SENSORS
(where provided)
Parking sensors are located in the rear
bumper fig. 127 and their function is to
inform the driver, through an intermittent
buzzer, about the presence of obstacles
behind the car.
ACTIVATION
The 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
distance between the car and the ob-
stacle decreases;
❒ becomes continuous when the dis-
tance between the car and the obsta-
cle is less that 30 cm and stops imme-
diately if the distance raises;
fig. 127
F0H0744m
❒ is constant if the distance is unvaried;
if this situation concerns the side sen-
sors, the buzzer will stop after about
3 seconds to avoid, for example, warn-
ing indications in the event of ma-
noeuvres along walls.
Detection distances
The central range of action varies ac-
cording to the version: the range is equal
to 140 cm and to 70 cm for small sized
obstacles (or round parking posts). The
side action range is 60 cm.
If several obstacles are detected by the
sensors, only the nearest one is consid-
ered.
