The URPA display is located inside the vehicle, above the rear window. It has three color-coded lights that can be seen through the rearview mirror or by turning around. The first time an object is detected while in REVERSE (R), a chime will sound and the following will occur in sequence, depending on the distance from the object: • At 5 feet (1.5 m) a chime will sound and one amber light will be lit; • at 40 inches (1.0 m) both amber lights will be lit; • at 20 inches (0.5 m) a continuous chime will sound and all three lights (amber/amber/red) will be lit; and • at 1 foot (0.3 m) a continuous chime will sound and How the System Works URPA comes on automatically when the shift lever is moved into REVERSE (R). When the system comes on, the three lights on the display will briefly illuminate to let you know that the system is working. If your vehicle is moving in REVERSE (R) at a speed greater than 3 mph (5 km/h), the red light will flash to remind you the system does not work at this speed. all three lights (amber/amber/red) will flash. 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 trunk level. 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 is attached to your vehicle, or a bicycle or object is on the back of, or hanging out of your trunk. 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). 3-28
