Failure indicators
The system ECU is designed to check
all the components every time reverse
gear is engaged.
In the event that the parking
sensors fail, the relative warning
light
illuminates on the display,
accompanied by the message
“Parking Sensor Failure”.
In the event of a failure signal, stop
the vehicle and turn the ignition key
to
STOP ( OFF ). Then try cleaning the
sensors or moving the vehicle away
from any possible ultrasound sources
(e.g. pneumatic truck brakes or
pneumatic hammers) and rotate the
ignition key to the
MAR ( ON ) position.
If the cause of the operating fault has
been eliminated, full operation of the
system will be recovered.
If however, the failure beep
continues, contact the
Authorized
Maserati Dealer to have the system
checked.
During parking manoeuvres,
always be extremely careful
with obstacles that might be
located above or below the sensors.
In fact, in certain circumstances,
objects located near the rear of
the vehicle are not detected by
the system and therefore could
damage the vehicle or be damaged
themselves.
The signals transmitted
by the sensors can also be
altered by damage to the
sensors or by dirt, snow or ice on the
latter or even by mechanisms which
emit ultrasonic frequencies (e.g.
pneumatic truck brakes or pneumatic
hammers) in the vicinity of the
vehicle.
The driver is fully
responsible for parking
and other potentially
dangerous manoeuvres. During these
manoeuvres, always make sure there
are no people (especially children) or
animals in the manoeuvring area. The
parking sensors must be considered
an aid for the driver who, ultimately,
must always take care during
potentially dangerous manoeuvres,
even at low speeds.
