194 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE
WARNING!
Drivers must be careful when backing up, even
when using the Rear Park Assist System. Always
check carefully behind your vehicle, and be sure to
check for pedestrians, animals, other vehicles, ob-
structions, 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 system, 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.
