PARKING PROXIMITY SENSOR
2.35
Operating faults
When the system detects an
operation fault there will be a 5-
second continuous beep as a
warning when reverse gear is
selected. This beep is accompanied
by the message Check parking
proximity sensor. Contact your
RENAULT Dealer.
Operating principle
Ultrasonic sensors, installed in the
front and/or rear bumper depending
on the vehicle, measure the distance
between the vehicle and an obstacle.
When reverse gear is selected a beep
sounds.
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 25 centimetres from
the vehicle.
The sound of the beeps from the rear
system differs to that of the front
system.
Note: make sure that the ultrasonic
sensors are not obscured (dirt, mud,
snow, etc.).
This function is an
additional aid that indicates
the distance between the
vehicle and an obstacle,
using sound signals.
It cannot, therefore, under any
circumstances replace the vigilance
or the responsibility of the driver.
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 objects such
as stones or posts in your path
when manoeuvring or approaching
an obstacle.
