Cadillac 2008 DTS Automobile User Manual


 
The front display is located on top of the instrument
panel to the right of the driver. The front display will have
either three or six lights to provide distance and system
information. With Adaptive Cruise control (ACC), it will
have three lights along with the ACC lights. Without ACC,
it will have six lights. High-toned beeps from the front
speakers are for objects detected near the front bumper.
The rear display is located near the rear window
and can be seen by looking over your right shoulder.
The rear display uses three color-coded lights to provide
distance and system information. Low-toned beeps
from the rear speakers are for the rear bumper.
How the System Works
UFRPA comes on automatically when the shift lever is
moved out of PARK (P). The system does not work at a
forward or reverse speed greater than 5 mph (8 km/h).
To be detected, objects must be at least 10 inches
(25.4 cm) off the ground and below hood or trunk level.
Objects must also be within 4 feet (1.2 m) in front of your
vehicle and 8 feet (2.5 m) from your rear bumper. This
distance may be less during warmer or humid weather.
When backing, if objects are detected at the same time
near both the front and rear bumpers, both color-coded
light displays will notify you of objects close to each
bumper. If there are objects detected near both bumpers,
the beeps will only be sounded to notify that objects are
close to the rear bumper. However, if while you are
backing and an object comes within 1 ft (0.3 m) of the
front bumper, and at the same time there is another
object further than 1 ft (0.3 m) from the rear bumper,
then the beeps will only be sounded to notify you of
the closer object that is near the front bumper.
The system can be disabled using the Driver Information
Center (DIC). See “Parking Assist” under DIC Operation
and Displays on page 3-69 for more information.
