Malfunction
If the event of a malfunction, this warning
lamp lights up on the instrument panel,
accompanied by the display of a message.
Have it checked by a dealer or a qualified
workshop.
The system may be temporarily disturbed
by certain weather conditions (e.g. rain,
hail).
In particular, driving on a wet road or going
from a dry to a wet area can cause false alerts
(e.g. presence of a cloud of water droplets in
the blind spot interpreted as a vehicle).
In bad or wintry weather, ensure that the
sensors are not covered by mud, ice or snow.
Take care not to cover the warning zone in the
door mirrors, or the detection zones on the
front and rear bumpers with adhesive labels
