PARKING SENSORS

(where provided)

Parking sensors are located in the rear

bumper fig. 126 (saloon versions) and

fig. 127 (Multi Wagon versions) and their

function is to inform the driver, through

an intermittent buzzer, about the pres-

ence of obstacles behind the car.

ACTIVATION

Sensors are automatically activated when

the reverse gear is engaged.

As the distance from the obstacle behind

the car decreases, the acoustic alarm be-

comes more frequent.

BUZZER WARNINGS

When the reverse gear is engaged an in-

termittent acoustic signal is automatically

activated.

The acoustic signal:

❒

becomes louder as the reduction of dis-

tance between the car and the obstacle

decreases;

❒

becomes continuous when the distance

between the car and the obstacle is less

that 30 cm and stops immediately if the

distance raises.

❒

is constant if the distance is unvaried.

If this situation takes place for side sen-

sors, the signal is stopped after about 3

seconds to prevent sound indications

when performing manoeuvres near

walls.

It is absolutely forbidden to

carry out whatever after-

market operation involving steering

system or steering column modifica-

tions (e.g.: installation of anti-theft

device) that could badly affect per-

formance and safety, cause the lapse

of warranty and also result in non-

compliance of the car with homolo-

gation requirements.

WARNING

Always switch the engine off,

remove the key from the

starting device and actuate the steer-

ing lock before carrying out any main-

tenance operation, especially when

the wheels are raised from the

ground. In case this is not possible

(e.g. when the key must be in MAR

position or the engine running), re-

move the electric power steering

main fuse before carrying out any

maintenance operation.
