and hydraulic shock absorber to ensure maximum

SOUND SYSTEM
(for versions/markets, where provided)
For radio operation, consult the Supplement attached to
this Owner Handbook.
SOUND SYSTEM CAPABILITY
(for versions/markets where provided)
The system consists of:
❒sound system power cables
❒front speaker connection cables
❒aerial power cable
❒2 tweeters A on the front pillars (30 W max power
each), fig. 137;
❒2 mid-woofers B in the front doors (165 mm
diameter, 40 W max power each)
fig. 138;
❒radio aerial lead.
❒The sensor may detect a non-existent obstacle
(echo noise) due to mechanical noises, for example
when washing the vehicle, in case of rain, strong
wind, hail.
❒The signals sent by the sensors can also be altered
by the presence of ultrasonic systems (e.g.
pneumatic brake systems or pneumatic drills) near
the vehicle.
❒The performance of the parking assistance system
may also be affected by the position of the sensors.
For example by a change in the ride setting (caused
by the wear of the shock absorbers, suspension),
changing the tyres, overloading the vehicle and
carrying out specific tuning operations that require
the vehicle to be lowered;
❒Detection of obstacles in the upper part of the
vehicle (particularly in the case of vans or chassis
cabs) may not be guaranteed because the system
detects obstacles that could strike the lower part
of the vehicle.
