Rear parking sensorsSystem comprising four proximity sensors, located in the rear bumper.
This detects obstacles (person, vehicle, tree,
gate, etc.) behind the vehicle. However, it
cannot detect obstacles located just below the
b u m p e r.
Activation
The system is activated as soon as reverse
gear is engaged, accompanied by an audible
signal. The proximity information is given by:
-
a
n audible signal, which becomes more
rapid as the vehicle approaches the
obstacle,
-

a g
raphic in the multifunction screen, with
blocks which become increasingly closer to
the vehicle (depending on version).
Detection zoneWhen the distance between the rear of the vehicle
and the obstacle is less than thirty centimetres, the
audible signal becomes continuous and the "
dan

ger"
symbol appears in the multifunction screen.
On completion of the manoeuvre, when you exit
reverse gear, the system becomes inactive.
An object, such as a stake, a roadworks
cone or any other similar object may
be detected at the beginning of the
manoeuvre, but may no longer be detected
when the vehicle comes close to it. The parking sensors system cannot in
any circumstances take the place of
vigilance on the part of the driver.
