PARKING SENSORS
(for versions/markets, where provided)
105)
22) 23) 24)
The parking sensors, located in the rear
bumper fig. 113 , are used to detect
the presence of any obstacles near the
rear part of the vehicle. The sensors
by means of intermittent acoustic
indication warn the driver of the
presence of obstacles.
ACTIVATION/
DEACTIVATION
The sensors are automatically activated
when reverse gear is engaged.
The buzzer becomes more frequent as
the obstacle behind the vehicle gets
closer to the bumper.
ACOUSTIC SIGNAL
When reverse gear is engaged an
intermittent acoustic signal is
automatically activated.
The frequency of the acoustic warning:
increases as the distance between
the vehicle and the obstacle decreases;
become continuous when the
distance between the vehicle and the
obstacle is less than 30 cm and stop
immediately if the distance increases;
it remains constant if the distance
remains unchanged; if this situation
concerns the side sensors, the buzzer
will stop after about 3 seconds to
avoid, for example, warning indications
in the event of manoeuvres along
walls.
Detection distances
If several obstacles are detected by the
sensors, only the nearest one is
considered.
FAULT INDICATIONS
Any parking sensor failures will be
indicated when engaging reverse by the
warning light
in the instrument
panel together with the message in the
multifunction display (for versions/
markets where provided) (see “Warning
lights and messages” section in the
"Knowing the instrument panel"
chapter).
OPERATION WITH A
TRAILER
The operation of the sensors is
automatically deactivated when the
trailer's electrical connection is inserted
in the vehicle tow hook socket. Sensors
are reactivated on removing the
trailer's electrical connection.
IMPORTANT NOTES
During parking manoeuvres, pay the
utmost attention to any obstacles that
could be located above or below the
sensors.
Sometimes, objects located very
near the rear of the vehicle are not
detected and could therefore damage
the vehicle or be damaged themselves.
The signals sent out by the sensors
can be altered by dirt, snow or ice
deposited on the sensors or by
ultrasound systems (e.g. truck
pneumatic brakes or pneumatic drills)
near the vehicle.
The parking sensors work properly
with the swing doors closed. If they are
open, they can cause the system to
send false signals: always close the rear
doors.
Also, do not apply stickers to the
sensors.
