Introduction

The DCC fuse is removed at the assembly plant to reduce parasitic current draw from the battery during transport and storage. As a result of the removal of the DCC fuse, the intuitive parking assist system will not operate correctly until initialized.

Perform the initial calibration of the intuitive parking assist system following the procedure in this bulletin after installing the DCC fuse or any time after disconnecting the battery.

NOTE: Any time the battery terminal has been disconnected, the intuitive parking assist system MUST be re-initialized.
