KNOWING YOUR CAR
IMPORTANT The SEARCH stage in the system logic is
deactivated after about 10 mins if a suitable parking space
is not identified.
❍ Identification: if the system identifies a free parking
space that is a suitable size for the vehicle, it signals its
presence and indicates the actions required for starting the
manoeuvre.
❍ Manoeuvre: the driver is asked to engage reverse gear
and release the steering wheel and manage the accelera-
tor, brake and clutch (in case of manual gearbox) or ac-
celerator and brake (in case of automatic transmission).
During the reverse parking manoeuvre, the system man-
ages the steering wheel automatically.
It suggests that the manoeuvre be concluded in reverse
gear (if the conditions permit) when the continuous sound
of the buzzer for the rear sensors is heard.
IMPORTANT The MANOEUVRE stage in the system log-
ic is deactivated after about 3 mins if the parking ma-
noeuvre has not been completed.
❍ Manoeuvre end: if the parking space is sufficient, the
parking manoeuvre is completed by the system in a sin-
gle movement; the further intervention of the driver is not
required to position the vehicle. If further corrective ma-
noeuvres are required, the system gives back control to the
driver who must complete parking manually.
IMPORTANT Steering will be realigned after reversing
when reverse gear is disengaged. The driver must com-
plete the manoeuvre manually.
The operation of the parking assistance is
based on different components:
❍ front and rear parking sensors;
❍ side sensors;
❍ steering;
❍ wheels and braking system;
❍ instrument panel.
It is necessary to bear in mind that a malfunction
in one of these systems could compromise the op-
eration of the Magic Parking system.
