2018 Seat Arona parking sensors

Operation
As you approach the obstacle, the time inter-
v al
betw
een the audible warnings will be re-
duced. When you reach around 0.30 m the
warning will be constant: Do not continue to
move forward (or backward) ››› in General
inf orm
ation on p

age 240, ››› in General in-
f orm
ation on p
age 240 !
If you maintain separation from the obstacle,
the volume of the warning begins to reduce
after four seconds (does not affect the tone
of the constant warning).
Activating/Deactivating
When engaging reverse gear, the parking aid
is automatically switched on. This is con-
firmed with a short warning.
On disengaging reverse gear, the Parking Aid
system is disconnected immediately. Parking Aid Plus* Fig. 215
Represented area. During parking, P
ark
in
g System Plus assists
the driver by visually and audibly warning
them about obstacles detected in front of
and behind the vehicle.
There are ultrasound sensors integrated in
the front and rear bumpers. When they detect
an obstacle, you are alerted by audible warn-
ings and visually on the Easy Connect sys-
tem.
In the event of danger of a frontal collision,
the audible warnings come from the front of
the vehicle, and in the event of the danger of
a rear-end collision they come from the rear.
Make particularly sure that the sensors are
not covered by adhesives, residues and the
like, as this could affect the system's opera-
tion. Cleaning instructions ››› page 263. The approximate measurement range of the
sensors

is:
1.20 m
1.60 m
0.90 m
As you approach the obstacle, the time inter-
val between the audible warnings will be re-
duced. When you reach around 0.30 m the
warning will be constant: do not continue to
move forward (or backward)!
If you maintain separation from the obstacle,
the volume of the warning begins to reduce
after four seconds (does not affect the tone
of the constant warning).
In order to view the entire periphery of the ve-
hicle, the vehicle must be moved a few me-
tres forwards and backwards. Thus, the miss-
ing areas are screened and obstacles at the
sides of the vehicle are displayed

Error messages When the Parking Aid is activated or when it
i
s
sw

itched on, if a message reporting a Park-
ing aid error is displayed on the instrument
panel, there is a fault in the system.
If the fault does not disappear before discon-
necting the ignition, the next time that the
parking aid is engaged in reverse, no audible signal of the existence of a fault will be is-
sued.
Park

ing System Plus*
If there is a fault in the parking aid system a
message will appear on the instrument panel
indicating the error. In addition the  key
LED will blink.
If there is a fault in a sensor, the symbol  is
displayed on the Easy Connect display in
front of/behind the vehicle. If a rear sensor is
faulty, only the obstacles in area A are dis-
p l
a

yed ››› Fig. 215. If a front sensor is faulty,
only the obstacles in area B are displayed.

Parking System Plus
The distance to possible obstacles at the rear
of the vehicle will not be displayed on the screen and nor will it be indicated by means
of audibl

e sound signals.
The Easy Connect system screen will only dis-
play objects detected at the front, and the ve-
hicle's trajectory will be hidden.
Braking while manoeuvring function* 3 Only valid with Parking System Plus
The emer
g

ency braking function is used to
minimise damage in the event of a collision.
Depending on the equipment, if the Parking
Aid is active, the braking while manoeuvring
function activates emergency braking when it
detects an obstacle in the vehicle’s path that
could cause a collision, driving forwards or in
reverse.
The function will not brake if the Parking Aid
is activated automatically. For the system to
operate, manoeuvring speed must be be-
tween 2.5 and 10 km/h (between 1.5 and 6
mph) for the front area and between 1.5 and
10 km/h (between 1 and 6 mph) for the rear.
Following an intervention, the braking while
manoeuvring function will be inactive in the
same direction of travel for 5 metres. Once
the gear is changed, or the selector lever’s
position is changed, the function will be ac-
tive again. The Parking Aid’s limitations ap-
