pressing the UP/DOWN buttons.

The first time one of the UP/DOWN buttons is pressed, the screen

brightness can be adjusted. bumpers are free of mud, dirt, snow or ice.
The adjustment made can be seen immediately and does not affect
the brightness of the warning lights. When approaching obstacles in front of or behind the vehicle, the
sensors give the driver information on how far away the obstacle is
The information on the presence of the obstacle and how far away
it is transmitted to the driver by way of acoustic signals, which
become more frequent as the obstacle approaches, and visual
signals on the TFT display.
By integrating direct visual information with the acoustic and visual
information generated by the system, the driver can avoid coming
into contact with obstacles when parking.

Warning
However, the responsibility when parking and in other

Indeed, the system has only been designed as an aid when
parking since it detects obstacles that are outside the driver's
range of visibility.
The use of sensors is therefore not a substitute for the care
and attention of the driver when parking and checking for the
presence of persons or objects.

EPB Electric Parking Brake:
the system operates by way of an ECU and an electric motor on the brake shoes of the rear brakes.
F1-Trac Traction control derived from the technologies used in the racing sector. The system can estimate the maximum available
grip in advance by continuously monitoring the relative wheel speed and using an auto-adaptive operation logic.
Comparing this information with the vehicle dynamics model stored in the control system, F1-Trac, optimises the vehicle
behaviour by controlling engine torque delivery.
