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.
The ultrasonic sensors need to be kept clean.
So, be sure to keep your vehicle’s rear bumper
free of mud, dirt, snow, ice, and slush. For
cleaning instructions, seeWashing Your
Vehicle on page 482. If the DIC still displays the
PARK ASSIST OFF message after cleaning the
bumper and driving forward at a speed of at
least 15 mph (25 km/h), see your dealer/retailer.
Other conditions that may affect system
performance include vibrations from a
jackhammer or the compression of air brakes
on a very large truck or other mechanical
devices that interfere with URPA performance.
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.
If the vehicle bumper is damaged, the URPA
system may not work properly. Take the vehicle
to your dealer/retailer to repair the system.
Accessory Power Outlet(s)
The accessory power outlets can be used to
connect electrical equipment such as a cellular
phone or CB radio.
Your vehicle may have four accessory power
outlets. They are located on the instrument panel
below the climate controls, inside the front
center console storage bin, at the rear of the
center console, and in the rear cargo area.
To use the outlets, remove the cover. When not in
use, always cover the outlet with the protective cap.
Notice:Leaving electrical equipment on for
extended periods will drain the battery. Always
turn off electrical equipment when not in
use and do not plug in equipment that exceeds
the maximum amperage rating of 20 amperes.
