o   help   reduce   fuel   consumption,   hill   start   assist,   the   speed   limiter   to  
a

p

rogrammed   speed,   the   rear   parking   sensors   to   detect   obstacles.

DS3_en_Chap06_conduite_ed01-2014
Rear parking sensors
System consisting of four proximity sensors, located   in   the   rear   bumper.
This detects any obstacle (person, vehicle,
tree,
  gate,   etc.)   behind   the   vehicle,   except  
o

bstacles   located   just   below   the   bumper.
An object, such as a stake, a roadworks cone   or   any   other   similar   object   may b

e   detected   at   the   beginning   of   the
 m

anoeuvre,   but   may   no   longer   be   detected
 w

hen   the   vehicle   comes   close   to   it.
The parking sensor system cannot in any   circumstances   take   the   place   of  
v

igilance   on   the   part   of   the   driver.
The
 
system   is   activated   as   soon   as   reverse  
g

ear
 
is   engaged,   accompanied   by   an   audible  
s

ignal.   The   proximity   information   is   given   by:
-
 
a

n   audible   signal,   which   becomes   more  
r

apid as the vehicle approaches the
obstacle.
-
 
a

 
graphic   (according   to   version)   in   the  
m

ultifunction   screen,   with   blocks   which  
b

ecome   increasingly   closer   to   the   vehicle.
Activation
When the distance between the rear of the vehicle
and
  the   obstacle   is   less   than   thirty   centimetres,   the a

udible   signal   becomes   continuous   and   the   "Danger"
 s

ymbol   appears   in   the   multifunction   screen.
On
  completion   of   the   manoeuvre,   when   you   exit
 r

everse   gear,   the   system   becomes   inactive.

RAcING towbar
Your vehicle cannot be fitted with a
towbar.  The   space   occupied   by   the  
s

port   diffuser   prevents   this.
Ty r e s
F Check  the   tyre   pressures   of   the   towing  v
ehicle   and   of   the   trailer,   observing   the  
re

commended
 p
ressures.
cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases the temperature   of   the   coolant.
As
  the   fan   is   electrically   controlled,   its   cooling  
c

apacity   is   not   dependent   on   the   engine   speed.
F
 
T
o   lower   the   engine   speed,   reduce   your  
s

peed.
The
  maximum   towed   load   on   a   long   incline  
d

epends   on   the   gradient   and   the   ambient  
t

emperature.
In
  all   cases,   keep   a   check   on   the   coolant  
t

emperature.
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.
T o   avoid   overheating   of   the   brakes   on   a   long  
m

ountain   type   of   descent,   the   use   of   engine  
b

raking   is   recommended.
Lighting
F Check   the   electrical   lighting   and   signalling  o
n   the   trailer.
The
  rear   parking   sensors   will   be  
d

eactivated   automatically   if   a   genuine
