WHY CHOOSING
GENUINE PARTS

For correct operation, 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 dr y,
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.
GENERAL WARNINGS
❒When parking, take the utmost care over
obstacles that may be above or under the sensors.
❒Objects close to the car, are not detected under
certain circumstances and could therefore cause
damage to the car or be damaged.
Some of the conditions that could affect the
performance of the parking system are described
below:
❒Reduced sensor sensitivity and a reduction in the
parking assistance system performance could be
due to the presence on the surface of the sensor
of: ice, snow, mud, thick paint
❒The sensor may detect a non-existent obstacle
(echo interference) due to mechanical
interference, for example when washing the
vehicle, in 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.
❒Parking assistance system performance can also be
influenced by the position of the sensors, for
example due to a change in the ride setting
(caused by wear to the shock absorbers,
suspension), or by changing tyres, overloading the
car or carrying out specific tuning operations
that require the car to be lowered.
❒The presence of a tow hook without trailer
interferes with the correct operation of the
parking sensors. If a fixed tow hook is installed, the
sensors cannot be used. If the customer installs a
removable tow hook, this must always be
disconnected from the crossmember whenever
the trailer is not attached to prevent the activation
of the sensors.
WARNING
The responsibility for parking and other
dangerous manoeuvres always and in
every case lies with the driver.When making
these manoeuvres, always make sure that no
people (especially children) or animals are
present in your manoeuvering space.The parking
sensors serve to assist the driver, but must never
allow his attention to lapse during potentially
dangerous manoeuvres, even those executed at
low speeds.
