The CPA device assures mating in a mating direction between the connector and a second connector in the second position. The CPA device includes a body and a latching arm extending therefrom in the mating direction. The latching arm defines at least one chamfered surface portion facing at least partially in a force direction perpendicular to the mating direction and abutting against a stopping surface of the connector in the first position.
