2014 FIAT BRAVO brake sensor

SENSOR OPERATING RANGE
The sensors allow the system to check the front part
(version with 8 sensors) and rear part of the vehicle.
Their position covers the middle and side areas of
the front and rear of the vehicle.
If an obstacle is located in a middle area, it is
detected when the distance is less than about 0.9 m
(front) and 1.40 m (rear).
If the obstacle is located at the side, it is detected at
distances of less than 0.6 m.
OPERATION WITH TRAILER
The operation of the sensors is automatically
deactivated when the trailer's electric cable plug is
inserted in the car's tow hook socket.
The sensors are automatically enabled again when
the trailer's cable plug is removed.
IMPORTANT If you wish to leave the tow hook
fitted when there is no trailer, it is advisable to
contact a Fiat Dealership to have the system updated
because the tow hook could be detected as an
obstacle by the central sensors.FAILURE INDICATIONS
Any failures in the parking sensor system are
signalled, when reverse gear is engaged, by the
warning light
in the instrument panel lighting up
or by the symbol
together with a message in the
display (see "Warning lights and messages" chapter).
GENERAL WARNINGS
During parking manoeuvres, pay the utmost
attention to any obstacles that could be located
above or below the sensors.
Under certain circumstances close objects located in
front of or behind the car may not be detected and
could therefore cause damage to the car or be
damaged themselves.
The following conditions may influence the
performance of the parking sensor system:
❒Reduced sensor sensitivity and a reduction in the
parking assistance system performance could be
due to the presence on the surface of the sensor
of: ice, snow, mud, thick paint.
❒The sensors may detect a non-existent obstacle
(echo interference) due to mechanical
interference, for example when washing the car, in
rain (strong wind), hail.
❒The signals sent by the sensors can also be altered
by the presence of ultrasonic systems (e.g.
pneumatic brake systems or pneumatic drills) near
the vehicle.
