Overhead Console Switchbank
The overhead console switchbank is located in the
overhead console. This switchbank may include
the following:
Power Sliding Door(s)/Override Switch(es).
SeePower Sliding Door (PSD) on page 121.
Power Rear Quarter Windows. SeePower
Rear Quarter Windows on page 132.
Ultrasonic Rear Parking Assist (URPA)
Disable Switch. SeeUltrasonic Rear Parking
Assist (URPA) on page 200.
If your vehicle does not have some of these
options, there will be a blank.
Ultrasonic Rear Parking
Assist (URPA)
If your vehicle is equipped with the Ultrasonic
Rear Parking Assist (URPA) system, it 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.

{CAUTION:
The Ultrasonic Rear Park Assist (URPA)
system does not replace driver vision.
URPA does not:
Operate above speeds of 3 mph
(5 km/h).
Detect objects more than 5 feet
(1.5 meters) behind the vehicle. This
distance may be less during warmer
or humid weather.
Detect objects that are below the
bumper, underneath the vehicle, or
that are very close to the vehicle.
Detect children, pedestrians,
bicyclists, or pets.
So if you do not use proper care before
backing up, you could hit a vehicle, child,
pedestrian, bicyclist, or pet, resulting in
vehicle damage, injury, or death. Even
though the vehicle has the URPA system,
always check carefully before backing up
by checking behind your vehicle.URPA can be turned off
by pressing the rear
park aid disable switch
located in the
overhead console
switchbank.
While 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.

How the System Works
Unless disabled, the URPA will turn on
automatically when the shift lever is moved into
REVERSE (R). When the system turns on,
the three lights on the display will illuminate for
one and a half seconds to let you know that
the system is working. If your vehicle is moving in
REVERSE (R) at a speed greater than 3 mph
(5 km/h), the red light will ash to remind you that
the system does not work at speed greater
than 3 mph (5 km/h).
If an object is detected at a REVERSE (R) speed
of less than 3 mph (5 km/h), one of the following
will occur:
Description English Metric
amber light 5 ft 1.5 m
amber/amber lights 40 in 1.0 m
amber/amber/red lights &
continuous chime20 in 0.5 m
amber/amber/red lights
ashing & continuous
chime1 ft 0.3 m
A chime will sound the rst time an object is
detected between 20 inches (0.5 m) and 5 feet
(1.5 m) away.URPA cannot detect objects that are above liftgate
level. In order for the rear sensors to recognize
an object, it must be within detection range behind
the vehicle.
When the System Does Not Seem to Work
Properly
The light may ash red when the vehicle is in
REVERSE (R) if the ultrasonic sensors are not kept
clean. So be sure to keep your rear bumper free of
mud, dirt, snow, ice and slush. 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. If
after cleaning the rear bumper and then driving
forward at least 15 mph (25 km/h), the display
continues to ash red, see your retailer.
If a trailer was attached to your vehicle, or a
bicycle or an object was on the back of, or hanging
out of your liftgate during your last drive cycle,
the light may also ash red. The light will continue
to ash whenever in REVERSE (R) until your
vehicle is driven forward at least 15 mph (25 km/h)
without any obstructions behind the vehicle.
For cleaning instructions, seeWashing Your
Vehicle on page 505.

Warning Lights, Gages, and
Indicators
This part describes the warning lights and gages
that may be on your vehicle. The pictures will
help you locate them.
Warning lights and gages can signal that
something is wrong before it becomes serious
enough to cause an expensive repair or
replacement. Paying attention to your warning
lights and gages could also save you or others
from injury.
Warning lights come on when there may be or is a
problem with one of your vehicle’s functions. As
you will see in the details on the next few pages,
some warning lights come on brie y when you
start the engine just to let you know they’re
working. If you are familiar with this section, you
should not be alarmed when this happens.Gages can indicate when there may be or is a
problem with one of your vehicle’s functions. Often
gages and warning lights work together to let
you know when there’s a problem with your
vehicle.
When one of the warning lights comes on and
stays on when you are driving, or when one of the
gages shows there may be a problem, check
the section that tells you what to do about
it. Please follow this manual’s advice. Waiting to
do repairs can be costly — and even dangerous.
So please get to know your warning lights and
gages. They’re a big help.
