Volkswagen Amarok Rear Parking Sensors with Optical Display
Make reversing and parking your Volkswagen Amarok 2H easier, safer and more precise with this factory-style Optical Parking System rear retrofit. The system adds Volkswagen Amarok rear parking sensors using original components and integrates both audible warnings and a visual representation of nearby obstacles into the compatible navigation or radio display.
Because the Amarok is a larger vehicle, low obstacles and the area directly behind the rear bumper can be difficult to judge from the driver’s seat. Four ultrasonic sensors sit flush within the rear bumper and monitor the surrounding area while you reverse. As a result, you gain better distance control when approaching walls, bollards, parked vehicles and other obstacles.
Unlike a basic audio-only parking sensor system, the Optical Parking System also shows the position of detected obstacles on the vehicle’s compatible display. Consequently, you can use both sound and visual information to manoeuvre with greater confidence while preserving a clean, factory-style appearance.
How It Works
When reverse gear is selected, the four ultrasonic sensors in the rear bumper begin scanning the area behind the vehicle. They measure the distance to nearby obstacles and send this information to the parking system control unit.
The system then provides audible warnings through the included buzzer. At first, the warning tones sound slowly while an obstacle is further away. Then, as the distance decreases, the tones become more frequent.
At the same time, the compatible navigation or radio display shows a visual representation of the vehicle and indicates the location of detected obstacles. This combination of audible and optical warnings makes it easier to judge both distance and position while reversing.
You can also switch the system on or off using the dedicated park assistance button.
