PARKING SENSORS
(for versions/markets, where provided)
They are located in the rear bumper fig. 115 and
their function is to detect the presence of any
obstacles near the rear part of the car; they
consequently inform the driver, through an
intermittent acoustic signal.
ACTIVATION/DEACTIVATION
The sensors are automatically activated when reverse
gear is engaged. As the obstacle behind the vehicle
gets closer to the car, the acoustic signal becomes
more frequent.
