WARNING
The UFRPA 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
UFRPA, always check the area
around the vehicle and check all
mirrors before moving forward or
backing.
How the System Works
When the vehicle is shifted into
R (Reverse) the front and rear
sensors are automatically turned on.
After the vehicle is shifted out of
R (Reverse), the rear sensors are
turned off and the front sensors
stay on until the vehicle is above
a speed of 8 km/h (5 mph).
For the front park assist system
to be active again without shifting
into R (Reverse), the park assist
button next to the shift lever must be
pressed. See
“
Turning the System
On and Off
”
later in this section.
UFRPA operates only at speeds
less than 8 km/h (5 mph).
When the vehicle is in N (Neutral),
the system may be active. If the
vehicle is in a car wash, the sensors
may detect objects in the car wash.
See
“
Turning the System On and
Off
”
later in this section to turn the
system off.
High-toned beeps from the front
speakers are for objects detected
near the front bumper. Low-toned
beeps from the rear speakers are
for objects detected near the rear
bumper. 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 liftgate level. Objects
must also be within 1.2 m (4 ft) in
front of the vehicle and 2.5 m (8 ft)
from the rear bumper. This distance
may be less during warmer or humid
weather.
