Video tutorial

In this video tutorial, you can see how to activate the parking sensors in your car. Some cars may only have front or rear parking sensors, while more equipped vehicles can have both types present. Front and rear parking sensors can be activated or deactivated.

When you start the engine, the front parking sensors activate automatically and beep when you approach an object (kerb, vehicle, motorcycle, etc.) or a person. The rear parking sensors, unlike the front ones, only activate when reverse gear is engaged and beep if you get too close to an object (kerb, vehicle, motorcycle, etc.) or a person.
