brake sensor FIAT PUNTO EVO 2010 1.G Owners Manual

122
The beeping:
❒increases as the distance between the car and the ob-
stacle decreases;
❒becomes continuous when the distance between the
car and the obstacle is less than around 30 cm and stops
immediately if the distance increases;
❒is constant if the distance is unvaried; if this situation oc-
curs for the side sensors, the beeping will stop after
about 3 seconds to avoid, for example, warning indica-
tions in the event of manoeuvres alongside walls.
Detection distances
If several obstacles are detected by the sensors, only the
nearest one is considered.
FAILURE INDICATIONS
See “Warning lights and messages” section.
OPERATION WITH TRAILER
The operation of the sensors is automatically deactivated
when the trailer electric plug is inserted in the car tow
hook socket.
The sensors are automatically enabled again when the trail-
er cable plug is removed.
When using special washing equipment such as high pres-
sure jets or steam cleaning, clean the sensors very quick-
ly keeping the jet more than 10 cm away.KNOWING

The driver always has ultimate responsi-
bility for parking and other dangerous ma-
noeuvres. When parking, make sure that no-one
is standing in the area, especially children or an-
imals. The parking sensors are designed to assist
drivers: in all cases, you must always pay the ut-
most attention during potentially dangerous ma-
noeuvres, even when carried out at low speed.
WARNING
The sensor must be clean of mud, dirt, snow
or ice in order for the system to work. Be
careful not to scratch or damage the sen-
sors while cleaning them. Avoid using dry, rough or
hard cloths. The sensors should be washed with
clean water, possibly with some car shampoo.
GENERAL WARNINGS
❒When parking, watch out for obstacles that may be
above or under the sensors.
❒Sometimes, objects placed close to the car are not de-
tected and could therefore cause damage to the car or
be damaged themselves.
❒Indications sent by the sensors can be altered by dirt,
snow or ice deposited on the sensors or by ultrasound
systems (e.g. truck pneumatic brakes or pneumatic ham-
mers) near the car.
