{Warning
The camera(s) do not display children,

bumper, or under the vehicle. Shown
distances may be different from actual
distances. Do not drive or park the
vehicle using only these camera(s).
Always check behind and around the
vehicle before driving. Failure to use
proper care may result in injury, death,
or vehicle damage.
Park Assist
With RPA, as the vehicle backs up at speeds
of less than 8 km/h (5 mph), the sensors on
the rear bumper may detect objects up to
2.5 m (8 ft) behind the vehicle within a zone

Driving and Operating 223
25 cm (10 in) high off the ground and below
bumper level. These detection distances may
be shorter during warmer or humid weather.
Blocked sensors will not detect objects and
can also cause false detections. Keep the
sensors clean of mud, dirt, snow, ice, and
slush; and clean sensors after a car wash in
freezing temperatures.
{Warning
The Park Assist system does not detect
children, pedestrians, bicyclists, animals,
or objects located below the bumper or
that are too close or too far from the
vehicle. It is not available at speeds
greater than 8 km/h (5 mph). To prevent
injury, death, or vehicle damage, even
with Park Assist, always check the area
around the vehicle and check all mirrors
before moving forward or backing.
The instrument cluster may have a Park
Assist display with bars that show“distance
to object” and object location information
for RPA. As the object gets closer, more bars
light up and the bars change color from
yellow to amber to red.
When an object is first detected in the rear,
one beep will be heard from the rear. When
an object is very close (<0.6 m (2 ft) in the
vehicle rear), five beeps will sound from
the rear.
Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)
If equipped, RCTA displays a red warning
triangle with a left or right pointing arrow
on the RVC screen to warn of traffic coming
from the left or right. This system detects
objects coming from up to 20 m (65 ft) from
the left or right side of the vehicle. When an object is detected, three beeps sound
from the left or right, depending on the
direction of the detected vehicle.

When the System Does Not Seem to
Work Properly
SBZA displays may not come on when
passing a vehicle quickly or for a stopped
vehicle. SBZA may alert to objects attached
to the vehicle, such as a bicycle, or object
extending out to either side of the vehicle.
This is normal system operation; the vehicle
does not need service.
SBZA may not always alert the driver to
vehicles in the side blind zone, especially in
wet conditions. The system does not need
to be serviced. The system may light up due
to guardrails, signs, trees, shrubs, and other
non-moving objects. This is normal system
operation; the vehicle does not need service.
SBZA may not operate when the SBZA
sensors in the left or right corners of the
rear bumper are covered with mud, dirt,
snow, ice, or slush, or in heavy rainstorms.
For cleaning instructions, see "Washing the
Vehicle" underExterior Care0283. If the DIC
still displays the system unavailable
message after cleaning both sides of the
vehicle toward the rear corners of the
vehicle, see your dealer. If the SBZA displays do not light up when
vehicles are in the blind zone and the
system is clean, the system may need
service. Take the vehicle to your dealer.
When SBZA is disabled for any reason other
than the driver turning it off, the Side Blind
Zone Alert On option will not be available
on the personalization menu.
