This system indicates the proximity of an obstacle (person, vehicle, tree, gate, etc.)
w
hich comes within the field of detection of
s
ensors located in the bumper.
Certain
types of obstacle (stake, roadworks
c
one, etc.) detected initially will no longer be
d
etected at the end of the manoeuvre due to
t
he presence of blind spots.
Parking sensors
This function cannot, in any
circumstances, take the place of the
v
igilance of the driver. The
system is switched on by engaging reverse
g
ear. This is accompanied by an audible signal.
The system is switched off when you come out
o
f reverse gear.
Audible assistance
The proximity information is given by an i
ntermittent audible signal, the frequency of which i
ncreases as the vehicle approaches the obstacle.
The
sound emitted by the speaker (right or left)
i
ndicates the side on which the obstacle is located.
When the distance between the vehicle and
the
obstacle becomes less than approximately
t
hirty centimetres, the audible signal becomes
c
ontinuous.
Rear parking sensors
Visual assistance
This supplements the audible signal by d isplaying bars in the screen or the instrument
p
anel which move progressively nearer to
t
he 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
i
s in front or behind.
The
system will be deactivated
a
utomatically if a trailer is being
t
owed or a bicycle carrier is fitted on
a
towbar (vehicle fitted with a towbar
i
nstalled in line with the manufacturer's
r
ecommendations).In bad weather or in winter, ensure
that the sensors are not covered with
mud,
ice or snow. When reverse gear is
e
ngaged, an audible signal (long beep)
i
ndicates that the sensors may be dirty.
Certain
sound sources (motorcycle,
l
orry, pneumatic drill, etc.) may trigger
t
he audible signals of the parking
s
ensor system.
In
addition to the rear parking sensors, the
f
ront
parking sensors are triggered when an
o
bstacle 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
t
he
vehicle stops for more than three seconds
i
n
for ward gear, if no further obstacles are
d
etected or when the speed of the vehicle
exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h).
