Activation/deactivation of acoustic
and visual signals
With the system active, the acoustic and
visual signals are activated automatically
in the following cases:
when the transmission is in position (D)
and an obstacle is detected
when the transmission is in reverse (R)
when the transmission is in neutral (N)
and an obstacle is detected with the car
in motion
The acoustic and visual signals are
deactivated automatically in the
following cases:
when the transmission is in position
(D) or in neutral (N) and the car exceeds a
speed of about 13 km/h
when the transmission is in reverse
(R) and the car exceeds a speed of
approximately 11 km/h (this will cause the
LED on the on/off button to illuminate)
when the transmission is in position (N)
and the car is at a standstill
when the transmission is in parking
position (P)
Acoustic warning
When the sensors detect an obstacle
within the trajectory of the car, an
acoustic warning is activated with a
frequency that increases as the distance
from the obstacle decreases and then
becomes a continuous tone when this
distance becomes less than about 30 cm.
The acoustic warning is interrupted in the
following situations:
if the car is at a standstill with the
transmission in a position other than
reverse (R)
when the obstacle is not within the
trajectory of the car
If the sensors detect several obstacles
at the same time, both in the front, rear
and side area, the acoustic warning of
the obstacle in the nearest trajectory is
reproduced.
When the system emits an acoustic
signal, the volume of the Alfa Connect
system, if activated, is automatically
lowered.
The acoustic indications are only
activated when the obstacle is on the
trajectory of the car and so there is a real
risk of collision. The visual indications
(“Indications on display”, see below)
instead are also provided to the driver,
even when the obstacle is outside on the
car trajectory.
In case of failure of the car audio system,
the acoustic warnings will be provided
by the buzzer of the instrument panel
and will not be directional (the acoustic
warning will not be from the side where
the obstacle has been detected).
Warning on display
The warnings regarding the system are
shown on the Alfa Connect display only if
the "Acoustic warning and display" item
in the "Settings" menu of the system is
selected (see "Settings" in the "Vehicle
mode" paragraph in the "Multimedia"
section).
The colour depends on the distance and
position of the obstacle inside or outside
the trajectory, except in the continuous
tone area where the obstacle is always
marked with a red arc.
Fault indication
Any faults of the parking sensors
are signalled by the relative message
displayed on the instrument panel
display (see the "Warning lights and
messages" chapter in the "Getting to
know the instrument panel” section) and
by the respective icon displayed on the
Alfa Connect system display.
Messages on the display
In case of system failure, a dedicated
message is shown on the display for
about 5 seconds. If the display shows
messages requiring the front, side or rear
sensor cleaning, make sure that the outer
surface and the underside of the bumper
is free of dirt (e.g. snow, mud, ice, etc.).
General warnings
When parking, take the utmost care over
obstacles that may be above or under the
sensor. Objects close to the car are not
detected under certain circumstances
