PARKING SENSORS (where provided)
The parking sensors are located on the rear bumper and their function is to
inform the driver, through an intermittent buzzer, about the presence of
obstacles in the rear part of the car.
ACTIVATION
The sensors are automatically activated when the reverse gear is
engaged.
As the distance from the obstacle behind the car decreases, the acoustic
alarm becomes more frequent.
BUZZER WARNINGS
When the reverse gear is engaged an intermittent acoustic signal is
automatically activated.
The acoustic signal:
❒ becomes louder as the reduction of distance between the car and the
obstacle decreases;
❒ becomes continuous when the distance between the car and the
obstacle is less that 30 cm and stops if the distance raises;
❒ is constant if the distance is unvaried. If this situation takes place for
side sensors, the signal is stopped after about 3 seconds to prevent
sound indications when performing manoeuvres near walls.
Direction distances
The central detecting range varies according to car engine type/set-up
version: detection range is 140 cm. For small size obstacles (or in case of
parking deterrent blocks that are round shaped) it is 70 cm. Side
detecting range is 60 cm.
If several obstacles are detected, the control unit indicates the nearest
one.
