The signal is similar for obstacles in the
rear left or right area. The arc that
corresponds to the position of the
obstacle will flash.
The colour on the display depends on
the distance from and position of the
obstacle.
The car is close to the obstacle when
the display shows a single constant arc
and emits a continuous sound. If there
are several obstacles, the closest
approaching one is indicated.
Fault indications
Any parking sensor faults will be
indicated when reverse is engaged by
è
the warning light or of the icon
on the colour display on the instrument
panel and by the relevant message in
the display (for versions/markets,
where provided).
Operation with a trailer
Sensor operation is automatically
deactivated when the trailer's electrical
cable plug is inserted.

START&STOP
SYSTEM
The Start&Stop device automatically
stops the engine each time the vehicle
is stationary and starts it again when
the driver wants to move off.
In this way, the efficiency of the car is
increased, by reducing consumption,
emissions of harmful gases and noise
pollution.
The system is active every time the
engine is started.
