VISUAL AND AUDIBLE
REAR PARKING
ASSISTANCE
System consisting of four proximity sen-
sors, installed in the rear bumper.
It detects any obstacle (person, vehicle,
tree, barrier...) located behind the vehi-
cle, however, it will not be able to detect
obstacles located immediately below
the bumper. The parking assistance is
switched on
by engaging reverse gear.
This is accompanied by an audible sig-
nal.
* According to version.
An object, such as a stake, a road-
works cone or any other similar
object may be detected at the start
of the manoeuvre but may no long-
er be detected when the vehicle
moves nearer to it. The proximity information is indicated
by:
- an audible signal which becomes
more rapid as the vehicle approach-
es the obstacle,
- a diagram on the multifunction dis- play * , with blocks which move clos-
er to the vehicle.
When the distance between the rear
of the vehicle and the obstacle is less
than approximately thirty centimetres,
the audible signal becomes continu-
ous and the "Danger" symbol appears,
depending on the multifunction display
version.
The parking assistance is switched off
by moving the gear lever to neutral.
The parking assistance system can-
not, in any circumstances, replace
the need for vigilance and responsi-
bility on the part of the driver.
