Rear Parking Assist Operation

2011 Cadillac Escalade Base, AWDSECTION Rear Parking Assist Operation
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 GMC Sierra, 2010 GMC Cab & Chassis Sierra, 2010 Chevrolet Silverado, and 2010 Chevrolet Cab & Chassis Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

When the vehicle is first placed into reverse, an audible beep will sound to indicate the system is working.

When backing up at speed of less than 8 km/h (5 mph), the system is constantly monitoring for object of interest located behind the vehicle. The parking assist system can detect objects greater than 7.6 cm (3 in) wide and 25.4 cm (10 in) tall. The system cannot detect objects below the bumper or underneath the vehicle. If an object is detected within 2.5 m (8 ft) away from the rear bumper, there will be an audible beep out of the speakers. As the vehicle gets closer to an object, the time between the beeps becomes shorter. If the vehicle stops and there is an object within 2.5 m (8 ft) away from the rear bumper the beeping will stop after 5 seconds. When the distance between the object and the vehicle starts to decrease again the beeping will start again.

If the parking assist system detects a malfunction when the vehicle is placed into reverse there will be no audible beep and a DTC will be stored. The rear object sensor control module will send a serial data message to the instrument panel cluster (IPC) to display the SERVICE PARK ASSIST message on the driver information center (DIC).
