Monitoring
DS3_en_Chap04_conduite_ed01-2015
Rear parking sensors
System consisting of four proximity sensors, located in the rear bumper.
This
detects any obstacle (person, vehicle,
t
ree, 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 be a substitute for
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.

Towing with the RACIng version
Your vehicle cannot be fitted with a
towbar.
The space occupied by the
s
port diffuser prevents this.
Side wind
F Take into account the increased sensitivity t
o side wind.
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. F
I
f the warning lamp and the
S
TOP
warning lamp come on,
s
top the vehicle and switch off
the
engine as soon as possible.
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.
Ty r e s
F Check the tyre pressures of the towing v
ehicle and of the trailer, observing the
re
commended
p
ressures.
Lighting
F Check the electrical lighting and signalling o
n the trailer.
The
rear parking sensors will be
d
eactivated automatically if a genuine
C
ITROËN towbar is used.
