278 Driving and operating
Caution
If the following happens, this
indicates that there is a
malfunction in the parking
assistance system. Consult a
repairer as soon as possible.
 The parking assistance system
warning lamp comes on while
driving.
 The alarm sounds for 6 times
repeatedly when there are no
obstacles around the rear
bumper.
Caution
Parking assistance system should
only be considered as a
supplementary function. The
driver must check the view.
The audible warning signal can be
different depending on the objects.
The audible warning signal might
not activate in case the sensor is
frozen or stained with dirt or mud.
There is a chance of malfunction of
the parking assistance system
when driving on uneven surfaces
such as woods, gravel road,
jagged road, or gradient.
Do not push, or scratch the surface
of the sensor. This will likely
damage the covering.
The parking assistance system
might not recognise sharp objects,
thick winter clothes or sponges
which absorb the frequency.
When receiving other ultrasonic
signals (metal sound or air braking
noises from heavy commercial
vehicles), the parking assistance
system may not work properly.
Clean dirty sensors with a soft
sponge and clean water.
You should continue to utilise the
mirrors or turning your head.
Normal precautions when
reversing should be maintained.
Do not press or shock the sensors
by hitting or directing a high
pressure water gun directly at them
while washing, or the sensors will
be damaged.
In the car park, the upper portion of
the vehicle can be hit before the
sensor operation, so check with
outside rearview mirrors or by
turning your head during parking.
