Collision Avoidance and Parking Assist Systems: Description and Operation
PARKING AIDThe parking aid system consists of the following:
- Four ultrasonic parking aid sensors (located in the rear bumper)
- Parking aid module (PAM) (located under the instrument panel to the right of the steering column)
- Parking aid speaker - audible warning tone (located on the PAM)
- Parking aid disable switch (located in the instrument panel)
- Reverse gear select input (from the digital transmission range sensor to the PAM )
The parking aid system sounds a warning to alert the driver of stationary objects near the rear bumper when REVERSE (R) is selected. The parking aid system assists the driver in detecting certain objects while the vehicle moves slowly in reverse at speeds less than 4.8 Km/h (3 mph). The parking aid system may not detect angular or moving objects.
