• Clean the ParkSense sensors regularly, taking care not to
scratch or damage them. The sensors must not be
covered with ice, snow, slush, mud, dirt or debris.
Failure to do so can result in the system not working
properly. The ParkSense system might not detect an
obstacle behind or in front of the fascia/bumper, or it
could provide a false indication that an obstacle is
behind or in front of the fascia/bumper.
• Construction equipment, large trucks, and other vibra-
tions could affect the performance of ParkSense.
• Sensors may detect a nonexistent obstacle (echo noise)
due to mechanical noises, for example while washing
the vehicle or in the case of rain, strong wind, and hail.
• The sensors may not detect objects of a particular shape
or made from particular materials (very thin poles,
trailer beams, panels, nets, bushes, anti-parking posts,
pavements, rubbish bins, motor vehicles, etc.). Always
take great care to check that the vehicle and its path are
actually compatible with the parking place identified by
the system.
• The use of wheels and tires that are different size to the
original equipment could affect the operation of the
system.
• The operation of the rear sensors is automatically deac-
tivated when the trailer’s electric plug is inserted in the
vehicle’s tow hook socket, while the front sensors stay
active and can provide acoustic and visual warnings.
The rear sensors are automatically reactivated when the
trailer’s cable plug is removed.
• In ⬙Search in progress⬙ mode, the system could incor-
rectly identify a parking place to carry out the maneuver
(e.g. by a junction, driveways, roads crossing the direc-
tion of travel, etc.).
• In the case of parking maneuvers on roads on a slope,
the performance of the system could be inferior and it
may deactivate.
• If a parking maneuver is being carried out between two
parked vehicles alongside the pavement, the system
may cause the vehicle to mount the pavement.
• Some maneuvers at very tight bends might be impos-
sible to be carried out.
• Take great care to ensure that conditions do not change
during the parking maneuver (e.g. if there are persons
and/or animals in the parking place, moving vehicles,
etc.) and intervene immediately if necessary.
