The selection is accompanied by
this indicator lamp coming on.
Parking space search
F You should drive at a distance of between 0.50 m and 1.50 m from the row of parked
vehicles, without ever exceeding 19 mph
(30
km/h), until the system finds an available
space.
The parking space search stops over this limit.
The function automatically deactivates once
the vehicle speed exceeds 31 mph (50 km/h).
For "parallel" parking, the space must at
a minimum be equal to the length of your
vehicle plus 0.60 m.
For "bay" parking, the width of the space
must be equal to the width of your vehicle
plus 0.70 m.
If the parking sensors function has been
deactivated in the Driving/Vehicle menu
of the touch screen, it will be automatically
reactivated when the system is activated. When the system finds an available space,
"
OK " is displayed on the parking view,
accompanied by an audible signal.
Preparing for the
manoeuvre
F Move very slowly until the request to stop the vehicle is displayed: " Stop the vehicle"
and the " STOP" sign, accompanied by an
audible signal. Once the vehicle has stopped, an instructions
page is displayed on the screen.
F

T

Visiopark 1 or Visiopark 2 and the parking
sensors are automatically activated to help
you monitor the close surrounding area of your
vehicle during the manoeuvre.
During the manoeuvre
The system takes over the vehicle's steering. It
gives instructions on the manoeuvring direction
when starting the entry and exit parallel parking
manoeuvres and for all entry manoeuvres for
bay parking.
There instructions are displayed as a symbol
accompanied by a message:
The manoeuvring status is indicated by these
symbols:The maximum speed limit indications during
the manoeuvres are signalled by these
symbols:
" Reverse "
" Advance "
Manoeuvre in progress (green).
Manoeuvre cancelled or finished
(red) (the arrows indicate that the
driver must take back control of the
vehicle). 5 mph or 7
km/h, for parking space
e nt r y.
3 mph or 5 km/h, for parking space
exit.
During a manoeuvre, the steering wheel
turns quickly: do not hold the steering
wheel, do not place your hand between
the spokes of the steering wheel. Watch
out for anything likely to block the
manoeuvre (loose and bulky clothing,
scar ves, ties, etc.) – Risks of injury!
It is the driver's responsibility to monitor
the state of the traffic continuously,
especially vehicles coming towards you.
The driver should check that no object
or person can hinder the advance of the
vehicle.
The images from the camera(s) displayed
on the touch screen may be distorted by
the relief.
In the presence of areas in shade, or in
conditions of bright sunlight or inadequate
lighting, the image may be darkened and
with lower contrast. The manoeuvre can be interrupted definitively
at any time, either by the driver or by the
system automatically.
By the driver's action:

accompanied by the " Manoeuvre completed "
message on the touch screen.
Deactivation of the function is
confirmed by this indicator lamp
going off, accompanied by an
audible signal. If entering a parking space, the driver may be
required to complete the manoeuvre.
Operating limits
- The system may suggest an inappropriate
parking space (parking prohibited, work
in progress with damaged road sur face,
location alongside a ditch, etc.).
-

T
he system may indicate that a space
was found but will not offer it because of
a fixed obstacle on the opposite side of
the manoeuvre which would not allow the
vehicle to follow a trajectory required for
parking.
-

T
he system is not designed for per forming
the parking manoeuvre on a sharp curve.
-

T
he system does not detect spaces that are
much larger than the vehicle itself or that
are delimited by obstacles that are too low
(pavements, studs, etc.) or too thin (trees,
posts, wire fences, etc.).
-

C
ertain obstacles located in the sensors’
blind spots may not be detected or no
longer be detected during the manoeuvre.
-

C
ertain materials (fabrics) absorb sound
waves: pedestrians may not be detected. -

A f
ront or rear impact to the vehicle can
upset the sensors’ settings, which is not
always detected by the system: distance
measurements may be falsified.
-
I
f the boot is heavily loaded, the tilt of the
vehicle towards the rear may inter fere with
the distance measurements.
The vehicle's sensors and camera(s) may be
impaired by:

Full Park Assist
This system provides active assistance with
parking: it detects a parking space then
operates the vehicle to park it in this space,
without intervention from the driver.
Associated with the EAT8 automatic gearbox,
the system manages control of the steering,
direction, acceleration and braking.
To assist the driver in monitoring the
correct manoeuvring operation, the system
automatically triggers the display of Visiopark 1
or Visiopark 2 and the activation of the parking
sensors.
