PARKING PROXIMITY SENSOR
Operating principle
Ultrasonic detectors, installed in
the vehicle's rear bumper,
“measure” the distance between the
vehicle and an obstacle whilst
reversing.
This measurement is indicated by
beeps which become more frequent
the closer you are to the obstacle,
until they become one continuous
beep when the obstacle is
approximately 30 centimetres from
the vehicle.
There is a beep when changing to
reverse gear.
Note: make sure that the ultrasonic
sensors are not blocked (dirt, mud,
snow, etc.).
Operating faults
When the system detects a fault
there will be a 5 second continuous
beep as a warning when reverse gear
is selected. Contact your RENAULT
Dealer.
This function is an
additional aid that
indicates the distance
between the vehicle and an
obstacle whilst reversing, using
sound signals.
Under no circumstances should it
replace the driver's care or liability
whilst reversing.
The driver should always pay
attention to sudden incidents
during driving: always ensure that
there are no moving obstacles
(such as a child, animal, pram or
bicycle, etc.) or small, narrow
objectssuchasstonesorpostsin
your path when manoeuvring.
