How the System Works when Backing
If the shift lever is in REVERSE (R), URPA detects
objects close to the rear bumper. The rst time an
object is detected a single beep will sound. If an
object is detected at a REVERSE (R) speed
between 0 mph (0 km/h) and 5 mph (8 km/h), the
following describes what will occur based on your
distance to a detected object located behind the
vehicle:
At distances between 40 inches (1 m) and
8 ft (2.5 m), a single amber light will come on.
At distances between 23 inches (0.6 m) and
40 inches (1 m), both amber lights will be on.
At distances between 12 inches (0.3 m)
and 23 inches (0.6 m), all three lights
(amber/amber/red) will be on.
At distances less than 12 inches (0.3 m),
a beeping sound will repeat for a short time and
all three lights (amber/amber/red) will ash.
When the System Does Not Seem to
Work Properly
If the URPA system will not activate due to a
temporary condition, the message PARKING
ASSIST OFF will be displayed on the DIC screen
and a red light will come on the URPA display
when the shift lever is moved into REVERSE (R).
This occurs under the following conditions:
The driver disables the system.
The parking brake pedal is depressed.
A trailer was attached to your vehicle, or a
bicycle or an object was hanging out of
your trunk during your last drive when you
turned off the vehicle. If the attached objects
are removed from your vehicle before the start
of your next drive, the system will return to
normal operation unless an object is detected
when the vehicle is shifted into REVERSE (R).
If this occurs, URPA assumes the object is still
attached, so you will have to wait until the
vehicle is driven forward above 15 mph
(25 km/h) before URPA will return to normal
operation.

Filling a Portable Fuel Container
{CAUTION:
Never ll a portable fuel container while
it is in your vehicle. Static electricity

Dispense gasoline only into approved
containers.
Do not ll a container while it is inside a
vehicle, in a vehicle’s trunk, pickup
bed, or on any surface other than the
ground.
Bring the ll nozzle in contact with the
inside of the ll opening before
operating the nozzle. Contact should
be maintained until the lling is
complete.
Do not smoke while pumping gasoline.
Checking Things Under
the Hood
{CAUTION:
An electric fan under the hood can start up
and injure you even when the engine is not
running. Keep hands, clothing, and tools
away from any underhood electric fan.
{CAUTION:
Things that burn can get on hot engine
parts and start a re. These include
liquids like fuel, oil, coolant, brake uid,
windshield washer and other uids, and
plastic or rubber. You or others could be
burned. Be careful not to drop or spill
things that will burn onto a hot engine.
