Parking space sensors
System which measures the parking space
available between two vehicles or obstacles. It
measures the size of the space and gives you
information on:
-
t
he possibility of fitting into a free space,
depending on the dimensions of your
vehicle and the distances necessary for
your manoeuvres,
-

t
he level of difficulty of the manoeuvre to
be performed.
The system does not measure spaces which
are clearly much smaller or larger than the size
of the vehicle. The parking space sensor system warning
lamp can have three different states:
-

o
ff: the system is not selected,
-

o
n fixed: the system is selected but the
conditions for measuring are not yet met
(direction indicator not operating, speed too
high) or the measurement is terminated.
-

f
lashing: measurement is in progress or
the message is being displayed. You can select the "parking space sensor"
system by pressing button A
. The fixed
illumination of the warning lamp indicates that
the system is selected.
During the measurement, the message
"Measurement in progress - Vmax 20 km/h
(12 mph)" is displayed in the instrument panel
screen.Displays in the instrument panel

Operation
You have identified a parking space:
F P ress button A to select the system.
F

A
ctivate the direction indicator on the side
where the space is to be measured.
F

D
uring measurement, go for ward the
length of the space, at a speed less than
12 mph (approx. 20 km/h), to prepare for
your manoeuvre.
The system then measures the size of the space.
F

T
he system informs you of the level
of difficulty of the manoeuvre via a
message in the instrument panel screen
accompanied by an audible signal.
F

D
epending on the message issued by the
system, you may or may not be able to
per form the manoeuvre.The system displays the following types of message:
Parking YES
Parking DIFFICULT
Parking NO The system is deselected automatically:
-

w
hen you engage reverse gear,
-
w
hen you switch off the ignition,
-
i
f measurement is not requested,
-
w
ithin five minutes of selection of the
system,
-
i
f the vehicle speed exceeds the
threshold of 45 mph (approx. 70 km/h) for
one minute.
If the lateral distance between your vehicle and
the parking space is too large, the system may
not be able to measure the space.
The system remains available after each
measurement and thus can measure more than
one space during your search.
In bad weather conditions or in winter, make
sure that the sensors are not covered by dirt, or
by ice or snow.
The parking space sensor system deactivates
the front parking sensors during space
measurement when you are in for ward gear.
If there is a fault, have the system
checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.

Parking sensors
Operation
The parking sensors system cannot, in
any circumstances, replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
This system detects any obstacle (person,
vehicle, tree, barrier...) located in front of or
behind the vehicle, however, it will not be able
to detect obstacles located immediately below
the bumper.
An object, such as a stake, a roadworks cone
or any other similar object may be detected at
the start of the manoeuvre but may no longer
be detected when the vehicle moves nearer
to it.
At the front and/or at the rear
This system is comprised of proximity sensors,
installed in the front and/or rear bumper.
Visual and audible assistance
The proximity information is indicated by:
- a
n audible signal which becomes more rapid
as the vehicle approaches the obstacle,
-
a d

iagram in the multifunction screen, with
blocks which move closer to the vehicle.
The obstacle is located in relation to the emission
of the audible signal by the speakers; front or rear
and right or left.
When the distance between the vehicle and
the obstacle is less than approximately thirty
centimetres, the audible signal becomes
continuous and/or the "Danger" symbol appears,
depending on the multifunction screen version.
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.
When the speed of the vehicle is below
about 6 mph (10 km/h), some sources
of noise (motorcycle, lorry, pneumatic
drill, ...) may trigger the audible parking
sensor signals. The parking sensors are switched on
:
-

b

y engaging reverse gear,
-

a

t a speed below 6 mph (10 km/h) in
forward gear.
This is accompanied by an audible signal and
the display of the vehicle in the multifunction
screen.
The parking sensors are switched off :
-

w

hen you exit reverse gear,
-
w
hen the speed is higher than 6 mph
(10

km/h) in for ward gear,
-

w

hen the vehicle has been stationary for
more than three seconds in for ward gear.
