STARTING AND DRIVING

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:
when external sensors detect
an obstacle at a constant distance
(example: manoeuvring along a wall);
if 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 and
rear area, the acoustic warning of the
obstacle in the nearest trajectory is
reproduced.
When the system emits an
acoustic warning, the volume of the
Uconnect™
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. Visual warnings
("Display warning", see below) are
always given to the driver, even when
the obstacle is not in the trajectory
of the car and will be of a different
colour depending on whether it has
been detected inside or outside the
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 instrument panel display
only if the "Acoustic warning and
display" item in the "Settings" menu of
the
Uconnect™
system is selected
(see "Settings" in the section "Vehicle
mode" in the "Multimedia" section).
The system indicates the presence
of an obstacle by displaying a single
arc in one of the possible areas, in
accordance with the distance of the
object and the position in relation to the
car.
As you approach an obstacle within
the front or rear coverage area, the
display will show a single arc in the
corresponding area, either flashing or
steady. The colour depends on the
distance and position of the obstacle
inside or outside the trajectory of
the car. An obstacle detected in a
continuous tone area is always marked
with a red arc.
If several obstacles are detected
simultaneously in the front and rear
area, the display will show all of them,
regardless of the area in which they
were detected.
Fault indication
Parking sensor faults, if any, will be
indicated by a message on the display
(see description in the "Warning
lights and messages" chapter in the
"Knowing the instrument panel"
section).
Messages on the display
In case of system failure an acoustic
warning is emitted and the display
shows a dedicated message for about
5 seconds.
If the display shows messages
requiring the front 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.). After performing this check,
place the ignition device in STOP
position, then turn it to the ENGINE and
check whether the messages are no
longer displayed. If messages are still
displayed, contact a Fiat Dealership.
