Object Detection Systems
Ultrasonic Rear Parking
Assist (URPA)
For vehicles with the URPA system, it operates at
speeds less than 8 km/h (5 mph), and assists the driver
with parking and avoiding objects while in R (Reverse).
The sensors on the rear bumper are used to detect the
distance to an object up to 2.5 m (8 ft) behind the
vehicle, and at least 25 cm (10 in) off the ground.
{ WARNING:
The Ultrasonic Rear Parking Assist (URPA)
system does not replace driver vision. It cannot
detect:
. Objects that are below the bumper,
underneath the vehicle, or if they are too close
or far from the vehicle
. Children, pedestrians, bicyclists, or pets.
If you do not use proper care before and while

seen by looking over your
right shoulder.
URPA uses three color-coded lights to provide distance
and system information.
How the System Works
URPA comes on automatically when the shift lever is
moved into R (Reverse). The rear display briefly
