Lane change by other vehicles
Vehicles suddenly changing lane, getting in the driving
lane of the car fig. 118 and inside the laser sensor
operating range, may cause system activation.IMPORTANT
WARNING
The system is an aid for the driver who
must never reduce attention while
driving.The responsibility always rests with the
driver, who must take into account the traffic
conditions for driving in complete safety.The
driver must always maintain a safe distance
from the vehicle in front .
WARNING
If the driver depresses the brake pedal
fully or carries out a fast steering during
system operation, the automatic braking
function may stop (e.g. to allow a possible
manoeuvre to avoid the obstacle).The laser sensor may have limited or
absent operation due to weather
conditions such as: heavy rain, hail, thick
fog, heavy snow, formation of ice layers on the
windscreen.

IMPORTANT
IMPORTANT In some circumstances, such as with
ice, snow or mud on the surface of the camera,
the camera sensitivity may be reduced.
IMPORTANT If the tailgate is to be re-painted
following to repairs, make sure the paint does not
get in contact with the camera.
IMPORTANT When parking, take the utmost care
over obstacles that may be above or under the
camera range.
WARNING
The responsibility for parking and other
manoeuvres is always and in any case
charged to the driver.While carr ying out these
manoeuvres, always make sure that no people
(especially children) or animals are in the area
concerned.The camera is an aid for the driver,
but the driver must never allow his/her
attention to lapse during potentially dangerous
manoeuvres, even those executed at low speeds.
Always keep a slow speed, so as to promptly
brake in case of obstacles.
It is vital, for correct operation, that the
camera is always kept clean and free from
any mud, dirt , snow or ice. Be careful not
to scratch or damage the camera while cleaning
it . Avoid using dry, rough or hard cloths.The
camera must be washed using clean water, with
the addition of car shampoo if necessary. In
washing stations which use steam or high-
pressure jets, clean the camera quickly, keeping
the nozzle more than 10 cm away from the
sensors. Also, do not apply stickers to the camera.

GENERAL WARNINGS
When parking, take the utmost care over obstacles
that may be above or below the sensors.
Under certain circumstances, objects close to the
vehicle are not detected by the system and could
therefore cause damage to the car or be damaged
themselves.
Some conditions may influence the performance of
the parking sensors:
❒the presence of ice, snow, mud or think paint on
the sensor surface may cause reduced sensitivity
of the sensor itself and therefore reduce the
system performance.
❒mechanical interference (e.g. washing the car, rain,
strong wind, hail) may cause the sensor to detect a
non-existent obstacle ("echo interference");
❒the presence of ultrasonic systems (e.g. pneumatic
brake systems of trucks or pneumatic drills) near
the car could alter the signals sent by the sensor;
❒the variation in sensor position, caused by
variation in ride (due to suspension component
wear), changing tyres, overloaded car, or tuning
that lowers the car, for example, may affect
parking sensor system performance.
WARNING
The driver is always responsible for
parking manoeuvres however.When
making these manoeuvres, always make sure
that no people (especially children) or animals
are present in your manoeuvring area.The
parking sensors are an aid for the driver, but
must never allow their attention to lapse during
potentially dangerous manoeuvres, even those
executed at low speeds.
