Parking distance sensors 3
Parking distance sensors make reverse
parking easier by measuring the distance
between the vehicle and an obstacle in the
rear, and giving an acoustic signal in the
passenger compartment.
The system records the distance using four
sensors in the rear bumper.

To activate
The parking distance sensors activate
automatically when the ignition is switched
on and reverse gear is engaged.
Its operational readiness is indicated by
illumination of the LED in button
If the vehicle approaches an obstacle when
reversing, a series of signals can be heard
in the vehicle interior. The interval between
the signals becomes shorter as the
distance is reduced. If the distance is less
than 30 cm, the signal will be continuous.

Under certain circumstances, various
reflective surfaces on objects or clothing
as well as external noise sources may
cause the system to fail to detect
obstacles. For this reason, care must be
taken when reversing even if the parking
distance sensors are operational. This is
of particular importance when in the
vicinity of pedestrians.
