parking sensors FIAT DOBLO 2008 1.G Owners Manual

101GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
– becomes continuous when the dis-
tance between the vehicle and the ob-
stacle is less that 30 cm and stops im-
mediately if the distance raises;
– is constant if the distance is unvar-
ied.
IMPORTANTIn the event of a
parking sensor system failure, you will
hear an alarm signal when you engage
reverse gear.
The sensors are shaped to fit into the
bumpers and optimise scanning angles.

PARKING SENSORS
(where provided)
Parking sensors are located in the
rear bumper to detect and inform the
driver (through an intermittent
acoustic signal) about the presence of
obstacles behind the vehicle.
ACTIVATION
Sensors will activate automatically
when engaging reverse gear.
The frequency of the acoustic alarm
will increase as the distance between
the vehicle and the obstacle decreas-
es.
BUZZER WARNINGS
When the reverse gear is engaged an
intermittent acoustic signal is auto-
matically activated (short beep to sig-
nal system activation).
The acoustic signal frequency:
– becomes louder as the reduction
of distance between the vehicle and
the obstacle decreases;Detection distances:
Central ray ................................130 cm
Corner action range ................ 60 cm
Min/max range ................... 25/180 cm
If several sensors signal an obstacle,
the control unit checks and indicates
the closest one.
The system will automatically cut out
also when reverse gear is engaged af-
ter a distance of 50 or after exceeding
the speed of 30 km/h.
For proper operation,
the parking sensors shall
always be clean from
mud, dirt, snow or ice. Therefore
keep the rear bumpers clean to
prevent irregular operation of
the parking sensors.
