If the driver carries out a voluntary or involuntary action
on the steering during the parking manoeuvre (touching it
or preventing its movement), the manoeuvre will be in-
terrupted.
If the road surface is very uneven or there are obstacles un-
der the wheels affecting the movement of the vehicle, pre-
venting it from continuing along the correct trajectory, the
manoeuvre may be interrupted.
Conclusion of manoeuvre
If the size of parking space permits, the parking manoeu-
vre may be performed in one go, when reverse gear is re-
leased the wheels will be realigned and the manoeuvre will
be considered completed and the system will consequent-
ly be deactivated. If the size of the parking space is small-
er, it may take several manoeuvres, the driver will be ad-
vised to complete the parking manoeuvre manually via a
dedicated messages in the instrument panel display.
General warnings
❍ The ultimate responsibility when parking and carrying
out other dangerous manoeuvres always rests with the dri-
ver. Always make sure that there are no people, animals or
objects in the way when carrying out these manoeuvres.
The Magic Parking system (like parking sensors) is de-
signed to assist drivers: in all cases, you must always pay
the utmost attention during potentially dangerous ma-
noeuvres, even when these are carried out a low speed:
❍ If the sensors are affected by impacts that alter their
position, the operation of the system may be greatly re-
duced.
❍ If the sensors are dirty, covered in snow, ice, mud or
paint, the operation of the system could be greatly reduced.
❍ It is vital that the sensors are always clean in order for
the system to work properly. Take great care when clean-
ing the sensors not to scratch or damage them; avoid us-
ing dry, rough or hard cloths. The sensors should be washed
with clean water with possibly some car shampoo added.
In washing stations, clean the sensors quickly, keeping the
steam jet/high pressure washing nozzles at least 10 cm
away from the sensors.
If you wish to stop the steering wheel with
your hands during a manoeuvre, it is advis-
able to handle it firmly on the outer rim. Do
not try and keep your hands on the inside or hold
the actual spokes.
