Exit Warning
How it works
Fig.161 Graphic example.
Fig.162 Door: warning lamp
The door opening warning (Exit Warning) warns
occupants of a possible collision when opening
the door when the vehicle is stationary.
The system monitors, within the limits of the
system itself, the rear and side environment of
the vehicle using the rear sensors ›››page193.
It detects moving objects that approach from
behind, such as cars ›››Fig.161.
If a critical situation is detected when the door
is opened, an alert is given by an audible signal
from the door speaker on the corresponding
side ›››Fig.162. The side assist control lamp
on the side of the corresponding door will also
flash. If the door has already been opened and
another road user has been detected in a crit-
ical situation, the control lamp of the lane de-
parture warning on the corresponding side will
light up permanently.
The brightness of the door opening assistant
display can be adjusted by accessing the Side
Assist menu.
When you want to access the vehicle for the
first time, with the doors closed and locked, the
function will be available 3 minutes after the
first opening of any of the doors. The function
will continue to be available as long as the
vehicle has the ignition connected and is not
moving.
After switching o the ignition, the function will
remain available for approximately 3 minutes.
After that time, the control lamps will light up
indicating the deactivation of the function.
Connecting and disconnecting
The door opening assistant can be switched on
and o by accessing the Assistants menu in
the infotainment system. It can also be found in
the Park Assist Settings menu.
When the vehicle is restarted, the last adjust-
ment in the system will remain active.
Trailer mode
The door opening assistant will be automati-
cally deactivated and it will be impossible to
activate it if the tow hitch is electrically connec-
ted to a trailer or other similar object.
Once the trailer is uncoupled from the vehicle,
the assistant will return to its initial state prior
to the moment when the trailer was electrically
connected.
If the tow hitch is not factory fitted, then the
door opening assistant will have to be deacti-
vated manually when driving with a trailer.
WARNING
●
Always pay close attention to the trac
and the surroundings of the vehicle. The door
opening warning (Exit Warning) cannot re-
place the necessary attention to be paid
by the vehicle’s occupants. Responsibility for
opening the doors and exiting the vehicle al-
ways lies with its occupants.
