ing. If the vehicle is ap-
proaching an obstacle, an intermittent audi-
ble warning is emitted. The shorter the dis-
tance, the shorter the intervals between
tones. If the vehicle is too close to the obsta-
cle, the audible warning becomes constant.
Switching the parking distance warning sys-
tem on and off
●
Press the button when the ignition is
switched on ››› Fig. 207.
●
Automatic on: select reverse gear.
●
Automatic off: drive faster than 15 km/h
(9 mph).
The button lights up when the function is
switched on.
Things to note on the parking distance warn-
ing system
●
The parking distance warning system
sometimes registers water on the sensors as
an obstacle.
●
If the distance does not change, the warn-
ing signal will sound less loudly after a few
seconds. If the continuous signal sounds, the
volume will remain constant.
●
When the vehicle moves away from the ob-
stacle, the beeping sound automatically
switches off. On approaching the obstacle
again, the beeping sound will automatically
switch back on.
●
If the electronic parking brake is engaged
or the selector lever is set to P, no audible
warning will be emitted.
●
Your technical service centre can adjust the
volume of the warning signals.
Note
If the parking distance warning system is
faulty
, a constant audible warning will be
emitted the first time it is switched on and
the button will flash. Switch the parking dis-
tance warning system off using the button
and take the vehicle to a specialised work-
shop to have the system checked as soon as
possible.
