PARKING SENSORS
(where provided)
Parking sensors are located in the rear
bumper fig. 101and their function is to
inform the driver, through an intermittent
buzzer, about the presence of obstacles
behind 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 be-
comes more frequent. BUZZER WARNINGS
When the reverse gear is engaged an in-
termittent acoustic signal is automatically
activated.
The acoustic signal:
❒becomes louder as the reduction of dis-
tance 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 immediately if the
distance increases;
❒is constant if the distance is unvaried;
if this situation concerns the side sen-
sors, the buzzer will stop after about
3 seconds to avoid, for example, warn-
ing indications in the event of manoeu-
vres along walls.Detection distances
Central action radius 150 cm
Side action radius 60 cm
If several obstacles are detected, the con-
trol unit indicates the nearest one.
FAILURE INDICATIONS
Parking sensor failures, if any, will be in-
dicated when engaging reverse by the
turning on of the instrument panel warn-
ing light
ttogether with the message on
the multifunction display, where provided
(see section “Warning lights and mes-
sages”).

GENERAL WARNINGS
❒When parking, take the utmost care to
obstacles that may be set above or un-
der the sensors.
❒Objects set close to the car, under cer-
tain circumstances are not detected and
could therefore cause damages to the
car or be damaged.
❒Indications sent by the sensors can be
altered by dirt, snow or ice deposited
on the sensors or by ultrasound sys-
tems (e.g.: truck pneumatic brakes or
pneumatic hammers) set nearby the
car.
The sensor must be clean
from mud, dirt, snow or ice in
order for the system to work.
Be careful not to scratch or
damage the sensor while cleaning
them. Avoid using dry, rough or hard
cloths. Clean the sensors with clean
water with the addition of car sham-
poo if necessary.
The driver is always and on-
ly responsible for parking
and other dangerous manoeuvres.
Make sure that no-one is standing in
the area, especially children or ani-
mals. Parking sensors are designed to
assist drivers: in all cases, you must al-
ways pay the utmost attention during
potentially dangerous manoeuvres.
WARNINGOPERATION WITH TRAILER
Parking sensor operation is deactivated au-
tomatically when the trailer electric cable
plug is fitted into the car tow hook socket.
Sensors are reactivated when removing
the trailer cable plug.
In washing stations, clean sensors quickly
keeping the vapour jet/high pressure
washing nozzles at 10 cm at least from the
sensors.
