to you or others.

Park Assist

The vehicle may be equipped
with Front and Rear Park
Assist (FRPA). Under certain
conditions, the Park Assist
system can assist the driver
during backing and parking
maneuvers when the vehicle is
driven at no more than 9 km/h
(6 mph). An illuminated
indicator in the Park Assist
button indicates the system is
ready.
Sensors located in the
bumpers measure the
distance between the vehicle
and objects using sonar
technology. These sensors are
designed to detect certain
objects up to 2.5 m (8 ft)
behind and 1.2 m (4 ft) in front
of your vehicle that are taller
than 25 cm (10 in).
Different environmental
conditions may affect whether
and how far the Park Assist
system can detect objects.
Keep the sensors clean of
mud, dirt, snow, ice, and slush;
and clean sensors after a car
wash in freezing
temperatures. Sensors that
are not clean may not detect
objects or may cause the
system to alert when not
required.
Warning
The Park Assist System is
no substitute for careful and
attentive driving. The Park
Assist system does not
detect children, pedestrians,
bicyclists, animals, or objects
located below the bumper or
that are too close or too far
from the vehicle. It is not
available at speeds greater
than 9 km/h (6 mph). To
prevent injury, death,
or vehicle damage, even with

Warning (Continued)
Park Assist, always check
the area around the vehicle
and check all mirrors before
moving forward or backing.
How the System Works
The vehicle may have a Park
Assist amphitheatre-like
display on the cluster with
bars that represent the
estimated location of a
detected object and the
vehicle s distance from the
object. As a detected object
becomes closer, more bars
light up and change color from
yellow to amber to red.
When an object is first
detected in the rear, one beep
will be heard from the rear,
or the driver's seat will pulse
two times, if equipped with
Safety Alert Seat. When an
object is very close, five beeps
will sound from the front or
rear (depending on the
object's location), or the
