Ultrasonic Rear Parking Assist
(URPA)
Your vehicle may be equipped with Ultrasonic Rear
Parking Assist (URPA). This system can help you
to determine how close an object is to your rear bumper
within a given area, making parking easier.
{
CAUTION:
Even with the Ultrasonic Rear Park Assist
system, the driver must check carefully before
backing up. The system does not operate above
typical backing speeds of 3 mph (5 km/h) while
parking. And, the system doesn’t detect objects
that are more than 5 feet (1.5 meters) behind the
vehicle.
CAUTION: (Continued)
CAUTION: (Continued)
So, unless you check carefully behind you
before and when you back up, you could strike
children, pedestrians, bicyclists or pets behind
you, and they could be injured or killed.
Whether or not you are using Rear Park Assist,
always check carefully behind your vehicle
before you back up and then watch closely
as you do.
The URPA display is
located inside the vehicle,
above the rear window.
It has three color-coded
lights that can be seen
through the rearview mirror
or by turning around.
