Parking Aid: Overview

Parking Aid

OVERVIEW
The parking aid system provides an audible warning to the driver when any obstacles are in the path of the vehicle during a forward (if front sensors are fitted) or reversing maneuver. The purpose of the system is to assist the driver when parking or maneuvering in a restricted space. It is not designed as a crash avoidance system or a replacement for visual interpretation by the driver
All vehicles are fitted with rear parking aid sensors. Higher specification vehicles may also be fitted with front parking aid sensors.
A roof console mounted parking aid switch allows the driver to deactivate the parking aid system if operation is not required.

NOTE:
The switch is only fitted to vehicles with front parking aid sensors.
A parking aid camera is a standard fitment on some variants and optional on others. The parking aid camera supplements the information provided by the parking aid system by providing the driver with a visual display of the area directly behind the vehicle.
