Take care not to cover the warning zone in
the door mirrors, or the detection zones on
the front and rear bumpers with adhesive
labels or other objects; they may hamper
correct operation of the system.
Parking sensors
For more information, refer to the
General recommendations on the use
of driving and manoeuvring aids.
This system detects and signals the proximity of
obstacles (e.g. pedestrian, vehicle, tree, barrier)
using sensors located in the bumper.
Rear parking sensors
► Engage reverse gear to start the system
(conrmed by an audible signal).
The system is switched o when reverse gear is
disengaged.
Audible assistance
The system signals the presence of obstacles
within the sensors’ detection zone.
The proximity information is given by an
intermittent audible signal, the frequency of
which increases as the vehicle approaches the
obstacle.
When the distance between the vehicle and
the obstacle becomes less than about thirty
centimetres, the audible signal becomes
continuous.
The sound emitted by the speaker (right or
left) indicates the side on which the obstacle is
located.
Visual assistance
This supplements the audible signal by
displaying bars on the screen that move
progressively nearer to the vehicle (green: more
distant obstacles; yellow: close obstacles; red:
very close obstacles).
When the obstacle is very close, the "Danger"
symbol is displayed on the screen.
Front parking sensors
Supplementing the rear parking sensors, the
front parking sensors are triggered when an
obstacle is detected in front and the speed of the
vehicle is below 6 mph (10 km/h).
Front parking sensor operation is suspended if
the vehicle stops for more than three seconds in
forward gear, if an obstacle is no longer detected
or the vehicle speed exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h).
The sound emitted by the speaker (front
or rear) locates the obstacle relative to
the vehicle, whether in front of or behind it on
its path.
Deactivation/Activation
The settings are changed via the vehicle
conguration menu.
