Parking Sensors - Fiat Multipla Owner's Handbook Manual

PARKING SENSORS (where provided)
Parking sensors are located in the rear bumper to detect and inform the
driver (through an intermittent acoustic signal) about the presence of
obstacles behind the car.
ACTIVATION
Sensors will activate automatically when engaging reverse gear.
The frequency of the acoustic alarm will increase as the distance between
the car and the obstacle decreases.
ACOUSTIC SIGNAL
When the reverse gear is engaged an intermittent acoustic signal is
automatically activated (short beep to signal system activation).
The acoustic signal frequency:
❒ increases with the reduction of distance between the car and the
obstacle;
❒ becomes continuous when the distance between the car and the
obstacle is less than 30 cm and stops if the distance increases;
❒ is constant if the distance is unvaried.
Detection distances:
Centre action range
Corner action range
Min/max range
If several sensors signal an obstacle, the control unit checks and indicates
the closest one.
