2011 FORD C MAX sensor

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
WARNINGS
The system does not relieve you of
your responsibility to drive with due
care and attention.
At all times you are responsible for
controlling the vehicle, supervising
the system and intervening if
required. You must observe that the selected
space remains clear of obstructions
at all times in the manoeuver.
Vehicles with overhanging loads,
street furniture and other items may
not be detected by the system. You
must make sure that the selected space
is suitable for parking. Do not use the system if a trailer is
attached to the vehicle.
Do not use the system if a bike rack
is attached to the back of the vehicle.
Do not use the system if an
overhanging item is attached to the
roof.
If the manoeuvre is interrupted
before completion, the system will
be disabled. The steering wheel
position will not indicate the true position
of the steering and you will have to take
control of the vehicle. Make sure that loose clothing, your
hands or your arms do not get caught
in the rotating steering wheel. The system will detect a suitable parallel
parking space and steer the vehicle into
the space. The system controls the
steering while the driver controls the
accelerator, transmission and brakes. The
manoeuvre can be stopped at any time by
holding the steering wheel or pressing the
active park assist switch. See At a Glance
(page 10).
The system will visually and audibly
instruct the driver throughout the
procedure to safely park the vehicle.
USING ACTIVE PARK ASSIST
CAUTIONS
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 sensors may not detect the kerb.
Note:
If the traction control system is
disabled active park assist will not be
available. See General Information (page
83).
The system will not align the vehicle
correctly if:
• a spare tyre, or a tyre worn significantly
more than the other tyres is used
• the factory installed tyre size is not
used on the vehicle
• the tyres skid
• you allow the vehicle to roll
• the weather conditions are poor (heavy
rain, snow, fog, etc).

CAUTION
Make sure that you use the correct
wheel nuts for the type of wheel the
winter tyres are fitted to.
If winter tyres are used, make sure that the
tyre pressures are correct. See Technical
Specifications (page 209).
USING SNOW CHAINS
WARNINGS
Do not exceed 50 km/h (30 mph).
Do not use snow chains on snow-free
roads.
Only fit snow chains to specified
tyres. See Technical
Specifications (page 209).
CAUTION
If your vehicle is fitted with wheel
trims, remove them before fitting
snow chains.
Note:
The ABS will continue to operate
normally.
Only use snow chains of 10 millimetre or
smaller.
Only use snow chains on the front wheels.
Vehicles with stability control
(ESP)
Vehicles with stability control (ESP) may
exhibit some unusual driving
characteristics which can be reduced by
switching traction control off. See Using
Stability Control (page 145). TYRE PRESSURE
MONITORING SYSTEM WARNINGS
The system does not relieve you of
your responsibility to regularly check
the tyre pressures.
The system will only provide a low
tyre pressure warning. It will not
inflate the tyres.
Do not drive on significantly
under-inflated tyres. This may cause
the tyres to overheat and fail.
Under-inflation reduces fuel efficiency, tyre
tread life and may also affect your ability
to drive the vehicle safely. CAUTIONS
Do not bend or damage the valves
when you are inflating the tyres.
Have tyres installed by properly
trained technicians.
The Deflation Detection System will alert
you if there is a change of air pressure in
any tyre. It does this by using the ABS
sensors to detect the rolling circumference
of the wheels. When the circumference
changes, this indicates low pressure in a
tyre, a warning message is displayed in the
information display and the message
indicator will illuminate. See Information
Messages (page 90).
If a low pressure warning message is
displayed in the information display, check
the tyre pressures as soon as possible and
inflate them to the recommended
pressure. See Technical Specifications
(page 209).
If this happens frequently, have the cause
determined and rectified as soon as
possible.
