PARKING SENSORS
(where provided)
(where provided)
Parking sensors inform the driver about
the presence of obstacles behind the car
(versions fitted with 4 rear sensors) or
behind and in front of the car (versions
fitted with 4 rear sensors and 4 front
sensors).
the presence of obstacles behind the car
(versions fitted with 4 rear sensors) or

This system is therefore an aid for the
driver when parking the car since it de-
tects obstacles out of the driver’s sight
range.
driver when parking the car since it de-

The presence and the distance from the
car of an obstacle is indicated by a warn-
ing buzzer - as the distance from the ob-
stacle decreases, the acoustic alarm be-
comes more frequent - and, only on cer-
tain versions, by an image on the dis-
play (see paragraph “Indications on the
display).

the button led is off.
When sensors are on, front and rear in-
dicators will sound warning signals as
soon as an obstacle is detected: as the
distance from the obstacle decreases,
the acoustic alarm becomes more fre-
quent.

When the distance between the car and
the obstacle is less than 30 cm, the
acoustic alarm becomes continuous. Ac-
cording to obstacle position (in front or
behind the car), the acoustic alarm will
be emitted by front or rear indicators.
