PARKING SENSORS

(for versions/markets, where provided)
These are located in the car's front
bumper and rear bumper and their
function is to inform the driver, through
an intermittent acoustic signal, about the
presence of obstacles in front of and
behind the car.
ACTIVATION
Version with rear sensors
On the versions with rear sensors, the
system is activated when the reverse
gear is engaged.
Version with front and rear sensors
On versions with front sensors and rear
sensors, the system is activated when
the reverse gear is engaged or by
pressing the button on the centre console
.
When reverse gear is released, the front
and rear sensors remain activated until a
speed of around 15 km/h is exceeded to
allow the parking manoeuvre to be
completed.
The sensors are deactivated by pressing
the button again or when a speed of
15 km/h is exceeded: the LED in the
button is off when the system is not
active.

Versions with front and rear sensors

front and rear sensors, the closest
obstacle in the front area and in the rear
area is displayed.

is transmitted to the driver by means of
acoustic signals from buzzers installed in
the passenger compartment.
