This system indicates the proximity of an
obstacle (person, vehicle, tree, gate, etc.)
which comes within the field of detection of
sensors located in the bumper.
Certain types of obstacle (stake, roadworks
cone, etc.) detected initially will no longer be
detected at the end of the manoeuvre due to
the presence of blind spots.
Parking sensors
This function cannot, in any
circumstances, take the place of the
vigilance and responsibility of the driver.The system is switched on by engaging reverse
gear. This is accompanied by an audible signal.
The system is switched off when you come out
of reverse gear.
Audible assistance
The proximity information is given by an
intermittent audible signal, the frequency of which
increases as the vehicle approaches the obstacle.
The sound emitted by the speaker (right or
left) indicates the side on which the obstacle is
located.
When the distance between the vehicle and
the obstacle becomes less than approximately
thirty centimetres, the audible signal becomes
continuous.
Rear parking sensors
Visual assistance
This supplements the audible signal by
displaying bars in the screen or the instrument
panel which move progressively nearer to
the vehicle. When the obstacle is near, the
"Danger" symbol is displayed.

Front parking sensors
The sound emitted by the speaker (front
or rear) indicates whether the obstacle
is in front or behind.The system will be deactivated
automatically if a trailer is being
towed or a bicycle carrier is fitted on
a towbar (vehicle fitted with a towbar
installed in line with the manufacturer's
recommendations).In bad weather or in winter, ensure
that the sensors are not covered with
mud, ice or snow. When reverse gear is
engaged, an audible signal (long beep)
indicates that the sensors may be dirty.
Certain sound sources (motorcycle,
lorry, pneumatic drill, etc.) may trigger
the audible signals of the parking
sensor system.
In addition to the rear parking sensors, the
front parking sensors are triggered when an
obstacle is detected in front and the speed of
the vehicle is still below 6 mph (10 km/h).
The front parking sensors are interrupted if
the vehicle stops for more than three seconds
in for ward gear, if no further obstacles are
detected or when the speed of the vehicle
exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h).
Deactivation / Activation of the
front and rear parking sensors
Operating fault
In the event of a malfunction of
the system, when reverse gear is
engaged this warning lamp is displayed in the
instrument panel and/or a message appears,
accompanied by an audible signal (short beep).

workshop.

Reversing camera
Clean the reversing camera regularly
using a soft, dry cloth.
The reversing camera is activated automatically
when reverse gear is engaged.
The image is displayed in the touch screen tablet.
The space between the blue lines represents
the width of your vehicle except for the door
mirrors.
The blue lines represent the general direction
of the vehicle.
The red lines represent a distance of about
30 cm beyond the edge of your vehicle's
rear bumper. The audible signal becomes
continuous from this limit.
The green lines represent distances of about 1
and 2 metres beyond the edge of your vehicle's
rear bumper.
The turquoise blue curves represent the
maximum turning circle.
The reversing camera cannot in any
circumstances be a substitute for the
vigilance and responsibility of the driver. Opening the tailgate causes the display
to disappear.
The reversing camera function may be

that the sensors are not covered by
road dirt, ice or snow.
In the event of a fault, have the system
checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If the system is deactivated during a
manoeuvre, the drive should reactivate
it manually to repeat the measurement. If the lateral distance between your vehicle
and the space is too great, the system may
not be able to measure the space.
Anything projecting beyond the envelope
of the vehicle (long or wide load) is not
taken into account by the Park Assist
system during a manoeuvre.
