Once
  the   state   of   charge   of   the   battery   drops

Park Assist
This system provides active assistance with parking, detecting a parking space then controlling the steering to park in the space.
I t   controls   the   steering   while   the   driver   manages   the   accelerator,   brakes,   gears   and   clutch   (manual   gearbox).   During   phases   of   entry   into   and   exit   from  
a

  parking   space,   the   system   provides   visual   and   audible   information   to   the   driver   in   order   to   make   the   manoeuvre   safe.   It   may   be   necessary   to   move  
f

or wards   and   backwards   more   than   once.
The
  Park   Assist   system   cannot   in   any  
c

ircumstances   replace   the   need   for  
v

igilance   on   the   part   of   the   driver.
The
  driver   must   remain   in   control   of  
t

heir   vehicle   ensuring   that   the   space  
r

emains   clear   during   the   manoeuvre.
In
  some   circumstances,   the   sensors  
m

ay   not   detect   small   obstacles   located  
i

n   their   blind   spots. Changing
  tyre   sizes   (out-size   tyres,  
w

inter   tyres,   ...)   can   inter fere   with  
t

he   correct   operation   of   the   parking  
a

ssistance   system.
During
  a   manoeuvre   the   steering   wheel  
t

urns   quickly:   do   not   hold   the   steering  
w

heel, do not place your hand between
the
  spokes   of   the   steering   wheel   and  
t

ake   care   with   loose   and   bulky   clothing,  
s

carves,   handbags...   There   is   a   risk   of  
in

jury. For
  entry   into   a   parking   space   (parallel  
p

arking)   the   system   does   not   detect  
s

paces   which   are   clearly   much   smaller  
o

r   larger   than   the   size   of   the   vehicle.
This
  "parking   assistance"   system

  selection   of   the   type   of   manoeuvre  
(
