Op. No.: 36630

"Front Park Assist" is an excellent system that warns of obstructions when you have limited space in front of the vehicle, for example in tight parking spaces.

The system is activated when the vehicle's speed falls below 15 km/h (9 mph). A signal indicates the distance to the object in front of the vehicle. When an object is detected, the radio's/stereo's sound level is muted and a pulsating "buzzer tone" is emitted from the vehicle's front speakers. The tone starts to sound when approx. 80 cm (59 in) remains to an obstacle and becomes a constant tone when the obstacle is approx. 30 cm (12 in) from the front bumper. The remaining distance is also displayed on the multimedia display in the center console.

In order to differentiate between the front and rear systems, different tone frequencies are used and the sound comes from different speakers, front or rear.

The kit consists of wiring and four sensors mounted in the front. Park Assist can be disabled in traffic jams or similar situations by pressing the button in the center console.

This system can produce "false" signals as a reaction to external sound sources with the same frequency as the system's sensors. Typical sources are the horn, wet tires on asphalt, air brakes and motorcycle exhaust pipes.
