centimetres, the audible signal becomes
continuous.
The sound emitted by the speaker (right or
left) indicates the side on which the obstacle is
located.
Adjusting the audible signal
With DS CONNECT RADIO or DS
CONNECT NAV, pressing this
buttonopens the window for adjusting the
volume of the audible signal.
Visual assistance
It supplements the audible assistance, without
taking account of the vehicle's trajectory, by
displaying bars on the screen that represent the
distance between the obstacle and the vehicle
(white: more distant obstacles, orange: 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
still 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.
Side parking sensors
Using four additional sensors located on the
sides of the front and rear bumpers, the system
records the position of fixed obstacles during
the manoeuvre and signals them when they are
located by the sides of the vehicle.
Only fixed obstacles are signalled
correctly. Moving obstacles detected at
the beginning of the manoeuvre may be
signalled mistakenly, while moving obstacles
which appear at the sides of the vehicle and
which were not previously recorded will not be
signalled.
Deactivation / Activation
It is set via the Driving/ Vehicle touch
screen menu.
The state of the system stays in the memory when
the ignition is switched off.
The rear parking sensors system will be
deactivated automatically if a trailer or
bicycle carrier is connected to a towing device
installed in accordance with the
manufacturer's recommendations.
In this case, the outline of a trailer is displayed
at the rear of the image of the vehicle.
The parking sensors are deactivated while the
Park Assist and DS PARK PILOT functions are
measuring a space.
For more information on the Park Assist or the DS
PARK PILOT, refer to the corresponding section.
When the vehicle is started, the visual and
audible aids will be available after the
touch screen has started up.
