PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
WARNING
The system does not relieve you of
your responsibility to drive with due
care and attention.
CAUTIONS
Vehicles fitted with a trailer tow
module not approved by us may not
correctly detect obstacles.
The sensors may not detect objects
in heavy rain or other conditions that
cause disruptive reflections.
The sensors may not detect objects
with surfaces that absorb ultrasonic
waves.
The parking aid does not detect
obstacles moving away from the
vehicle. They will only be detected
shortly after they start to move towards
the vehicle again.
If you use a high pressure spray to
wash your vehicle, only spray the
sensors briefly from a distance not
less than 20 centimetres (8 inches).
Parking aid sends tones via the audio
system fitted and approved by us. If
this is not working the parking aid
system will not work.
Note: On vehicles fitted with a tow ball
arm, the rear parking aid is deactivated
automatically when any trailer lamps (or
lighting boards) are connected to the
13-pin socket via a trailer tow module we
have approved.
Note: Keep the sensors free from dirt,
ice and snow. Do not clean with sharp
objects.
Parking aid
Note: The parking aid may emit false
tones if it detects a signal using the same
frequency as the sensors or if the vehicle
is fully laden.
Note: The outer sensors may detect the
side walls of a garage. If the distance
between the outer sensor and the side
wall remains constant for three seconds,
the tone will switch off. As you continue,
the inner sensors will detect rearward
objects.

PARKING AID
The parking aid does not relieve you

due care and attention.
E77927
The parking aid is automatically activated
when you select reverse gear with the
ignition switched on.
You will hear an intermittent tone at a
distance of approximately 150
centimetres (59 inches) between the
obstacle and rear bumper and
approximately 50 centimetres (20 inches)
to the side. Decreasing the distance
accelerates the intermittent tone.
