Rear Park Assist Warning Display
The Rear Park Assist Warning Display, located in the
headliner near the flipper glass, provides both visible and
audible warnings to indicate the distance between the
rear fascia and the detected obstacle.When the ignition is turned to the ON position, the
warning display will turn ON all of its LEDs for approxi-
mately one second. Each side of the warning display has
six yellow and two red LEDs. The vehicle is close to the
obstacle when the red LED is ON.
The system illuminates the two inner most yellow LEDs
when it is ON and there are no obstacles being detected.
The following chart shows the warning display operation
when the system is detecting an obstacle:

WARNING!
•Drivers must be careful when backing up, even
when using the Rear Park Assist. Always check
carefully behind your vehicle, look behind you,
and be sure to check for pedestrians, animals,
other vehicles, obstructions, and blind spots be-
fore backing up. You are responsible for safety and
must continue to pay attention to your surround-
ings. Failure to do so can result in serious injury or
death.
(Continued)
WARNING! (Continued)
•Before using the Rear Park Assist, it is strongly
recommended that the ball mount and hitch ball
assembly is disconnected from the vehicle when
the vehicle is not used for towing. Failure to do so
can result in injury or damage to vehicles or
obstacles because the hitch ball will be much
closer to the obstacle than the rear fascia when the
warning display turns the red LEDs ON. Also, the
sensors could detect the ball mount and hitch ball
assembly, depending on its size and shape, giving
a false indication that an obstacle is behind the
vehicle.
