Blizzard Conditions
Being stuck in snow can be a
serious situation. Stay with the
vehicle unless there is help nearby.
If possible, use Roadside
Assistance. SeeRoadside
Assistance Program (Mexico) on
page 13‑7 orRoadside Assistance
Program (U.S. and Canada) on
page 13‑11. To get help and keep
everyone in the vehicle safe:
.Turn on the hazard warning
flashers.
.Tie a red cloth to an outside
mirror.
{WARNING
Snow can trap engine exhaust
under the vehicle. This may
cause exhaust gases to get
inside. Engine exhaust contains
carbon monoxide (CO) which
(Continued)
WARNING (Continued)
cannot be seen or smelled. It can
cause unconsciousness and even
death.
If the vehicle is stuck in the snow:
.Clear away snow from around
the base of your vehicle,
especially any that is blocking
the exhaust pipe.
.Check again from time to
time to be sure snow does
not collect there.
.Open a window about 5 cm
(2 in) on the side of the
vehicle that is away from the
wind to bring in fresh air.
.Fully open the air outlets on
or under the instrument
panel.
.Adjust the climate control
system to a setting that
circulates the air inside the
vehicle and set the fan speed(Continued)
WARNING (Continued)
to the highest setting. See
“Climate Control Systems” in
the Index.
For more information about
carbon monoxide, see Engine
Exhaust on page 9‑26.
To save fuel, run the engine for only
short periods as needed to warm
the vehicle and then shut the engine
off and close the window most of
the way to save heat. Repeat this
until help arrives but only when you
feel really uncomfortable from the
cold. Moving about to keep warm
also helps.
If it takes some time for help to
arrive, now and then when you run
the engine, push the accelerator
pedal slightly so the engine runs
faster than the idle speed. This
keeps the battery charged to restart
the vehicle and to signal for help
with the headlamps. Do this as little
as possible to save fuel.

9-44 Driving and Operating
WARNING (Continued)
speeds greater than 8 km/h
(5 mph). To prevent injury, death,
or vehicle damage, even with
parking assist, always check the
area around the vehicle and
check all mirrors before moving
forward or backing.
How the System Works
When the shift lever is moved into
R (Reverse), the sensors are
automatically turned on. A single
tone sounds to indicate the system
is working. After the vehicle is
shifted out of R (Reverse), the rear
sensors are turned off and the front
sensors (if equipped) stay on until
the vehicle is above a speed of 8
km/h (5 mph). For the front park
assist system to be active again
without shifting into R (Reverse), the
park assist button next to the radio
must be pressed. See“Turning the
System On and Off ”later in this
section. An obstacle is indicated by audible
beeps. The interval between the
beeps becomes shorter as the
vehicle gets closer to the obstacle.
When the distance is less than
30 cm (12 in) the beeping is a
continuous tone for five seconds.
Objects Detected by Both the
Front and Rear Sensors (If
Equipped)
In general, if objects are detected at
the same time near both the front
and rear bumpers while backing up,
the beeps only sound to indicate
that objects are close to the rear
bumper.
However, if an object is very close
to the front bumper while the vehicle
is backing up and at the same time
there is another object further not as
close to the rear bumper, then the
beeps only sound to indicate the
object that is closer to the front
bumper.
Turning the System On and Off
The URPA/UFRPA system can be
turned on and off using the park
assist button located next to the
radio.
The indicator light next to the park
assist button lights up when the
system is on and turns off when it
has been disabled.
When the system is off, a message
displays on the Driver Information
Center (DIC). The message
disappears after a short period
of time.
The system defaults to the on
setting each time the vehicle is
started.
