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
the
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.

selection of the type of manoeuvre
(

The
driver can take control at any time by gripping the steering wheel.

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
or
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,
par
ticularly 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
your vehicle can be found on the tyre
pressure
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
i
ncreases fuel consumption.
