damage, even with Park Assist, always
check the area around the vehicle and
check all mirrors before moving forward
or backing.
How the System Works
RPA
comes on automatically when the shift
lever is moved into R (Reverse). Asingle beep
sounds to indicate the system is working.
RPA operates only at speeds less than 9 km/h
(6 mph).
An obstacle detection is indicated by beeps. The
time between beeps gets shorter as the vehicle
approaches the obstacle. Repeated beeps are
heard when the distance is less than 30 cm
(12 in).
To be detected, objects must be at least 25 cm
(10 in) off the ground and below rear door level.
Objects must also be within 2.5 m (8 ft) from 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 “Park Assist”
under Driver Information Center (DIC) 381.
RPA defaults to the on setting each time the
vehicle is started.
Turn RPA off when towing atrailer.
When the System Does Not Seem to
Work Properly
The following messages may be displayed on
the DIC:
SERVICE PARK ASSIST: If this message occurs,
take the vehicle to your dealer for repair.
PARK ASSIST OFF: This message occurs if the
driver disables the system or if the vehicle is
driven above 9 km/h (6 mph) in R (Reverse).
PARK ASST BLOCKED SEE OWNERS MANUAL:
This message can occur under the
following conditions:
•
The sensors are not clean. Keep the rear
bumper free of mud, dirt, snow, ice, slush,
and frost. The message may not clear until
frost or ice has melted all around and inside
the sensor.
•
A t
railer is attached to the vehicle, or
a bicycle or an object hanging out of the rear
door during the current or last drive cycle.
RPA will return to normal operation after it
is determined the object is removed. This
could take afew drive cycles.
•
A tow bar is attached to the vehicle.
Other conditions may affect system
performance, such as vibrations from
ajackhammer or the compression of air brakes
on avery large truck.
Forward Collision Alert (FCA)
System
If equipped, the FCA system may help to
avoid or reduce the harm caused by front-end
crashes. When approaching a vehicle ahead too
quickly, FCA provides a red flashing alert on the
windshield and rapidly beeps. FCA also lights an
amber visual alert if following another vehicle
much too closely.
FCA detects vehicles within adistance of
approximately 60 m (197 ft) and operates at
speeds above 8 km/h (5 mph).
