Indication On Display
The driver can select the type of warning they
would like to be displayed through the radio
system. To access the function on the main
menu, select in the following order:
1. “Settings”
2. “Driver Assistance”
3. “ParkSense”
4. “Mode”
5. “Sound and Display”
Visual Indications
The system indicates the presence of an
obstacle by displaying a single red arc in the
detected area, in relation to the distance of
the object and the position of the vehicle.
If the obstacle is detected in the rear central
area, a single red arc will be displayed as the
obstacle approaches, first constant, then
flashing, in addition to an acoustic signal.
If the obstacle is detected in the rear left and/or
right area, a single red flashing arc will be shown
in the corresponding area on the display and the
system will emit an acoustic signal, either at
frequent intervals or constantly.
In general, the vehicle is closer to the obstacle
when a single red flashing arc is shown on the
display and the acoustic signal becomes
continuous.
If several obstacles are detected simultane-
ously in the rear area, the display will show all
of them, regardless of the area in which they
were detected.
It is not possible to exit from the display screen
while the vehicle is in REVERSE.
Fault Indication
Parking sensor faults, if any, will be indicated
when REVERSE is engaged by a message on
the instrument cluster display. Refer to
"Warning Lights And Messages" in "Getting To
Know Your Instrument Panel" for further infor-
mation.
Messages On The Display
In case of system failure, a dedicated
message appears on the instrument cluster
for about five seconds.
Cleaning The Sensors: If the display shows
a message requiring the sensors to be
cleaned, make sure that the outer surface
and the underside of the rear bumper is free
of debris (e.g. snow, mud, ice, etc.). Once
these areas are clear, place the ignition in
the OFF position, then return it to ON/RUN.
If the message is still displayed, contact an
authorized dealer.
Audio System Not Available: If the display
shows a message that the audio system is not
available, it means that the acoustic signal will
be emitted by the instrument panel, and not
through the vehicles speakers.
NOTE:
Some conditions may influence the perfor-
mance of the ParkSense System:
Reduced sensor sensitivity could be due to
the presence of ice, snow, mud, or thick
paint on the surface of the sensor.
The sensors may detect a false obstacle
(echo interference) due to mechanical inter-
ference, for example when washing the
vehicle or in extreme weather.
The signals sent by the sensors can be
altered by the presence of ultrasonic
systems (e.g. pneumatic brake systems of
trucks or pneumatic drills) near the vehicle.
System performance can be influenced by
the position of the sensors. For example,
due to a change in the ride setting (caused
by wear to the shock absorbers or suspen-
sion), by changing tires, overloading the
vehicle or operations that require the
vehicle to be lowered.
Be sure not to place bumper stickers or
other adhesives over the sensors as this will
affect system performance.
