Ultrasonic Rear Parking Assist (URPA) The Ultrasonic Rear Parking Assist (URPA) system is designed to help you park, while the vehicle is in REVERSE (R). It operates only at very low speeds, less than 3 mph (5 km/h). URPA can help make parking easier and to help you avoid colliding with objects such as parked vehicles. The URPA system can detect objects up to 5 feet (1.5 m) behind the vehicle, and tell you how close these objects are from your rear bumper. Your vehicle's URPA operates when the shift lever is moved into REVERSE (R) and the vehicle speed is less than 3 mph (5 km/h). Four ultrasonic sensors located at the rear bumper are used to detect the distance to the object. The URPA display is located inside the vehicle, near the rear window. It has three color-coded lights used to provide distance and system information to the driver. If children, bicycles, or pets are behind your vehicle, RPA won't tell you they are there. You could strike them and they could be injured or killed. Whether or not you are using URPA, check carefully behind your vehicle and then watch closely whenever you back up. URPA can be turned off by pressing the rear park aid disable switch located in the instrument panel switchbank. When the system is disabled an indicator light will be lit on the switch. You will not see any lights on the rear display if the switch is in the off position. 3-22
