Object Detection Systems
Ultrasonic Rear Parking
Assist (URPA)
For vehicles with the Ultrasonic Rear Parking Assist
(URPA) system, it operates at speeds less than
8 km/h (5 mph), and assists the driver with parking and
avoiding objects while in R (Reverse). The sensors on
the rear bumper are used to detect the distance to an
object up to 2.5 m (8 ft) behind the vehicle, and at least
25.4 cm (10 in) off the ground.
{WARNING:
The Ultrasonic Rear Parking Assist (URPA)
system does not replace driver vision. It cannot
detect:
.Objects that are below the bumper,
underneath the vehicle, or if they are too close
or far from the vehicle
.Children, pedestrians, bicyclists, or pets.(Continued)
WARNING: (Continued)
If you do not use proper care before and while
backing; vehicle damage, injury, or death could
occur. Even with URPA, always check behind the
vehicle before backing up. While backing, be sure
to look for objects and check the vehicle's mirrors.
How the System Works
URPA comes on automatically when the shift lever is
moved into R (Reverse). A single tone sounds to
indicate the system is working.
URPA operates only at speeds less than
5 mph (8 km/h).
An obstacle is indicated by audible beeps. The interval
between the beeps becomes shorter as the vehicle gets
closer to the obstacle. When the distance is less than
30 cm (12 in) the beeps are continuous.
To be detected, objects must be at least 25.4 cm (10 in)
off the ground and below tailgate level. Objects must
also be within 2.5 m (8 ft) from the rear bumper. This
distance may be less during warmer or humid weather.

If the system is still disabled, after driving forward at
least 40 km/h (25 mph), take the vehicle to your dealer/
retailer.
Rear Vision Camera (RVC)
This vehicle may have a Rear Vision Camera system.
Read this entire section before using it.
{WARNING:
The Rear Vision Camera (RVC) system does not
replace driver vision. RVC does not:
.Detect objects that are outside the camera's
field of view, below the bumper, or underneath
the vehicle.
.Detect children, pedestrians, bicyclists,
or pets.
Do not back the vehicle by only looking at the
RVC screen, or use the screen during longer,
higher speed backing maneuvers or where there
could be cross-traffic. Your judged distances using
the screen will differ from actual distances. (Continued)
WARNING: (Continued)
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
RVC system, always check carefully before
backing up by checking behind and around the
vehicle.
Vehicles Without Navigation System
The rear vision camera system is designed to help the
driver when backing up by displaying a view of the area
behind the vehicle. When the key is in the ON/RUN
position and the driver shifts the vehicle into
R (Reverse), the video image automatically appears on
the inside rear view mirror. Once the driver shifts out of
R (Reverse), the video image automatically disappears
from the inside rear view mirror.
Turning the Rear Vision Camera System
Off or On
To turn off the rear vision camera system, press and
hold
z, located on the inside rearview mirror, until the
left indicator light turns off. The rear camera vision
display is now disabled.
3-45

To turn the rear vision camera system on again, press
and hold
zuntil the left indicator light illuminates. The
rear vision camera system display is now enabled and
the display will appear in the mirror normally.
Vehicles With Navigation System
The rear vision camera system is designed to help the
driver when backing up by displaying a view of the area
behind the vehicle. When the driver shifts the vehicle
into R (Reverse), the video image automatically
appears on the navigation screen. Once the driver shifts
out of R (Reverse), the navigation screen will go back to
the last screen that had been displayed, after a delay.
Turning the Rear Vision Camera System
On or Off
To turn the rear vision camera system on or off:
1. Shift into P (Park).
2. Press the MENU button to enter the configure menu options, then press the MENU hard key to
select Display or touch the Display screen button.
3. Select the Rear Camera Options screen button. The Rear Camera Options screen will display.
4. Select the Video screen button. When the Videoscreen button is highlighted the RVC system is on.
The delay that is received after shifting out of
R (Reverse) is approximately 10 seconds. The delay
can be cancelled by performing one of the following:
.Pressing a hard key on the navigation system.
.Shifting in to P (Park).
.Reach a vehicle speed of 5 mph (8 km/h).
There is a message on the rear vision camera screen
that states “Check Surroundings for Safety”.

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. 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 flash.
.A slow flash may indicate a loss of video signal,
or no video signal present during the reverse cycle.
.A fast flash 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 flash 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 flashing.
During any of these fault conditions, the display will be
blank and the indicator will continue to flash 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
flashing will turn off the video display along with the left
indicator light.

To remove or install cargo tie-downs at the front of the
bed, slide the corner cap towards the center of the bed
to expose the rail notches. To remove the corner cap,
pull either edge away from the rail.
To remove the system, loosen the toggle bolts on each
rail until they can be removed from the bed of the truck.
To replace the system, place the toggle bolts and rails
into their original locations and tighten them to a torque
setting of 12.5 ft lbs (17Y).
If the system is removed to install a bed liner, make
sure there is no bed liner material in the installation
points.
Notice: If cargo is tied down using the horizontal
slots on the top of the pickup box, the box could be
damaged. Using the horizontal slots on the top of
the pickup box for tie-down locations may cause
damage to the pickup box and would not be
covered by the vehicle warranty. Only use the
tie-down loops if the vehicle does not have the
cargo management system.Sunroof
On vehicles with a power sliding sunroof, the ignition
needs to be turned to RUN, or the Retained Accessory
Power (RAP) must be activated to open or close the
sunroof. When RAP is active, the sunroof will work for
10 minutes after the ignition is turned off, or until the
driver's door is opened. See Retained Accessory Power
(RAP)
on page 3‑24for more information.
