ARKING SENSORS
This system indicates the proximity
of an obstacle (person, vehicle, tree,
gate, etc.) which comes within the
fi eld of detection of sensors located
in the bumper.
Certain types of obstacle (stake,
roadworks cone, etc.) detected ini-
tially will no longer be detected at
the end of the manoeuvre due to the
presence of blind spots.
Visual assistance
This supplements the audible signal
by displaying bars in the multifunc-
tion screen which move progressively
nearer to the vehicle. When the ob-
stacle is near, the "Danger" symbol is
also displayed in the screen.
Audible assistance
The proximity information is given
by an intermittent audible signal, the
frequency of which increases as the
vehicle approaches the obstacle.
The sound emitted by the speaker
(right or left) indicates the side on
which the obstacle is located.
When the distance between the
vehicle and the obstacle becomes
less than approximately thirty centi-
metres, the audible signal becomes
continuous.
This function cannot, in any circum-
stances, take the place of the vigi-
lance and responsibility of the driver.
Rear parking sensors
The system is switched on by engag-
ing reverse gear. This is accompanied
by an audible signal.
The system is switched off when you
exit reverse gear.
