Driving
This section describes the use of the parking brake, the manual,electronic or automatic gearbox, the gear efficiency indicator and Stop & Start to help reduce fuel consumption, hill start assist, the speed limiter to avoid exceeding a programmed speed, cruise control
to maintain a programmed speed, the rear parking sensors to detectobstacles.

Rear parking sensors
System consisting of four proximity sensors,
located in the rear bumper.
This detects an
y obstacle (person, vehicle,
tree, gate, etc.) behind the vehicle, except
obstacles located just below the bumper.
An object, such as a stake, a roadworks cone or any other similar object may be detected at the beginning of themanoeuvre, but may no longer be detected when the vehicle comes close to it.
The parking sensor system cannot, in any circumstances, take the place of the vigilance and responsibility of the driver. The system is activated as soon as reverse
gear is engaged, accompanied by an audible
signal. The proximity information is given by:


- an audible signal, which becomes
more rapid as the vehicle approaches
th
e obstacle.

- a graphic (according to version) in the
multifunction screen, with blocks whichbecome increasingly closer to the vehicle.

Activation
When the distance between the rear of thevehicle and the obstacle is less than thirtycentimetres, the audible signal becomescontinuous and the "Danger" symbol appears
in the multifunction screen.
On completion of the manoeuvre, when you exit
reverse gear, the system becomes inactive.
