Front And Rear Radar Sensors - MG Gloster Manual

Operating state of reverse radar parking assist system:
When the R gear is selected and the vehicle speed is less than 15km/h,
the system will activate the detection function.
Note: If the system keeps ringing for a long time after the gear is
shifted to "R", it indicates that the system has a malfunction.
Contact our Service Dealer for service as soon as possible.
During reversing:
The alarm device will start making alarm sounds when the distance
between the vehicle and a barrier behind it is about 1.5m. The shorter
the distance between the vehicle and barrier is, the more hurried the
alarm sounds are.
When the distance between the vehicle and the barrier behind it is less
than 0.4m, the alarm device will make continuous alarm sounds. At this
time, if you continue reversing, the barrier cannot be identified
effectively.

STARTING AND DRIVING

Front and rear radar sensors

The parking assist system Is not always reliable. It only
plays the guiding role! Reverse radar sensors may be
unable to detect certain types of barriers, such as fine
objects like wire entanglement or rope, small objects
close to the ground, tapered objects and soma objects
with unreflecting surfaces.
Reverse radar sensors shall be free of dirts, lea and snow.
Deposits on the surface of a reverse radar sensor will
hinder the sensor's normal operation. Avoid spraying
reverse radar sensors directly with high-pressure washer
at a close range when washing the vehicle.
Radar sensors in the front bumper scan the area in front of the vehicle,
and four radar sensors in the rear bumper scan the area behind the
vehicle, and judge if there is any obstacle. If any obstacle is detected, the
sensor will calculate its distance form the vehicle, and communicate this
information to the driver by sounding warning chimes. It is important to
know that this system is a parking assist system only and cannot be
regarded as a replacement for observation and personal judgment.
