Ultrasonic Rear Parking
Assist (URPA)
Ultrasonic Rear Parking Assist can help you to
determine how close an object is to your rear bumper
within a given area, making parking easier.
The URPA display is
located inside the vehicle,
on the passenger's side rear
upper trim panel. It has
three color
-coded lights that
can be seen through the
rearview mirror or by
turning around.
URPA can be disabled by
pressing the URPA on/off
button located near the
climate control system
and radio.
How the System Works
URPA comes on automatically when the shift lever is
moved into REVERSE (R) and the vehicle speed is less
than 3 mph (5 km/h). When the system comes on,
the three lights on the display will illuminate to let you
know that the system is working. URPA senses how
close your vehicle is to an object. The distance is
determined by the four ultrasonic sensors located on the
rear bumper. When shifting into REVERSE (R) and an
object is detected, one of the following will occur:

2-98
A chime will sound the first time an object is detected.
URPA can detect objects 3 inches (7.6 cm) and wider,
and at least 10 inches (25.4 cm) tall, but it cannot detect
objects that are above the center of the Cadillac crest
badge. In order for the rear sensors to recognize an
object, it must be within operating range.If the URPA system is not functioning properly, the
display will flash red, indicating that there is a problem.
The light will also flash red while driving if a trailer or
trailer hitch ball mount is attached to your vehicle or if a
bicycle or object is on the back of, or hanging out of
your vehicle. The light will continue to flash until the
trailer or the object is removed and your vehicle is
driven forward at least 15 mph (25 km/h).
It may also flash red if the ultrasonic sensors are not
kept clean. So be sure to keep your rear bumper free of
mud, dirt, snow, ice and slush or the system may not
work properly. If after cleaning the rear bumper and
driving forward at least 15 mph (25 km/h), the display
continues to flash red, see your dealer. It may also flash
red if your vehicle is moving in REVERSE (R) at a
speed greater than 3 mph (5 km/h).
Other conditions that may affect system performance
include things like the vibrations from a jackhammer
or the compression of air brakes on a very large truck.
As always, drivers should use care when backing
up a vehicle. Always look behind you, being sure to
check for other vehicles, obstructions and blind spots.
For cleaning instructions, see ªCleaning Your Vehicleº
in the Index.

SCV automatically increases the volume, as necessary,
to overcome noise at any particular speed. The volume
level should always sound the same to you as you drive.
If you don't want to use SCV, turn the control all the
way down. Each notch on the control ring allows for
more volume compensation at faster vehicle speeds.

cassette tape through headphones while the driver listens
to the radio through the front speakers. The rear seat
passengers have control of the volume for each set of
headphones. Be aware that the front seat audio controls
always have priority over the RSA controls. If the front
seat passengers switch the source for the main radio to a
remote source, the RSA will play the same remote
source. The rear speakers will be muted when the RSA
power is turned on. You may operate the RSA functions
