Parking sensors: limits and cleaning

The sensors may not work properly

• On a steep slope, or in snow or rain.
• With low objects such as rocks, or objects higher than the bumper.
• With thin objects such as wires, fences and ropes.
• With objects that absorb sound, such as soft snow, cotton or sponge.
• When a high-frequency radio or aerial is in use on the car.
• When a sensor is frozen (it detects nothing) or covered with dirt, snow or mud.
• Near loud noises that produce ultrasonic waves, such as horns, motorbike engines or lorry air brakes.

Cleaning the sensors

Wash off snow, mud and dust with a soft cloth or low-pressure water.

If there is no beep when reversing

1. 1Check for dirt or anything on the sensor surfaces.
2. 2Check whether the sensors are frozen (remember they cannot detect wires or fences).
3. 3Consider whether the car has been parked for a long time in very hot or cold weather.
4. 4If you cannot find the cause, contact an authorised Jaecoo service centre.
