Ultrasonic Rear Parking Assist (URPA)
Ultrasonic Rear Parking Assist can help you to determine
how close an object is to your rear bumper within a given
area, making parking easier.
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.
How the System Works
URPA comes on automatically when the shift lever is
moved into REVERSE (R) and the vehicle speed is
less than 3 MPH (5 km/h). When the system comes on,
the three lights on the display will illuminate to let you
know that the system is working. URPA senses how
close your vehicle is to an object. The distance is
determined by the four ultrasonic sensors located on
the rear bumper. When you shift into REVERSE (R) and an object is
detected, the following will occur in sequence
depending on the distance from the object:

At 5 feet (1.5 m) 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
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.

2-115
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).
It may also flash red if the ultrasonic sensors are not
kept clean. So be sure to keep your rear bumper free
of mud, dirt, snow, ice and slush or materials such as
paint or the system may not work properly. If after
cleaning the rear bumper and driving forward at least
15 mph (25 km/h), the display continues to flash red,
see your dealer. For cleaning instructions, see ªCleaning,
Outside of Your Vehicleº in the Index.It may also flash red if your vehicle is moving in
REVERSE (R) at a speed greater than 3 mph (5 km/h).
Other conditions that may affect system performance
include things like the vibrations from a jackhammer or
the compression of air brakes on a very large truck.
As always, drivers should use care when backing up a
vehicle. Always look behind you, being sure to check
for other vehicles, obstructions and blind spots.

(Recirculation): Press this button to limit the
amount of outside air entering your vehicle. This is
helpful when you are trying to cool the air quickly or
limit odors entering your vehicle. Press this button again
to turn off the recirculation feature.
If you notice the windows fogging, press the
recirculation button to exit the recirculation mode.
Recirculation is not available in the defrost mode.
A/C (Air Conditioning): Press this button to turn the
air conditioning compressor on and off. The system will
cool and dehumidify the air inside the vehicle.
When the compressor is off, A/C OFF appears on the
climate control panel display. Press the button again and
the compressor will turn back on.
The A/C OFF feature is not available in the
defrost mode.
AUTO (Automatic): The AUTO button will turn on the
system and automatically adjust the fan speed, air
delivery mode and temperature to your previously
programmed settings.When the system is set for automatic operation, sensors
will control the air delivery mode. Air will come from
the floor ducts, the instrument panel or windshield
outlets. The fan speed will vary as the system maintains
the selected temperature setting.
To find your comfort zone, start with the 75
F (24
C)
setting and allow about 30 minutes for the system to
regulate. Turn the TEMP knob to adjust the temperature if
necessary. If you choose 60
F (16
C), the system will
remain at that maximum cooling setting and will not
regulate fan speed. If you choose 90
F (32
C), the system
will remain at that maximum heating setting and will not
regulate fan speed. Choosing either maximum setting will
not cause the system to heat or cool any faster.
With the automatic setting, the air conditioning
compressor cycles on and off when needed to cool the
air. In cold weather, when the system senses the need for
heat, the airflow will be directed out the floor ducts. As
the interior temperature approaches a desired setting, the
fan speed will decrease. To maintain interior comfort,
the airflow may move to the instrument panel air outlets
and floor ducts. On bright sunny days in cold weather,
the airflow may come out of the instrument panel outlets
to maintain comfort and prevent stuffiness.

Audio Systems
Your audio system has been designed to operate easily
and give years of listening pleasure. You will get the
most enjoyment out of it if you acquaint yourself with it
first. Find out what your audio system can do and how
to operate all of its controls to be sure you're getting the
most out of the advanced engineering that went into it.
Your vehicle has a feature called Retained Accessory
Power (RAP). With RAP, you can play your audio
system even after the ignition is turned off. See
ªRetained Accessory Powerº in the Index.
Setting the Clock
Press and hold HR or MN until the time display begins

Cassette Tape Messages
If an error occurs while trying to play a cassette tape, it
could be for one of the following reasons:

The cassette tape is tight and the cassette player
cannot turn the hubs of the tape. Hold the cassette
tape with the open end down and try turning the right
hub counterclockwise with a pencil. Flip the tape
over and repeat. If the hubs do not turn easily, your
cassette tape may be damaged and should not be
used in the player. Try a new tape to be sure your
player is working properly.

The cassette tape is broken. (Check to see if your
tape is broken. Try a new tape.)
CLEAN TAPE: If this message appears on the display,
the cassette tape player needs to be cleaned. It will still
play tapes, but you should clean it as soon as possible to
prevent damage to the tapes and player. See ªCare of
Your Cassette Tape Playerº in the Index.
If any error occurs repeatedly or if an error can't be
corrected, contact your dealer.
