the instrument panel display about the opera-
tions that have to be carried out to perform
the maneuver correctly.
Selection Of The Maneuver Side
Use the right and left arrow buttons on the
steering wheel to select between parallel or
perpendicular parking mode. Then use the
direction indicators (turn signals) to choose
the direction that you want to perform the
maneuver.
During the maneuver, the system asks to shift
to REVERSE, select the direction indicator in
the direction you want to exit. Let go of the
steering wheel and press the dedicated ped-
als, while the system handles the steering
automatically for exiting the parking space. If
the driver continues to carry out a voluntary or
involuntary action on the steering wheel dur-
ing the exit maneuver (touching or holding
the steering wheel to prevent its movement),
the maneuver will be interrupted.
End Of Maneuver
The semi-automatic maneuver ends when the
display shows the message of a completed
maneuver. At the end of the maneuver, the
system gives back the vehicle control to the
driver.
Important Information
• If the sensors undergo impact which alters
their position, the system operation could
be greatly affected.
• The sensors reach top performance after
the vehicle has gone about 30 miles
(50 km) due to the dynamic tire circumfer-
ence calculations used for parking.
• Clean the ParkSense sensors regularly, tak-
ing 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 prop-
erly. The ParkSense system might not de-
tect 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 vibrations could affect the perfor-
mance 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 com-
patible with the parking place identified by
the system.
• The use of wheels and tires that are differ-
ent size to the original equipment could
affect the operation of the system.
• The operation of the rear sensors is auto-
matically deactivated 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 automati-
cally reactivated when the trailer's cable
plug is removed.
