Park Assist
This system provides active assistance with parking, detecting a parking space then controlling the steering to park in the space.
I t controls the steering while the driver manages the accelerator, brakes, gears and clutch (manual gearbox). During phases of entry into and exit from
a
parking space, the system provides visual and audible information to the driver in order to make the manoeuvre safe. It may be necessary to move
f
or wards and backwards more than once.
The
Park Assist system cannot in any
c
ircumstances replace the need for
v
igilance on the part of the driver.
The
driver must remain in control of
t
heir vehicle ensuring that the space
r
emains clear during the manoeuvre.
In
some circumstances, the sensors
m
ay not detect small obstacles located
i
n their blind spots. Changing
tyre sizes (out-size tyres,
w
inter tyres, ...) can inter fere with
t
he correct operation of the parking
a
ssistance system.
During
a manoeuvre the steering wheel
t
urns quickly: do not hold the steering
w
heel, do not place your hand between
t
he spokes of the steering wheel and
t
ake care with loose and bulky clothing,
s
carves, handbags... There is a risk of
in
jury. For
entry into a parking space (parallel
p
arking) the system does not detect
s
paces which are clearly much smaller
o
r larger than the size of the vehicle.

Under-inflation detection
The system monitors the pressures in the four t
yres, once the vehicle is moving.
It
compares the information given by the four
w
heel speed sensors with reference values,
which must be reinitialised ever y time the
tyre pressures are adjusted or a wheel
changed .
The
system triggers an alert as soon as it
d
etects a drop in the inflation pressure of one
o
r more tyres. The
under-inflation detection system
d
oes not replace the need for vigilance
o
n the part of the driver.
This
system does not avoid the need to
c
heck the tyre pressures (including the
s
pare wheel) every month as well as
b
efore a long journey.
Driving
with under-inflated tyres impairs
r
oad holding, extends braking distances
a
nd causes premature tyre wear,
p
articularly under arduous condition
(
high loading, high speed, long journey).
System
which automatically checks the pressures of the tyres while driving.
The inflation pressures defined for
y
our vehicle can be found on the tyre
p
ressure label.
See
the "Identification markings"
s
ection.
Tyre
pressures should be checked
w
hen the tyres are "cold" (vehicle
s
topped for 1 hour or after a journey of
l
ess than 6 miles (10 km) at moderate
s
peeds).
Other wise
(when hot), add 0.3 bar to
t
he pressures shown on the label.
Driving
with under-inflated tyres

ncreases fuel consumption.

Electronic stability control (ESC)
Definitions
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD)
This system improves the stability and manoeuvrability of your vehicle when braking
a
nd contributes towards improved control in
c
orners, in particular on poor or slippery road
su
rfaces.
The
ABS prevents wheel lock in the event of
em
ergency
b
raking.
The
electronic brake force distribution system
m
anages the braking pressure wheel by wheel.
Emergency braking assistance
(EBA)
In an emergency, this system enables you to reach the optimum braking pressure more
q
uickly and therefore reduce the stopping
di
stance.
It
is triggered according to the speed at which
t
he brake pedal is pressed. This is felt by a
r
eduction in the resistance of the pedal and an
i
ncrease in the effectiveness of the braking.
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
The ASR system (also known as Traction Control) optimises traction in order to limit
w
heel slip by acting on the brakes of the driving
w
heels and on the engine. It also improves
t
he directional stability of the vehicle on
a
cceleration.
Dynamic stability control (DSC)
If there is a difference between the path followed by the vehicle and that required by
t
he driver, the DSC monitors each wheel and
a
utomatically acts on the brake of one or more
w
heels and on the engine to return the vehicle
t
o the required path, within the limits of the laws
o
f physics.
