PARKING AIDS

The function does not take into ac-

count towing or carrying systems that

are not recognised by the system.

An impact to the under-

side of the vehicle while

manoeuvring (e.g. strik-

Introduction

ing a post, raised kerb or

other street furniture) may result

in damage to the vehicle (e.g. de-

formation of an axle).

To avoid any risk of accident,

have your vehicle checked by an

approved Dealer.

This function is an addi-

tional driving aid.

Under no circumstances

should it replace the

3

driver's care or responsibility

whilst reversing.

The driver should always be

ready for sudden incidents while

driving: always ensure that there

are no small, narrow moving ob-

stacles (such as a child, animal,

pushchair, bicycle, stone, post,

etc.) in the blind spot when ma-

noeuvring.

Location of the ultrasonic sensors 1

Ensure that the area around the ultra-

sonic sensors indicated by the arrows

1 is not obscured (by dirt, mud, snow,

a badly fitted/attached number plate),

impacted, modified (including paint-

work) or obstructed by any accessory

fitted to the rear and/or, depending on

the vehicle, to the front or sides of your

vehicle.

Ultrasonic sensors, indicated by ar-

rows 1, are fitted in the bumpers to de-

tect obstacles near the vehicle.

The function alerts the driver via audi-

ble signals and a display representing

the area where the obstacle was de-

tected.

Depending on the equipment, the sys-

tem detects obstacles behind, in front

and to the sides of the vehicle.

The parking distance control system is

only activated when the vehicle is dri-

ven at a speed below approximately 6

mph (10 km/h).

PARKING AIDS

Operation

In the event of a change in

trajectory during a manoeu-

vre, the risk of collision with

an obstacle may be signalled late.

3

Special case of obstacles detected

on the side

The system is able to detect most ob-

stacles located near the rear and, de-

pending on the equipment, near the

front and sides of the vehicle.

The screen 2 shows the vehicle sur-

roundings, accompanied by beeps.

Depending on the equipment, it may

be necessary to travel a few metres

before the side detection is activated.

The audible signal frequency will in-

crease as the vehicle approaches on

obstacle, until it becomes a solid beep

at approximately 20 cm for an obstacle

detected on the sides and approxi-

mately 30 cm for an obstacle detected

to the front or rear.

If all areas have a grey background,

the whole area around the vehicle is

being monitored:

Depending on the direction of the

wheels, the system determines the tra-

jectory of the vehicle and notifies the

driver if there is a risk or not of a colli-

sion with an obstacle 3 to the side of

the vehicle.

– display A : analysis of vehicle sur-

roundings in progress;

– display B : analysis of vehicle sur-

roundings complete.

The area where the obstacle has been

detected is displayed (display C ). De-

pending on the vehicle, the area is dis-

played in green, orange (or yellow de-

pending on the vehicle) or red, de-

pending on the proximity of the detect-

ed obstacle.

Obstacle detection

If a side obstacle is detected:

gets nearer. The area where the obsta-

cle 3 has been detected is displayed

(display D );

– if there is no risk of collision, no

beep will sound when approaching the

obstacle. Depending on the vehicle,

the area where the obstacle 3 has

been detected is shown interspersed.

In the event of a change in

trajectory during a manoeu-

vre, the risk of collision with

an obstacle may be signalled late.

Guidelines

System servicing/repairs

– In the event of an impact, the alignment of the ultrasonic sensors may be altered and its operation may conse-

quently be affected. Deactivate the function and consult an authorised dealer.

– Any work in the area where the ultrasonic sensors are located (repairs, replacements etc.) must be carried out by a quali-

fied professional.

3

Only an authorised dealer is qualified to service the system.

System disturbance

Some conditions can disrupt or damage the system operation, for example:

– poor weather conditions (rain, snow, hail, black ice, etc.);

– some types of noise (motorcycle, lorry, pneumatic drill, etc.);

– fitting an non-compatible towing ball or hook.

Risk of false alarms or absence of warnings

If the system behaves abnormally contact an authorised dealer.

Limitation of the system operation

– The ultrasonic detection zones should be kept clean and free of any modifications in order to ensure the proper operation

of the system.

– Small objects moving close to the vehicle (motorcycles, bicycles, pedestrians, etc.) may not be recognised by the sys-

tem.

– The system may not detect obstacles that are too close to the vehicle.

– The system may not provide a warning when the other vehicles or obstacles are travelling at a significantly different

speed.

– When there is a change in trajectory during a manoeuvre, the system may be slow in reporting obstacles

Operation

3

This system uses several guidelines

for its operation (mobile for trajectory

and fixed for distance). When the red

zone is reached, use the bumper im-

age to stop accurately.

Fixed guide lines 3

The fixed gauge includes coloured

markers A , B and C indicating the

distance behind the vehicle:

– A (red) at approximately 30 cen-

timetres from the vehicle;

– B (yellow) at approximately 70 cen-

timetres from the vehicle;

– C (green) at approximately 150

centimetres from the vehicle.

When reverse gear is engaged, the

camera 1 located at the rear of the ve-

hicle transmits a view of the area be-

hind the vehicle to the multimedia dis-

play 2 accompanied by three guide

lines 3 , 4 or 5 (fixed, moving and trail-

er guide lines).

Note: make sure that the reversing

camera is not obscured (by dirt, mud,

snow, condensation, etc.).

This gauge remains fixed and indi-

cates the vehicle trajectory if the

wheels are in line with the vehicle.

Moving guide lines 4

This is shown in blue on the multime-

dia screen 2. It indicates the vehicle

trajectory according to the position of

the steering wheel.

Trailer guide lines 5

From the multimedia screen 2, when

reverse gear is engaged, press

the "Settings" button to add or remove

guide lines and to adjust the camera

image settings (brightness, contrast,

etc.).

The screen shows a re-

verse mirror image.

This is shown in blue on the multime-

dia screen 2. This indicates the trajec-

tory of the trailer towbar according to

the steering wheel position. It allows

the driver to position the towbar as

close as possible to the trailer's towing

head.

The frames are a represen-

tation projected on a flat surface.

This information is to not be taken

into account when superimposed

on a vertical object or an object

on the ground.

Objects which appear on the

edge of the screen may be de-

formed.

In very bright light (snow, vehicle

in sunshine, etc.), the camera vi-

sion may be adversely affected.

If the luggage compartment is

open or incorrectly closed, the

"WARNING: Boot Open" mes-

sage appears.

Please refer to the multimedia instruc-

tions for further information.

If a trailer is connected, while in a for-

ward gear press the "Camera" menu in

the "Vehicle" world on your multimedia

screen 2 to enable the camera 1 to

transmit a view of the rear environment

during approximately 30 seconds.

Make sure that the camera

is not obscured (by dirt,

mud, snow, condensation

etc.).

This function is an addi-

tional aid. It cannot,

therefore, under any cir-

cumstances replace the

vigilance or the responsibility of

the driver.

Reversing towards a steep downhill

slope

The driver should always be

ready for sudden incidents while

driving: always ensure that there

are no small, narrow moving ob-

stacles (such as a child, animal,

pushchair, bicycle, stone, post,

etc.) in the blind spot when ma-

noeuvring.

The fixed guidelines 3 show the dis-

tances as further than they actually
