires and

new tires.

during active steering guidance into the parking

space

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 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

NOTE:



When searching for a parking space, use the

turn signal indicator to select which side of the

vehicle you want to perform the parking

maneuver. The ParkSense Active Park Assist

system will automatically search for a parking

space on the passenger's side of the vehicle if

the turn signal is not activated.



The driver needs to make sure that the selected

parking space for the maneuver remains free

and clear of any obstructions (e.g. pedestrians,

bicycles, etc.).



The driver is responsible to ensure that the

selected parking space is suitable for the

maneuver and free/clear of anything that may

be overhanging or protruding into the parking

space (e.g., ladders, tailgates, etc. from

surrounding objects/vehicles).



When seeking a parking space, the driver

should drive as parallel or perpendicular

(depending on the type of maneuver) to other

vehicles as possible.



The system will only indicate the last detected

parking space (example: if passing multiple

available parking spaces, the system will only

indicate the last detected parking space for the

maneuver). There must be a vehicle on either

side of the open parking space in order for the

system to detect it.

When an available parking space has been found,

and the vehicle is not in position, you will be

instructed to move forward to position the vehicle

for a perpendicular or parallel parking sequence

(depending on the type of maneuver being

performed).

Space Found — Keep Moving Forward

Once the vehicle is in position, you will be

instructed to stop the vehicle’s movement and

remove your hands from the steering wheel. When

the vehicle comes to a standstill (your hands still

removed from the steering wheel), you will be

instructed to place the gear selector into the

REVERSE position.

STARTING AND OPERATING

(Continued)

The system may then instruct the driver to wait for

steering to complete before then instructing to

check the vehicle’s surroundings, and move

backward.

Move Backward Into Parallel Parking Space

Move Backward Into Perpendicular Parking Space

Several more gear shifts (DRIVE and REVERSE)

while keeping hands off of the steering wheel will

be instructed to the driver while checking the

vehicle’s surroundings before completing the

parking maneuver.
When the vehicle is in the parking position, the

maneuver is complete and the driver will be

instructed to check the vehicle's parking position,

then shift the vehicle into PARK. The message

“Active ParkSense Complete - Check Parking

Position” will be displayed momentarily.

NOTE:



It is the driver's responsibility to use the brake

and stop the vehicle. The driver should check

their surroundings and be prepared to stop the

vehicle either when instructed to, or when driver

intervention is required.



It is the driver’s responsibility to use the brake

and accelerator during the semi-automatic

parking maneuver.



When the system instructs the driver to remove

their hands from the steering wheel, the driver

should check their surroundings and begin to

back up slowly.



The ParkSense Active Park Assist system will

allow a maximum of eight shifts between DRIVE

and REVERSE. If the maneuver cannot be

completed within eight shifts, the system will

cancel and the instrument cluster display will

instruct the driver to complete the maneuver

manually.



The system will cancel the maneuver if the

vehicle speed exceeds 5 mph (7 km/h) during

active steering guidance into the parking space.

The system will provide a warning to the driver

at 3 mph (5 km/h) that tells them to slow down.

The driver is then responsible for completing the

maneuver if the system is canceled.



If the system is canceled during the maneuver

for any reason, the driver must take control of

the vehicle.

WARNING!



Drivers must be careful when performing

parallel or perpendicular parking maneuvers

even when using the ParkSense Active Park

Assist system. Always check carefully behind

and in front of your vehicle, look behind and in

front of you, and be sure to check for pedes

trians, animals, other vehicles, obstructions,

and blind spots before backing up and moving

forward. You are responsible for safety and

must continue to pay attention to your

surroundings. Failure to do so can result in

serious injury or death.

