WARNING (Continued)
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. 146
■
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".
Additionally installed accessories such as bicycle carriers can impair the sys-
■
tem functionality.

bumper and an obstacle. The ultrasonic sensors are, depending on vehicle
equipment,, located in the back or in the front bumper
Depending on the equipment, the following system variants can exist

Acoustic signals
The interval between the acoustic signals becomes shorter as the clearance is
reduced. At a distance of approx. 30 cm a continuous tone starts to sound -
danger zone. From this moment onwards, do not continue to move towards
the obstacle!
The acoustic signals can be set in Infotainment
ment.
