(see "Settings" in the "Vehicle mode"
paragraph in the "Multimedia" section).
In addition to the acoustic warning, the
system indicates the presence of an
obstacle in the rear area by displaying a
single arc in one of the possible areas,
in accordance with the distance of the
object and the position in relation to the
vehicle.
If several obstacles are detected
simultaneously in the rear area,
the display will show all of them,
regardless of the area in which they
were detected.
The colour on the display depends on
the distance from and position of the
obstacle.
Operation with trailer
The operation of the sensors is
automatically deactivated when the
plug for the electric cable for the trailer
is inserted in the vehicle tow hook
socket. The sensors are automatically
reactivated when the trailer's cable plug
is removed.

delayed).

presence of obstacles with acoustic
signal and, where provided, also with
