PARKING SENSOR
The parking sensor provides dis-
tance information to the driver when
the car moves near obstacles placed
in front of and behind it.
The information on the presence
and distance of obstacles is sent to
the driver by means of sound sig-
nals, the frequency of which
depends on the obstacle distance.
By integrating the direct visual
information with the sound signal
emitted by the system, the driver can
therefore avoid possible collisions.

The responsibility for
parking manoeuvres and
other dangerous manoeu-
vres always rests with the driver.
When performing such manoeu-
vres, always make sure that no
persons or animals stand in the
area where the car is to be
parked. The parking assist sys-
tem should be considered as an
aid to the driver; in any case,
greatest attention must be paid
when performing dangerous
manoeuvres, even at low speed.
The system front and rear sensors
are activated automatically when
engaging reverse with the ignition
key at
MAR
. Disengaging the
reverse gear will turn the rear sen-
sors off; front sensors will stay on
until 15 km/h speed is exceeded to
allow concluding the parking
manoeuvre.
Front sensors can be switched on
by pressing button
A
(

)
placed on the central console in
front of the gear lever; when the
front sensors are on, warning light
B
lights up on the button. To
switch the sensors off, press button
A
again.
When the sensors are on, the sys-
tem starts sending out sound sig-
nals from the front or rear buzzers
as soon as an obstacle is detected;
the signal frequency increases as
the obstacle gets nearer. When the
obstacle is at a distance of less than
30 cm, a continuous sound is emit-
ted. Depending on the position of
the obstacle (in front or behind),
the sound will be emitted from the
corresponding buzzer (front or
rear). The sound signal will imme-
diately stop if the distance from the
obstacles increases. The tone cycle
remains the same if the distance
measured by the central sensors
does not change; however, if this
condition occurs with side sensors,
the signal will be interrupted after
about 3 seconds, to avoid, for
instance, sending out signals in
case of parking manoeuvres along
walls.
