parktronic - how to .

[OneForTheRoad]

hello folks, ive had the car for 24 hours and trying to work things out .

first up - parktronic switch - is it on when the light is red or off.

what should happen when its working correctly , because I have an awful feeling neither the fronts or rears are working , does it beep when in close proximity to objects and what is the lights on the top of the dash telling me .... also can this be turned off completely in the command software ??

thanks.

Switch is illuminated when system is off

System only active below 10kph

When working you get lights only until within the last zone then beeps and when very close, a constant tone.

Rear and front sensors operate in reverse, only front sensors when in drive.
