Ultrasonic Front and Rear ParkingAssist (UFRPA)If your vehicle is equipped, the Ultrasonic Front andRear Parking Assist (UFRPA) system is designedto help you park. It operates only at speeds less than5 mph (8km/h). UFRPA helps make parking easier andhelps you avoid colliding with objects such as parkedvehicles. The UFRPA system detects objects thatare close to the vehicle which are at least 10 inches(25.4 cm) off the ground and below hood or trunk level.The system detects objects up to 4 feet (1.2 m) infront of the vehicle and up to 8 feet (2.5 m) behind yourvehicle. UFRPA determines how close these objectsare from your bumpers within this area. Four ultrasonicsensors on the front and rear bumpers are used todetect the distance to the object.{CAUTION:Even with the Ultrasonic Front and Rear ParkAssist system, the driver must check carefullybefore backing up or moving forward whileparking. The system does not operate abovespeeds of 5 mph (8 km/h). The system doesnot detect objects that are more than 4 feet(1.2 meters) in front of the vehicle and morethan 8 feet (2.5 meters) behind the vehicle.Also, the system does not detect objects thatare below your bumper, underneath yourvehicle, or some objects very close to thevehicle. The system is not designed to detectchildren, pedestrians, bicyclists, or pets.So, unless you check carefully behind and infront of your vehicle while you are parkingthey could be injured or killed.Whether or not you are using front and rearpark assist, always check carefully in front andbehind your vehicle before moving forward orbacking up and then watch closely as you do.3-38
