OPERATION WITH TRAILER
The system is deactivated automatically
when the trailer electric cable plug is fit-
ted into the car tow hook socket.
The sensors are automatically enabled
again when the trailer cable plug is re-
moved.It is vital that the sensors are
always clean in order for the
system to work properly.
Take great care when clean-
ing the sensors not to scratch or dam-
age them; avoid using dry, rough or
hard cloths. Clean the sensors with
clean water with the addition of car
shampoo if necessary. In washing sta-
tions, clean the sensors quickly, keep-
ing the steam jet/high pressure wash-
ing nozzles at least 10 cm away from
the sensors.
The ultimate responsibility
when parking and carrying
out other dangerous manoeuvres still
rests with the driver. Always make
sure that there are no people, ani-
mals or objects in the way when car-
rying out these manoeuvres. Parking
sensors are designed to assist drivers:
in all cases, you must always pay the
utmost attention during potentially
dangerous manoeuvres, even when
these are carried out a low speed.
WARNING
GENERAL WARNINGS
❒When parking, take the utmost care
to obstacles that may be set above or
under the sensors.
❒Objects set close to the car, under
certain circumstances are not detect-
ed and could therefore cause damages
to the car or be damaged.
❒indications sent by the sensors can be
altered by dirt, snow or ice deposit-
ed on the sensors or by ultrasound
systems (e.g.: truck pneumatic brakes
or pneumatic hammers) set nearby the
car.
