KNOWING YOUR CAR
For correct operation,
sensors must always
be clean from mud, dirt,
snow or ice. Be careful not
to scratch or damage the sensors
while cleaning them. Avoid using dry,
rough or hard cloths. The sensors
should be washed using clean water
with the addition of car shampoo
if necessary. When using special
washing equipment such as high
pressure jets or steam cleaning,
clean the sensors very quickly
keeping the jet more than
10 cm away.
PARKING SENSORS
(where provided)
Parking sensors are located in the rear
bumper
fig. 51 and their function
is to inform the driver, through an
intermittent buzzer, about the presence
of obstacles behind the car.
ACTIVATION
The sensors are automatically activated
when the reverse gear is engaged.
As the distance from the obstacle
behind the car decreases, the beeping
becomes more frequent.
BUZZER WARNING
When reverse gear is engaged and
there is an obstacle behind the car
a buzzer is activated and the signal
varies as the distance of the obstacle
from the bumper varies.
The beep frequency:
❒
becomes louder as the distance
between car and obstacle decreases;
❒
becomes continuous when the
distance between the car and the
obstacle is less than around 30 cm
and stops immediately if the distance
increases;
❒
is constant if the distance is unvaried;
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.
fig. 51
KA00042m
If several obstacles are detected by
the sensors, only the nearest one
is considered.
FAILURE WARNINGS
Parking sensor failures, if any, will
be indicated when engaging reverse
by the turning on of the instrument
panel warning light
è
together with
the message on the multifunction
display, where provided (see section
“Warning lights and messages”).