LANESENSE — IF EQUIPPED

ANE

ENSE

PERATION

The LaneSense system is operational at speeds

above 37 mph (60 km/h) and below 112 mph

(180 km/h). The LaneSense system uses a

forward looking camera to detect lane markings

and measure vehicle position within the lane

boundaries.
When both lane markings are detected and the

driver drifts out of the lane (no turn signal applied),

the LaneSense system provides a haptic warning

in the form of torque applied to the steering wheel

to prompt the driver to remain within the lane

boundaries. If the driver continues to drift out of

the lane, the LaneSense system provides a visual

warning through the instrument cluster display to

prompt the driver to remain within the lane

boundaries.

The driver may manually override the haptic

warning by applying force to the steering wheel at

any time.
When only a single lane marking is detected and

the driver drifts across the lane marking (no turn

signal applied), the LaneSense system provides

visual warnings through the instrument cluster

display to prompt the driver to remain within the

lane. When only a single lane marking is detected,

a haptic or a torque warning will not be provided.

NOTE:

When operating conditions have been met, the

LaneSense system will monitor if the driver’s

hands are on the steering wheel and provide an

audible warning to the driver if removed. The

system will cancel if the driver does not return their

hands to the wheel.

Before using the ParkSense Active Park Assist

system, it is strongly recommended that the

ball mount and hitch ball assembly be discon

nected 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

VEHICLE LOADING

ERTIFICATION

ABEL

As required by National Highway Traffic Safety

Administration regulations, your vehicle has a

certification label affixed to the driver's side door or

pillar.
This label contains the month and year of

manufacture, Gross Vehicle Weight Rating

(GVWR), front and rear Gross Axle Weight Rating

(GAWR), and Vehicle Identification Number (VIN).

A Month-Day-Hour (MDH) number is included on

this label and indicates the Month, Day and Hour of

manufacture. The bar code that appears on the

bottom of the label is your VIN.

Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR)

The GVWR is the total permissible weight of your

vehicle including driver, passengers, vehicle,

options and cargo. The label also specifies

maximum capacities of front and rear GAWR. Total

load must be limited so GVWR and front and rear

GAWR are not exceeded.

Payload

The payload of a vehicle is defined as the allowable

load weight a truck can carry, including the weight

of the driver, all passengers, options and cargo.

Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR)

The GAWR is the maximum permissible load on the

front and rear axles. The load must be distributed

in the cargo area so that the GAWR of each axle is

not exceeded.
Each axle GAWR is determined by the components

in the system with the lowest load carrying capacity

(axle, springs, tires or wheels). Heavier axles or

suspension components sometimes specified by

purchasers for increased durability does not

necessarily increase the vehicle's GVWR.

Tire Size

The tire size on the Vehicle Certification Label

represents the actual tire size on your vehicle.

Replacement tires must be equal to the load

capacity of this tire size.

Rim Size

This is the rim size that is appropriate for the tire

size listed.

Inflation Pressure

This is the cold tire inflation pressure for your

vehicle for all loading conditions up to full Gross

Axle Weight Rating (GAWR).

Curb Weight

The curb weight of a vehicle is defined as the total

weight of the vehicle with all fluids, including

vehicle fuel, at full capacity conditions, and with no

occupants or cargo loaded into the vehicle. The

front and rear curb weight values are determined

by weighing your vehicle on a commercial scale

before any occupants or cargo are added.

The actual total weight and the weight of the front

and rear of your vehicle at the ground can best be

determined by weighing it when it is loaded and

ready for operation.

136

STARTING AND OPERATING

The entire vehicle should first be weighed on a

commercial scale to ensure that the Gross Vehicle

Weight Rating (GVWR) has not been exceeded. The

weight on the front and rear of the vehicle should

then be determined separately to be sure that the

load is properly distributed over the front and rear

axle. Weighing the vehicle may show that the Gross

Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) of either the front or

rear axles has been exceeded but the total load is

within the specified GVWR. If so, weight must be

shifted from front to rear or rear to front as

appropriate until the specified weight limitations

are met. Store the heavier items down low and be

sure that the weight is distributed equally. Stow all

loose items securely before driving.
Improper weight distributions can have an adverse

effect on the way your vehicle steers and handles

and the way the brakes operate.

