Using the parking aid
Useful information
!
Pay attention to people and obstacles
when manoeuvring or parking the car. The
driver is responsible in these situations.
The electronic parking aid gives an acoustic
indication of the distance between the vehi-
cle and an obstacle behind it.
The parking aid uses three sensors
:
in the
rear bumper to monitor the area around the
vehicle.
The parking aid measures the distance
between the vehicle and an obstacle. If the
proximity to the object behind the vehicle is
less than 1.20 m, a short signal is issued. If
the object is less than 30 cm away, a contin-
uous warning tone is issued.
The parking aid might not function correctly
under the following circumstances:
R
on uneven terrain
R
if there are obstacles below or above the
sensor detection range
R
near snow or objects that absorb ultra-
sonic waves
R
close to sources of strong ultrasonic radi-
ation, such as pneumatic drills
