Warning indicators

Visual signals indicate to the driver the rel-
ative distance between the sensors and an
obstacle.

The warning indicator for the front area is
in the instrument cluster. The warning indi-
cator for the rear area is on the roof liner in
the rear.

1 Left side of the vehicle
2 Right side of the vehicle
3 Readiness indicators

Each warning indicator is divided into five
yellow and two red distance segments for
either side of the vehicle.

If yellow readiness indicators

3 under the

distance segments are lit, Parktronic is
ready to measure.

The position of the gear selector lever de-
termines which warning indicators will be
activated.

As your vehicle approaches an object, one
or more distance segments will illuminate,
depending on the distance. When the sev-
enth distance segment illuminates, you
have reached the minimum distance.
