in section Introduction.
Moving persons or objects may not be recognized by the system sensors.
■
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 detected by the system sen-
sors.
Before reversing, make sure that there are is not any small obstacle, such
■