TRAILER TOWING

In this section you will find safety tips and

information on limits to the type of towing you can

reasonably do with your vehicle. Before towing a

trailer, carefully review this information to tow your

load as efficiently and safely as possible.
To maintain the New Vehicle Limited Warranty

coverage, follow the requirements and

recommendations in this manual concerning

vehicles used for trailer towing.

OMMON

OWING

EFINITIONS

The following trailer towing related definitions will

assist you in understanding the following

information:

Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR)

The GVWR is the total allowable weight of your

vehicle. This includes driver, passengers, cargo

and tongue weight. The total load must be limited

so that you do not exceed the GVWR

page 135.

Gross Trailer Weight (GTW)

The GTW is the weight of the trailer plus the weight

of all cargo, consumables and equipment

(permanent or temporary) loaded in or on the

trailer in its "loaded and ready for operation"

condition.
The recommended way to measure GTW is to put

your fully loaded trailer on a vehicle scale. The

entire weight of the trailer must be supported by

the scale.

Gross Combination Weight Rating (GCWR)

The GCWR is the total allowable weight of your

vehicle and trailer when weighed in combination.

CAUTION!

Do not load your vehicle any heavier than the

GVWR or the maximum front and rear GAWR. If

you do, parts on your vehicle can break, or it can

change the way your vehicle handles. This could

cause you to lose control. Overloading can

shorten the life of your vehicle.

WARNING!

If the gross trailer weight is 5,000 lb (2,267 kg)

or more, it is recommended to use a

weight-distributing hitch to ensure stable

handling of your vehicle. If you use a standard

weight-carrying hitch, you could lose control of

your vehicle and cause a collision.

STARTING AND OPERATING

137

Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR)

The GAWR is the maximum capacity of the front

and rear axles. Distribute the load over the front

and rear axles evenly. Make sure that you do not

exceed either front or rear GAWR

page 135.

Tongue Weight (TW)

The TW is the downward force exerted on the hitch

ball by the trailer. You must consider this as part of

the load on your vehicle.

Trailer Frontal Area

The frontal area is the maximum height multiplied

by the maximum width of the front of a trailer.

Trailer Sway Control (TSC)

The TSC can be a mechanical telescoping link that

can be installed between the hitch receiver and the

trailer tongue that typically provides adjustable

friction associated with the telescoping motion to

dampen any unwanted trailer swaying motions

while traveling.
If equipped, the electronic TSC recognizes a

swaying trailer and automatically applies individual

wheel brakes and/or reduces engine power to

attempt to eliminate the trailer sway.

Weight-Carrying Hitch

A weight-carrying hitch supports the trailer tongue

weight, just as if it were luggage located at a hitch

ball or some other connecting point of the vehicle.

These kinds of hitches are commonly used to tow

small and medium sized trailers.

Weight-Distributing Hitch

A weight-distributing hitch system works by

applying leverage through spring (load) bars. They

are typically used for heavier loads to distribute

trailer tongue weight to the tow vehicle's front axle

and the trailer axle(s). When used in accordance

with the manufacturer's directions, it provides for a

more level ride, offering more consistent steering

and brake control thereby enhancing towing

safety. The addition of a friction/hydraulic sway

control also dampens sway caused by traffic and

crosswinds and contributes positively to tow

vehicle and trailer stability. Trailer sway control and

a weight-distributing (load equalizing) hitch are

recommended for heavier TW and may be required

depending on vehicle and trailer configuration/

loading to comply with GAWR requirements.

WARNING!

It is important that you do not exceed the

maximum front or rear GAWR. A dangerous

driving condition can result if either rating is

exceeded. You could lose control of the vehicle

and have a collision.

WARNING!



An improperly adjusted weight-distributing

hitch system may reduce handling, stability,

braking performance, and could result in a

collision.



Weight-distributing hitch systems may not be

compatible with surge brake couplers. Consult

with your hitch and trailer manufacturer or a

reputable Recreational Vehicle dealer for

additional information.
