Park Tilt Mirrors If the vehicle has this feature, the passenger and/or driver outside mirror tilts to a preselected position when the vehicle is in R (Reverse). This allows the driver to view the curb when parallel parking. When the vehicle is shifted out of R (Reverse) and after a five-second delay, the mirrors return to their original position. Outside Heated Mirrors = (Rear Window Defogger): Press to heat the mirrors. See "Rear Window Defogger" under Dual Climate Control System on page 3-24 for more information. Object Detection Systems Ultrasonic Rear Parking Assist (URPA) For vehicles with the URPA system, it operates at speeds less than 5mph (8 km/h), and assists the driver with parking and avoiding objects while in R (Reverse). The sensors on the rear bumper are used to detect the distance to an object up to 8 feet (2.5 m) behind the vehicle, and at least 10 inches (25.4 cm) off the ground. Outside Convex Mirror { CAUTION: A convex mirror can make things (like other vehicles) look farther away than they really are. If you cut too sharply into the right lane, you could hit a vehicle on the right. Check the inside mirror or glance over your shoulder before changing lanes. The passenger side mirror is convex shaped. A convex mirror's surface is curved so more can be seen from the driver seat. 2-54
