under DIC Operation and Displays
(With DIC Buttons) on page 3-45
or DIC Operation and Displays
(Without DIC Buttons) on page 3-50
for more information.
When the System Does Not
Seem to Work Properly
If the URPA system does not
activate due to a temporary
condition, the message PARK ASSIST OFF displays on the DIC
and a red light will be shown on the
rear URPA display when the shift
lever is moved into R (Reverse).
This may occur under the following
conditions:
The driver disables the system.
The ultrasonic sensors are
not clean. Keep the vehicle’s rear
bumper free of mud, dirt, snow,
ice and slush. For cleaning
instructions, see
Washing Your
Vehicle on page 5-87 .
A trailer was attached to the
vehicle, or a bicycle or an
object was hanging out of the
liftgate during the last drive cycle,
the red light may illuminate in
the rear display. Once the
attached object is removed,
URPA will return to normal
operation.
A tow bar is attached to the
vehicle.
The vehicle’s bumper is
damaged. Take the vehicle to
your dealer/retailer to repair
the system.
Other conditions may affect
system performance, such
as vibrations from a jackhammer
or the compression of air
brakes on a very large truck.
If the system is still disabled, after
driving forward at least 15 mph
(25 km/h), take the vehicle to your
dealer/retailer.

When the System Does Not
Seem To Work Properly
The rear vision camera system
might not work properly or display a
clear image if:
The RVC is turned off. See
“Turning the Rear Camera System
On or Off” earlier in this section.
It is dark.
The sun or the beam of headlights
is shining directly into the
camera lens.
Ice, snow, mud, or anything else
builds up on the camera lens.
Clean the lens, rinse it with water,
and wipe it with a soft cloth.
The back of the vehicle is in an
accident, the position and
mounting angle of the camera can
change or the camera can be
affected. Be sure to have the
camera and its position and
mounting angle checked at your
dealer/retailer.
There are extreme temperature
changes.The rear vision camera system
display in the rearview mirror may
turn off or not appear as expected
due to one of the following
conditions. If this occurs the left
indicator light on the mirror will ash.
A slow ash may indicate a
loss of video signal, or no
video signal present during the
reverse cycle.
A fast ash may indicate that the
display has been on for the
maximum allowable time during a
reverse cycle, or the display has
reached an Over Temperature
limit.
The fast ash conditions are used
to protect the video device from
high temperature conditions.
Once conditions return to normal
the device will reset and the green
indicator will stop ashing.During any of these fault conditions,
the display will be blank and the
indicator will continue to ash
as long as the vehicle is in
R (Reverse) or until the conditions
return to normal.
Pressing and holding
zwhen the
left indicator light is ashing will
turn off the video display along with
the left indicator light.

Using Cruise Control on Hills
How well the cruise control will work
on hills depends upon the vehicle
speed, load, and the steepness of
the hills. When going up steep hills,
you might have to step on the
accelerator pedal to maintain the
vehicle speed. When going downhill,
you might have to brake or shift to a
lower gear to keep the vehicle speed
down. When the brakes are applied
the cruise control is disengaged.
Ending Cruise Control
There are three ways to end cruise
control:
Step lightly on the brake pedal.
Press the[button.
Press theTbutton.

The cruise control set speed
memory is erased when the cruise
control or the ignition is turned off.

Delayed Headlamps
Delayed headlamps provide a
period of exterior lighting as you
leave the area around your vehicle.
This feature is activated when the
headlamps are on due to the
automatic headlamps control feature,
and when the ignition is turned off.
The headlamps remain on until the
exterior lamps control is moved to
the parking lamps position or until
the pre-selected delayed headlamp
lighting period has ended.
If the ignition is turned off with the
headlamps switch in the parking
lamps or headlamps position, the
delayed headlamps cycle will not
occur.
To disable the delayed headlamps
feature or change the time of delay,
seeDIC Vehicle Customization (With
DIC Buttons) on page 3-65.
Daytime Running
Lamps (DRL)/Automatic
Headlamp System
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) can
make it easier for others to see the
front of your vehicle during the day.
Fully functional daytime running
lamps are required on all vehicles
rst sold in Canada.
The DRL system makes either the
low-beam headlamps come on at a
reduced brightness or the DRL lights,
for vehicles with High Intensity
Discharge (HID) headlamps when
the following conditions are met:
The ignition is in the ON/RUN
position.
The exterior lamps control is
in AUTO.
The engine is running.
3-12 Instrument Panel
ProCarManuals.com

When the DRL are on, the regular
headlamps, taillamps, sidemarker,
and other lamps will not be on.
The instrument panel and cluster
will also not be lit.
For vehicles with HID headlamps,
if the DRL are on and the left or right
turn signal lamp is turned on, the
left or right DRL will go off.
The headlamps automatically
change from DRL to the regular
headlamps depending on the
darkness of the surroundings.
The other lamps that come on
with the headlamps will also
come on.
When it is bright enough outside,
the headlamps will go off and
the DRL will come on.
The regular headlamp system
should be turned on when needed.
Do not cover the light sensor on
top of the instrument panel because
it works with the DRL.Fog Lamps

Warning Lights,
Gages, and Indicators
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
the warning lights and gages could
prevent injury.
Warning lights come on when there
may be or is a problem with one
of the vehicle’s functions. Some
warning lights come on briey when
the engine is started to indicate they
are working.Gages can indicate when there may
be or is a problem with one of the
vehicle’s functions. Often gages
and warning lights work together to
indicate a problem with the vehicle.
When one of the warning lights
comes on and stays on while driving,
or when one of the gages shows
there may be a problem, check the
section that explains what to do.
Follow this manual’s advice. Waiting
to do repairs can be costly and even
dangerous.

Passenger Airbag Status
Indicator
The vehicle has a passenger
sensing system. SeePassenger
Sensing System on page 1-55
for important safety information.
The instrument panel has a
passenger airbag status indicator.When the vehicle is started, the
passenger airbag status indicator
will light ON and OFF, or the symbol
for on and off, for several seconds
as a system check. If you are using
remote start to start the vehicle from
a distance, if equipped, you may not
see the system check. Then, after
several more seconds, the status
indicator will light either ON or OFF,
or either the on or off symbol to let
you know the status of the right front
passenger frontal airbag.
If the word ON or the on symbol is
lit on the passenger airbag status
indicator, it means that the right front
passenger frontal airbag is enabled
(may inate).
If the word OFF or the off symbol
is lit on the passenger airbag
status indicator, it means that the
passenger sensing system has
turned off the right front passenger
frontal airbag.If, after several seconds, both
status indicator lights remain on,
or if there are no lights at all, there
may be a problem with the lights
or the passenger sensing system.
See your dealer/retailer for service.
{CAUTION
If the airbag readiness light ever
comes on and stays on, it means
that something may be wrong with
the airbag system. To help avoid
injury to yourself or others, have
the vehicle serviced right away.
