FAILURE INDICATIONS
Parking sensor failures are indicated, when engaging
reverse gear, by a three-second beep.
The sensor must be free of mud, dirt , snow
or ice in order for the system to work. Be
careful not to scratch or damage the
sensors while cleaning them. Avoid using dr y,
rough or hard cloths.The sensors should be
washed using clean water with the addition of car
shampoo if necessary.When using special
washing equipment such as high pressure jets or
steam cleaning, clean the sensors very quickly
keeping the jet more than 10 cm away.
OPERATION WITH TRAILER
The operation of the sensors is automatically
deactivated when the plug for the electric cable for
the trailer is inserted in the vehicle tow hook socket.
The sensors are automatically enabled again when
the trailer cable plug is removed.GENERAL WARNINGS
❒During parking manoeuvres, pay the utmost
attention to any obstacles that could be located
above or below the sensors.
❒Sometimes, objects located very near the rear of
the vehicle are not detected and could therefore
damage the vehicle or be damaged themselves.
❒The signals sent out by the sensors can be altered
by dirt, snow or ice deposited on the sensors or
by ultrasound systems (e.g. truck pneumatic brakes
or pneumatic drills) near the vehicle.
❒The parking sensors work properly with the swing
doors closed. If they are open, they can cause the
system to send false signals: always close the
rear doors.
WARNING
The ultimate responsibility when
parking and carrying out other
dangerous manoeuvres still rests with the
driver.When parking, make sure that no-one is
standing in the area, especially children or
animals. Parking sensors are designed to assist
drivers; however, you must always concentrate
fully during potentially dangerous manoeuvres,
even if carried out at low speeds.
