Alarm - Rear Backup
Details & Technology
When reverse gear is selected with the ignition switched on, an audible signal is activated.
If reverse gear is engaged twice within 4 to 5 seconds, the volume of the reversing warning
signal switches to the
quieter setting
. This procedure must be repeated every time a
reversing operation is to be performed with reduced signal volume.
The reversing warning system
cannot be switched off
. Switching off the ignition reactivates
the default setting. The horn for the reversing warning system is normally fitted on the inside
of the end cross-member.
A sticker stating "
Engage reverse gear twice in quick succession to set the reversing beeper to
the quieter nighttime setting"
is enclosed with the vehicle document wallet.
