When the lights are turned on by the sensor, the fog lights (for versions/markets, where provided)and the rear fog lights may be turned on. Whenthe lights are automatically switched off, the frontand rear fog lights (if activated) are also switchedoff. The next time the lights are switched onautomatically, the fog lights must be reactivatedmanually (if required). With the sensor active, it is possible to flash the headlights but the main beam headlights cannotbe switched on. To activate these lights, turnthe ring nut A to
and activate the fixed dipped
beam headlights. When the lights have been activated automatically and are then switched off by the sensor, thedipped beam headlights are switched off first,followed by the side lights a few seconds later. Ifthe sensor is activated but is malfunctioning,the side lights and dipped beam headlights areswitched on irrespective of the outside light leveland the sensor failure is indicated on theinstrument panel display. It is also possible todeactivate the sensor and switch on the side lightsand dipped beam headlights. IMPORTANT The sensor is unable to detect the presence of fog. Under these circumstances, theselights are therefore turned on manually.

automatically.
“FOLLOW ME HOME” DEVICE
This allows the space in front of the car to be lit
up for a certain period of time.
Activation:with the ignition key on STOP or
removed, pull the stalk towards the steering wheel
within 2 minutes from when the engine is turned
off.
At each single movement of the stalk, the lights
will remain on for an extra 30 seconds up to a
maximum of 210 seconds; then the lights are
switched off automatically.
Each time the stalk is operated, the
warning
light on the instrument panel switches on and the
display also shows a message and how long the

is first moved and stays on until the function is
automatically deactivated. Each time the stalk is
activated it increases the time that the lights
remain on.

unlocked by pressing
), the dipped beam
headlights, side lights and number plate lights are
activated.
The lights remain lit for approximately 25 seconds
unless the doors and boot are locked again with

❒Sensors may detect a non-existent obstacle
(echo noise) due to mechanical noises, for
example while washing the car, in the case of
rain, strong wind, hail.
❒The sensors might not detect objects of a
particular shape or made from particular
materials (very thin poles, trailer beams, panels,
nets, bushes, parking deterrents, rubbish bins,
motor vehicles, etc.). Always take great care
to check that the car and its path are actually
compatible with the parking area identified
by the system.
❒The use of (one or more) tyres or wheels of a
different size to those at the time the car was
purchased could affect the operation of the
system.
❒If the battery is disconnected or is nearly flat,
the Magic Parking system will not be available
until the vehicle is driven for a few hundred
metres on a curved path to initialise the system.
❒If a trailer is fitted (with the plug correctly
inserted) the Magic Parking system will
automatically be disabled.
❒If the Magic Parking system is in "search in
progress" mode, the system could incorrectly
identify a parking space and carry out the
manoeuvre (e.g. by a junction, carriage track,
roads crossing the direction of travel, etc.)
❒In the case of parking manoeuvres on roads on a
gradient, the performance of the system could
be inferior and it may deactivate.❒If a parking manoeuvre is being carried out
between two parked vehicles alongside the
pavement, the Magic Parking system may cause
the car to mount the pavement.
❒Some manoeuvres at very tight bends may not
be carried out.
❒Take great care to ensure that conditions do not
change during the parking manoeuvre (e.g. if
there are persons and/or animals in the parking
area, moving cars, etc.) and intervene
immediately if necessary.
❒During parking manoeuvres, pay attention to
cars approaching from the opposite direction.
Always follow the Highway Code.
IMPORTANT Correct system operation is not
guaranteed if snow chains or emergency wheels
are fitted.
IMPORTANT The correct positioning of the car
inside the parking space detected by the system
depends on various factors, in particular the
circumference of the wheels. For example,
if wheels with a 14" diameter are fitted, the
position of the car inside the parking area could
be slightly different.
