Ultrasonic Parking Assist

For vehicles with this feature, it uses sensors on the rear bumper to detect objects while parking the vehicle. It operates at speeds less than 8 km/h (5 mph) while in R (Reverse). URPA uses audio beeps and three color-coded lights, located on the rear shelf, below the rear window, to provide distance and system information.

Keep the sensors on the vehicle’s rear bumper clean to ensure proper operation.

The system can be disabled through the Driver Information Center (DIC).

See Ultrasonic Rear Parking Assist (URPA) for more information.
