space.
Anything projecting beyond the envelope
of the vehicle (a ladder on the roof, for
example) is not taken into account by the
Park Assist system during a manoeuvre.
In bad weather or in winter, ensure that
the sensors are not covered by road
dirt, ice or snow.
In the event of a fault, have the system
checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If the system is deactivated during a
manoeuvre, the drive should reactivate
it to repeat the measurement. In the event of a fault, this warning

n the event of a puncture, use the
temporary puncture repair kit or the spare

The loss of pressure detected does not
always cause visible bulging of the tyre.
Do not satisfy yourself with just a visual
check. The alert is maintained until the system
is reinitialised.
Snow chains
The system does not have to be
reinitialised after fitting or removing
snow chains. Before reinitialising the system, ensure
that the pressures of the four tyres are
correct for the use of the vehicle and in
line with the recommendations on the
tyre pressure label.
The under-inflation alert can only
be relied on if the reinitialisation of
the system has been done with the
pressures in the four tyres correctly
adjusted.
The under-inflation detection system
does not give a warning if a pressure is
incorrect at the time of reinitialisation.
