Parking assistance sensors
Cleaning the sensors
The sensors must be cleaned regularly to
ensure that they work properly. Clean them
with water and car shampoo.
The sensors can react if covered by ice and
snow.
IMPORTANT!
In certain conditions the parking
assistance system may produce incorrect
warning signals that are caused by
external sound sources that emit the
same ultrasonic frequencies that the
system works with. Examples of such
sources include horns, wet tyres on
asphalt, pneumatic brakes and motor-
cycle exhaust pipes. This does not
indicate any fault in the system.
