Guide to Parallel Parking with Parking Sensors

First of all with car parking sensors you will have a front parking sensor, and a rear parking sensor. Both parking sensors will need to be engaged in order to parallel park with ease. The system from Parking Dynamics is the PD1 electromagnetic parking sensor. It offers the best range on the entire bumper and the corners of the bumper. You will never have to wonder how close you get to the curb, cars around you or other objects with this PD1 parking sensor system. The added benefit of the parking sensor from Parking Dynamics is the “invisible when fitted” design. It requires no maintenance and does not make your bumpers unsightly.

When you place the car in reverse to start backing into the parallel space the reverse parking sensor will engage. It will tell you how close you get to an object. There are three zones. The first has an inconsistent beep, the second zone speeds up a little more, and the third zone is a constant beep. It is this last zone that tells you when you are close enough to cause damage. In other words you will need to reposition your vehicle.

The front parking sensor works a little differently. Once the car is in position in which you need to pull forward to straighten out the vehicle you need to press the button under the dash. This button engages the front parking sensor. You can also engage the sensor as you begin. This way when the sensor gets close to the back bumper of the car in front of you, you will know if you can turn the wheel and swing into the space without repositioning.

The front parking sensor offers two zones. The first is an inconsistent beep and the second is the constant sound. By using the electromagnetic parking sensors you never have to worry about hitting another car when you parallel park. The PD1 parking sensor is a warning system to avoid accidents in any situation as well as to make parallel parking easier.
