WARNING (Continued)
Under certain circumstances, surfaces of certain objects and types of
■
clothing cannot reflect the system signals. There is a danger that such ob-
jects or people may not be recognised by the system sensors.
External noise sources may affect the signals of the system sensors.
■
There is a danger that obstacles may not be recognised by the system sen-
sors.
Before reversing, you should satisfy yourself that there are no small ob-
■
stacle, such as a rock, thin post etc., in front or behind your vehicle. Such
obstacles may not be recognised by the system sensors.
CAUTION
Keep the system sensors » Fig. 243
■
and do not cover with any objects of any kind, otherwise the system function-
ing may be impaired.
In adverse weather conditions (heavy rain, water vapour, very low or high
■
temperatures, etc.), the functioning of the system may be impaired - "incorrect
recognition of obstacles".
Accessories additionally installed on the vehicle rear, such as bicycle carriers,
■
can impair the system function.
