1. How it works
The vehicle is fi tted with a system that facilitates
backing up operations by recognizing obstacles
that could damage the rear bumper.
When the reverse gear is selected, audible beeps
signal that the PA has been activated.
The presence of an obstacle is signalled by
intermittent beeps that increase in frequency until
they become a constant tone when the bumper gets
very close to the obstacle.
Static zone: PA detects obstacles in the external
protection zone and emits an intermittent acoustic
signal, even when the vehicle is at a standstill. The
frequency of the signal increases with the proximity
of the obstacle to the bumper.
Continuous signalling zone: this is the zone nearer
to the bumper. PA detects obstacles and emits a
continuous acoustic signal, whether the vehicle is at a
standstill or moving. If the obstacle is too close to the
bumper, the system may not emit an acoustic signal.
2. General recomendations
• Remember that this device is a valid aid during
parking manoeuvres, but that only the driver is
responsible for evaluating obstacles. He/She must
drive in a careful, prudent way to prevent damage
to persons or property.

3. Only when the cut-off switch is
When using a trailer, the cut-off switch should be
set to OFF in order to prevent the system from
constantly detecting the trailer.
The cut-off switch is located in the vehicle's boot.
