194 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE
WARNING!
• Drivers must be careful when backing up, even
when using the Rear Park Assist. Always check
carefully behind your vehicle, and be sure to check
for pedestrians, animals, other vehicles, obstruc-
tions, or blind spots before backing up. You are
responsible for the safety of your surroundings
and must continue to pay attention while backing
up. Failure to do so can result in serious injury or
death.
• Before using the Rear Park Assist, it is strongly
recommended that the ball mount and hitch ball
assembly be disconnected from the vehicle, when
the vehicle is not used for towing. Failure to do so
can result in injury or damage to vehicles or
obstacles, because the hitch ball will be much
closer to the obstacle than the rear fascia when the
warning display turns the red LEDs on. Also, the
sensors could detect the ball mount and hitch ball
assembly, depending on its size and shape, giving

a false indication that an obstacle is behind the
vehicle.
