Object Detection Systems
Ultrasonic Rear Parking
Assist (URPA)
For vehicles with the URPA system, it operates at
speeds less than 3 mph (5 km/h), and assists the driver
with parking and avoiding objects while in R (Reverse).
The sensors on the rear bumper are used to detect the
distance to an object up to 5 feet (1.5 m) behind the
vehicle and at least 10 inches (25.4 cm) off the ground.
{ WARNING:
The Ultrasonic Rear Parking Assist (URPA)
system does not replace driver vision. It cannot
detect:
. Objects that are below the bumper,
underneath the vehicle, or too close or far
from the vehicle
. Children, pedestrians, bicyclists, or pets.

WARNING: (Continued)
If you do not use proper care before and while
backing, vehicle damage, injury, or death could
occur. Even with URPA, always check behind the
vehicle before backing up. While backing, be sure
to look for objects and check the vehicle's mirrors.
The display is located in
the dome lamp and can
be seen by looking over
your right shoulder.
URPA uses three color-coded lights to provide distance
and system information.
