How the System Works

Unless disabled, the URPA will turn on automatically
when the shift lever is moved into REVERSE (R). When
the system turns on, the three lights on the display will
illuminate for one and a half seconds to let you know
that the system is working. If your vehicle is moving
in REVERSE (R) at a speed greater than 3 mph
(5 km/h), the red light will flash to remind you that
the system does not work at speed greater than
3 mph (5 km/h).

URPA can be turned off by
pressing the rear park aid
disable switch located
in the overhead console
switchbank. While the
system is disabled,
an indicator light will be lit
on the switch. You will
not see any lights on the
rear display if the switch is
in the off position.
If an object is detected at a REVERSE (R) speed of
less than 3 mph (5 km/h), one of the following will occur:

In order for the rear sensors to recognize an object,
it must be within detection range behind the vehicle.
