the system may not work
properly.

if the sensors are frozen or
covered with dirt.

contact a Holden Dealer as soon
as possible.

surface of the sensors.
• Do not hit or direct high pressure
water directly at the sensors as
they may be damaged.

correctly when the vehicle is
driven over uneven surfaces.

sharp objects, thick winter
clothes or other materials which
absorb ultrasonic waves.
