How the System Works when Backing

If the shift lever is in REVERSE (R), URPA detects objects close to the rear bumper. The ﬁrst time an object is detected a single beep will sound. If an object is detected at a REVERSE (R) speed between 0 mph (0 km/h) and 5 mph (8 km/h), the following describes what will occur based on your distance to a detected object located behind the vehicle:

•At distances between 40 inches (1 m) and

8 ft (2.5 m), a single amber light will come on.

•At distances between 23 inches (0.6 m) and

40 inches (1 m), both amber lights will be on.

•At distances between 12 inches (0.3 m) and 23 inches (0.6 m), all three lights (amber/amber/red) will be on.

•At distances less than 12 inches (0.3 m),

a beeping sound will repeat for a short time and all three lights (amber/amber/red) will ﬂash.

When the System Does Not Seem to Work Properly

If the URPA system will not activate due to a temporary condition, the message PARKING ASSIST OFF will be displayed on the DIC screen and a red light will come on the URPA display when the shift lever is moved into REVERSE (R). This occurs under the following conditions:

•The driver disables the system.

•The parking brake pedal is depressed.

•A trailer was attached to your vehicle, or a bicycle or an object was hanging out of your trunk during your last drive when you turned off the vehicle. If the attached objects are removed from your vehicle before the start of your next drive, the system will return to normal operation unless an object is detected when the vehicle is shifted into REVERSE (R). If this occurs, URPA assumes the object is still attached, so you will have to wait until the vehicle is driven forward above 15 mph

(25 km/h) before URPA will return to normal operation.
