2010 FORD KUGA Parking sensors switch

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
WARNING
The parking aid does not relieve you
of your responsibility to drive with
due care and attention.
CAUTIONS
Vehicles fitted with a trailer tow
module not approved by us may not
correctly detect obstacles.
The sensors may not detect objects
in heavy rain or other conditions that
cause disruptive reflections.
The sensors may not detect objects
with surfaces that absorb ultrasonic
waves.
The parking aid does not detect
obstacles moving away from the
vehicle. They will only be detected
shortly after they start to move towards
the vehicle again. Take particular care when reversing
with a tow ball arm or rear fitted
accessories e.g. a bicycle carrier, as
the rear parking aid will only indicate the
distance from the bumper to the obstacle. If you use a high pressure spray to
wash your vehicle, only spray the
sensors briefly from a distance not
less than 20 centimetres (8 inches). Note:On vehicles fitted with a tow ball
arm, the parking aid is deactivated automatically when any trailer lamps (orlighting boards) are connected to the13-pin socket via a trailer tow module wehave approved.
Note:Keep the sensors free from dirt,
ice and snow. Do not clean with sharp objects.
Note:The parking aid may emit false
tones if it detects a signal using the same frequency as the sensors or if the vehicleis fully laden.
Note:The outer sensors may detect the
side walls of a garage. If the distance between the outer sensor and the sidewall remains constant for three seconds,the tone will switch off. As you continue,the inner sensors will detect rearwardobjects.
USING THE PARKING AID
