PRINCIPLE OF
OPERATION
WARNING
The parking aid does not relieve
you of your responsibility to
drive with due care and attention.
CAUTIONS
The sensors may not detect
objects in heavy rain or other
conditions that cause disruptive
reflections.
The sensors may not detect
objects with surfaces that absorb
ultrasonic waves.
The sensors may not detect
objects that are close to the
vehicle (approximately 30
centimetres to the rear and above or
below the sensors).
If you use a high pressure spray
to wash your vehicle, only spray
the sensors briefly from a distance
not less than 20 centimetres (8
inches).
Note: The parking aid may emit false
tones if it detects a signal using the
same frequency as the sensors or if
the vehicle is fully laden.
Note: The outer sensors may detect
the side walls of a garage. If the
distance between the outer sensor
and the side wall remains constant
for three seconds, the tone will
switch off. As you continue, the inner
sensors will detect rearward objects.
USING THE PARKING AID
Note: Keep the sensors free from
dirt, ice and snow. Do not clean with
sharp objects.

The parking aid switches off
automatically when you start the

trailer lamps (or lighting boards) are
connected to the 13-pin socket via a
trailer tow module we have
approved. On vehicles fitted with a
trailer tow module not approved by
us, you have to switch the parking
aid off using the switch.
Note: The front and rear sensors are
always activated or deactivated
together.

automatic transmission, the parking
aid will not operate in position
