As long as the vehicle is being driven

thereabouts, the parking distance con-
trol system remains on.
Any object located less than approxi -
mately 60 centimetres away from the

, the

noeuvre mode.
Any object located less than approxi -
mately 1 metre away from the front and/
or less than 1.50 metres from the rear
of the vehicle is detected and a beep
sound is emitted.
If there are obstacles located close to
both the front and rear of the vehicle,
only the closest of the two will be ac -
knowledged and the corresponding
front or rear beep sound will be emitted.
If obstacles are detected both to the
front and to the rear of the vehicle at
the same time, and they are both within

corresponding front and rear beeps will
be emitted alternately.
