The range at which the sensors start to meas -
ure is
about :
To the side 2 feet (0.60 m)
Cent er rea r
5 fee t (1.60 m)
Activation
The parking assist is activated when reverse
gear
is engaged . A brief tone confi rms that
the system is activated .
Backing up
Distance warning when backing up starts
when an obstacle is detected in the range of
the park assist system . As the distance de-
creases, the time interva l between the audib le
tones becomes sho rter.
When the distance is less than 1 foot (0 .30
m), the tone becomes cont inuous . At this
point you should stop backing up.
Please note that low objects already signalled
by a warning can disappear from the system's
detection range and will not continue to be
signalled.
Potential malfunction s
If a warning bu zzer sounds for a few seconds
when the ignition is switched on, there is a
system malfunction with the aco ustic park as-
sist . If the malfunction persists unti l the igni-
tion is switched off, there will be no acoustic
warn ing at the next attemp t to activate the
system . Have the problem corrected.
There is no confirmation tone when reverse
gear is engaged if there is a system ma lfun c-
tion .
For the park ing ass ist to operate, the sensors
must be kept clean and free of ice .
.8, WARNING
- Senso rs have blind spots in which objects
cannot be detec t ed . Pay speci al attention
to small children and animals. They can-

not always be detected by the sensors -
danger of an accident!
- The parking assist cannot replace the
driver's attention. The driver alone is re-
sponsible for parking and similar driving
maneuvers. Always watch where you are
driving .
(D Note
Low obstacles already signa lled by a warn-
ing can disappear from the system's detec-
tion range as they are approached and will
not continue to be signalled . Objects such
as ba rrie r cha ins, trailer d raw bars, th in
painted vertica l poles, or fences may not
be dete cted by the system - risk of dam-
age.
(D Tips
For the pa rking assist to operate, the sen-
sors must be kept clean and free of snow
and ice.
