4.2 Parking distance control Park Boy V (special
equipment)
Short description The parking distance control serves as an aid for parking. The distance to pos-
sible obstacles is measured using the ultrasound echo sounder method. Four
sensors at the rear of vehicle send ultrasound signals and the distance to the
obstacle is measured according to the time taken by the reflected ultrasound
signals.
In the passenger compartment, a display unit (Fig. 16) shows the distance to
the obstacle. At the same time, an acute signal sounds as a warning.
The sensors and display unit are linked by radio.
Z
If a reversing camera is installed in the vehicle, the camera is automatically
switched on when driving in reverse gear.
Z
If the vehicle is equipped with the automatic transmission Comfort-Matic
from Fiat, please note the following: The acoustic signal described in the
instruction manual for Comfort-Matic is not active in our vehicles. No
warning tone will sound.
X
Be particularly careful when driving backwards. Risk of accident and
injury.
X
The parking distance control is only an auxiliary appliance and may not
necessarily recognise all obstacles. The driver of the vehicle is respon-
sible for safety. If the device fails or there is a malfunction and damage
occurs, then claims cannot be asserted against the vehicle manufac-
turer.
X
Soil deposits, ice, snow and exhaust fumes can prevent the parking dis-
tance control from working properly.
X
Only if you drive slowly (at inching speed) will a warning be emitted in
time.
X
Obstacles above or below the sensor measurement area will be ignored
(e.g. projecting load ramps).
X
Precipitous embankments or road edges (e.g. quay walls) are ignored.
Z
Reflections from the road (a change of surface, irregularities) can some-
times trigger false alarms. This is not due to an error in the parking distance
control.
