Driving and Operating 8-47

WARNING
The URPA system does not
detect pedestrians, bicyclists,
animals, or any other objects
located below the bumper or that
are too close or too far from the
vehicle. To prevent injury, death,
or vehicle damage, even with
URPA, always check behind the
vehicle and check all mirrors
before backing.
How the System Works
URPA comes on automatically
when the shift lever is moved into
R (Reverse). A single tone sounds
to indicate the system is working.
URPA operates only at speeds less
than 8 km/h (5 mph).
An obstacle is indicated by audible
beeps. The interval between the
beeps becomes shorter as the
vehicle gets closer to the obstacle.
When the distance is less than
30 cm (12 in), the beeping is a
continuous tone for five seconds.
To be detected, objects must
be at least 25 cm (10 in) off the
ground and below trunk or liftgate
level. Objects must also be within
2.5 m (8 ft) of the rear bumper.
This distance may be less during
warmer or humid weather.
Turning the System On and Off
The system can be disabled through
the Driver Information Center (DIC).
See “Parking Assist” under Driver
Information Center (DIC) on
page 4‑31 for more information.
URPA defaults to the on setting
each time the vehicle is started.
When the System Does Not
Seem to Work Properly
The following messages may be
displayed on the DIC:
PARKING ASSIST OFF: This
message occurs if the driver
disables the system or if vehicle
is driven above 8 km/h (5 mph) in
R (Reverse).
SERVICE PARKING ASSIST: If
this message occurs, take the
vehicle to your dealer to repair the
system.
