suspension FIAT 500L 2018 Owner handbook (in English)

IMPORTANT NOTES
When parking, take the utmost care
over obstacles that may be above
or under the sensor.
Under certain circumstances, objects
close to the car are not detected by the
system and could therefore cause
damage to the car or be damaged
themselves.
Some conditions may influence the
performance of the parking sensors:
the presence of ice, snow, mud
or think paint on the sensor surface
may cause reduced sensitivity of the
sensor itself and therefore reduce
the system performance;
mechanical interference (e.g.
washing the car, rain, strong wind, hail)
may cause the sensor to detect a
non-existent obstacle ("echo
interference");
the presence of ultrasonic systems
(e.g. pneumatic brake systems of
trucks or pneumatic drills) near the car
could alter the signals sent by the
sensor;
the variation in sensor position,
caused by variation in ride (due
to suspension component wear),
changing tyres, overloaded car, or
tuning that lowers the car, for example,
may affect parking sensor system
performance.
WARNING
114)Parking and other dangerous
manoeuvres are, however, always the
driver’s responsibility. While carrying out
these manoeuvres, always make sure that
no people (especially children) or animals
are in the area concerned. The parking
sensors are an aid for the driver, but the
driver must never allow their attention
to lapse during potentially dangerous
manoeuvres, even those executed at low
speeds.
WARNING
58)For correct operation of the system,
sensors must always be clean from mud,
dirt, snow or ice. Be careful not to scratch
or damage the sensors while cleaning
them. Avoid using dry, rough or hard
cloths. The sensors should be washed
using clean water with the addition of car
shampoo if necessary. When using special
washing equipment such as high pressure
jets or steam cleaning, clean the sensors
very quickly keeping the jet more than
10 cm away. Also, do not apply stickers to
the sensors.
