Dodge Charger: STARTING AND OPERATING / PARKSENSE REAR PARK ASSIST — IF EQUIPPED
The ParkSense Rear Park Assist system provides visual and audible indications
of the distance between the rear fascia/bumper and a detected obstacle when backing
up (e.g. during a parking maneuver).
ParkSense will retain the system state (enabled or disabled) from the previous
ignition cycle when the ignition is changed to the ON/RUN position.
ParkSense can be active only when the gear selector is in REVERSE. If ParkSense
is enabled at this gear selector position, the system will remain active until the
vehicle speed is increased to approximately 7 mph (11 km/h) or above. The system
will become active again if the vehicle speed is decreased to speeds less than approximately
6 mph (9 km/h).
In certain driving situations, ACC may have detection issues. In these cases,
ACC may brake late or unexpectedly. The driver needs to stay alert and may need
to intervene...
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 12 inches (30 cm) up to 79 inches (200 cm) from the
rear fascia/ bumper...
Other information:
Your vehicle is equipped with 12 Volt (15 Amp) power outlets that can be used
to power cellular phones, small electronics and other low powered electrical accessories.
The power outlets are labeled with either a “key” or a “battery” symbol to indicate
how the outlet is powered...
Never exceed the maximum tongue weight stamped on your fascia/bumper or trailer
hitch.
CAUTION!
Always load a trailer with 60% of the weight in the front of the trailer.
This places 10% of the GTW on the tow hitch of your vehicle. Loads balanced over
the wheels or heavier in the rear can cause the trailer to sway severely side to
side which will cause loss of control of the vehicle and trailer...
