SENSORS
The system detecting the distance
from obstacles uses 4 sensors housed
in the front bumper (fig. 156) and 4
sensors housed in the rear bumper
(fig. 157).
To ensure proper opera-
tion of the parking assist
system, it is essential that
the sensors placed on bumpers
are always free from mud, dirt,
snow or ice.
When cleaning the sen-
sors, take the greatest
care not to scratch or
damage them; to this regard, do
not use dry, rough or hard cloths.
Sensors must be washed with
clean water, to which car sham-
poo can be added, if necessary. In
car-wash stations that use high-
pressure or steam-jet hydraulic
cleaning machines, clean the sen-
sors fast by keeping the nozzle at
a distance of at least 10 cm.

When the bumper needs
re-painting or the sensor
area needs touching-up
with paint, contact a Lancia
Dealership only. Incorrect appli-
cation of paint could adversely
affect the parking sensor opera-
tion.
