the engine following a break-in. In the event of a fault, you are

Park Assist
The system detects a parking space and then
provides assistance with the parallel parking
manoeuvres.
It controls the steering and provides visual and
audible information to the driver.
The driver manages the accelerator, brakes,
gears and the clutch in the case of a manual
gearbox.
The driver can take control at any time by
gripping the steering wheel.The Park Assist system cannot in any
circumstances replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
The driver must remain in control of their
vehicle ensuring that the space remains
clear during the manoeuvre.
In some circumstances, the sensors may
not detect small obstacles located in their
blind spots.
During manoeuvring phases, the steering
wheel per forms rapid turns: do not hold
the steering wheel, do not put your hands
between the spokes of the steering wheel.
Watch out for any object that could block
the manoeuvre (loose clothing, scar ves,
ties, etc.) – Risk of injury! For entry into a parallel parking space the
system does not detect spaces which are
clearly much smaller or larger than the
size of the vehicle.
The "Parking sensors" function activates
automatically during the manoeuvres, it is
possible that a warning lamp illuminates
on the screen, accompanied by an audible
signal, without affecting the parking.
Changing tyre sizes (out-size tyres, winter
tyres, etc.) can inter fere with the correct
operation of the parking assistance
system.
When the Park Assist is active, it prevents
the Stop & Start going into STOP mode.
In STOP mode, activating Park Assist
restarts the engine.

space
