Visiopark 1
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids .


As soon as reverse gear is engaged with the
engine running, this system displays views of
your vehicle’s close surroundings on the touch
screen using a camera located at the rear of the
vehicle.




The screen is divided into two parts with a
contextual view and a view from above the
vehicle in its close surroundings.
The parking sensors supplement the information
on the view from above the vehicle.
Various contextual views may be displayed:
–
Standard view
.
–

180° view
.
–

Zoom view
.
AUTO mode is activated by default.
In this mode, the system chooses the best view
to display
(standard or zoom).
You can change the type of view at any time
during a manoeuvre.
The system status is not saved when the ignition
is switched off.
Principle of operation

Using the rear camera, the vehicle's close
surroundings are recorded during manoeuvres
at low speed.
An image from above your vehicle in its close
surroundings is reconstructed (represented
between the brackets) in real time and as the
manoeuvre progresses.
It facilitates the alignment of your vehicle when
parking and allows obstacles close to the vehicle
to be seen. It is automatically deleted if the
vehicle remains stationary for too long.

AUTO mode

This mode is activated by default.
Using sensors in the rear bumper, the automatic

the view from above (zoom) as an obstacle is
approached at the level of the red line (less than
30
cm) during a manoeuvre.
Standard view

The area behind the vehicle is displayed on the
screen. The blue lines
1 represent the width of your
vehicle, with the mirrors unfolded; their direction
changes according to the position of the steering
wheel.
The red line 2 represents a distance of 30 cm
from the rear bumper; the two blue lines 3 and 4
represent 1 m and 2 m, respectively.
This view is available with AUTO mode or in the
view selection menu.
Zoom view

The camera records the vehicle's surroundings
during the manoeuvre in order to create a
view from above the rear of the vehicle in its
near surroundings, allowing the vehicle to be
manoeuvred around nearby obstacles.
This view is available with AUTO mode or in the
view selection menu.

124
Driving
Obstacles may appear further away than
they actually are.
It is important to monitor the sides of the
vehicle during the manoeuvre, using the
mirrors.
Parking sensors also provide additional
information about the area around the vehicle.
180° view

The 180° view facilitates reversing out of a
parking space, making it possible to see the
approach of vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists.
This view is not recommended for carrying out a
complete manoeuvre.
It features 3 areas: left A, centre B and right C.
This view is only available via the view selection
menu.
Park Assist
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids .
This system provides active parking
assistance:
it detects a parking space then operates the
steering system to park in this space.
With a manual gearbox, the driver manages the
accelerator, brakes, gears and clutch.
With an automatic gearbox (EAT6/EAT8), the
driver manages the accelerator, brakes and
gears.
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 manoeuvres safe. Several forward and
reverse manoeuvres may be required.
At any time, the driver can take back control by
holding the steering wheel.
In some circumstances, the sensors may
not detect small obstacles located in their
blind spots.
The Park Assist system cannot work with the engine off.


The Park Assist system provides assistance for
the following manoeuvres:
A. Entry into a "parallel" parking space.
B. Exit from a "parallel" parking space.
C. Entry into a "bay" parking space.
During manoeuvring phases, the steering
wheel performs 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 interfere
with the manoeuvre (loose clothing, scarves,
ties, etc.)- risk of injury!
When Park Assist is activated, it prevents
Stop & Start from going into STOP mode.
In STOP mode, activation of Park Assist
restarts the engine.
The Park Assist system takes control of the steering for a maximum of 4
manoeuvring cycles. The function is
deactivated after these 4 cycles. If you think
that your vehicle is not positioned correctly,

125
Driving
6you should then take over the steering to
finish the manoeuvre.
The sequence of manoeuvres and the driving instructions are displayed on the
touch screen.
Assistance is activated: the display of this symbol and a speed limit indicate
that the steering manoeuvres are controlled
by the system: do not touch the steering
wheel.
Assistance is deactivated: the display of this symbol indicates that the
steering manoeuvres are no longer controlled
by the system: you must take over the
steering.
You should always check the surroundings of your vehicle before
starting a manoeuvre.
The parking sensors function is not available during parking space
measurement. It intervenes later when
manoeuvring to warn you that your vehicle is
approaching an obstacle: the audible signal
becomes continuous when the obstacle is
less than thirty centimetres away.
If you have deactivated the parking sensors,
they are automatically reactivated during
assisted parking manoeuvres.
Activation of Park Assist deactivates the Blind Spot Monitoring.
