108 Drive control systems
As the vehicle slowly gets close to an object
while reversing, an intermittent acoustic
signal is audible in the passenger
compartment.
The interval between the signals becomes
shorter as the distance is reduced. If the
distance is less than 25 cm, a continuous
signal is audible.

Warning
Under certain circumstances, various
reflective surfaces on objects or clothing
as well as external noise sources may
cause the system to fail to detect
obstacles. For this reason, care must be
taken when reversing even if the parking
distance sensor is operational. This is of
particular importance when in the vicinity
of pedestrians.
The system registers the distance by means
of sensors on the rear bumper.
To ensure that the sensors function
correctly and that the information
provided is accurate, they must be
undamaged and free of dirt, snow and ice.
