Parking Assistance (Option)

The Parking Assistance Module (PAM) helps the driver park the vehicle.

When the parking assistance system is active, this is indicated by a text message in the display for the Infotainment Control Module (ICM).

The image below indicates the frequency of a pulsed warning signal that is heard from the speakers in the vehicle when the parking sensors have detected an obstacle in the way. The closer the vehicle is to the obstacle, the shorter the time between the audible signals becomes. When there is less than 30 cm left to the obstacle, the audible signal becomes continuous.

The graphics in column A show how the inner sensors work. The graphics in column B show how the outer sensors work.

For the distance intervals for the sensors to detect an obstacle, see below.

The distance intervals for the front parking sensors 

The following applies regarding distance intervals for the front parking sensors to detect obstacles, and when the pulsed warning signal allows different frequencies from the front speakers until it goes to a constant audible signal:

A1 = 65-80 cm

A2/B2 = 60-65 cm

A3/B3 = 30-50 cm

A4/B4 less than 30 cm

The distance intervals for the rear parking sensors 

The following applies regarding distance intervals for the rear parking sensors to detect obstacles, and when the pulsed warning signal allows different frequencies from the rear speakers until it goes to a constant audible signal:

A5 = 70-150 cm

A6/B6 = 50-70 cm

A7/B7 = 30-50 cm

A8/B8 less than 30 cm
