Parkassist

ParkAssist

ParkAssist front and rear with a total of eight sensors and acoustic and visual warning is standard on the Cayenne Turbo and optional for the other models.
The operating range extends from 0 mph up to a speed of approx. 9 mph (15 km/h).

The sound of the acoustic warning is deeper in the rear than in the front. The intervals decrease until a continuous tone is emitted as the vehicle comes closer to an obstacle.







The acoustic warning at the front starts from 3 ft and at the rear from 4 ft. A single initial warning tone is displayed when an obstacle is at a distance of 6 ft. If the distance to an obstacle does not change, the tone is suppressed after approx. 8 seconds. The acoustic warning is played again if the vehicle approaches the obstacle.

In addition, the distances to obstacles are displayed in the form of a schematic representation of the top view of the vehicle in the central display.







The visual representation of detected obstacles takes place within a detection area in front of and behind the vehicle. In theory, obstacles at a distance of up to 4 ft at the front of the vehicle, up to 4 ft at the side and up to 6 ft at the rear can be displayed in the detection area. Based on the sensor range, obstacles at the side of the vehicle are displayed from approx. 2 ft at the front and from approx. 2.3 ft at the rear. The distance values determined by the system are filtered in order to produce a smooth, stable obstacle display. As a result, obstacles are not displayed until after approx. 2 seconds while stationary (compared with driving). ParkAssist is activated when the ignition is switched on. ParkAssist can be switched off using the ParkAssist OFF switch in the roof console (LED of the button lights up in this case). ParkAssist remains deactivated until it is switched on again via the button or the ignition is switched off and on again.
