still below 6 mph (10 km/h).

The parking sensors are deactivated while the

Park Assist and DS PARK PILOT functions are

vehicle’s close surroundings on the touch screen

using a camera located at the rear of the vehicle.

Principle of operation

Rear vision

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.

To activate the camera, located on the tailgate,

engage reverse and keep the speed of the vehicle

below 6 mph (10 km/h).

The system is deactivated:

– Automatically, at speeds above approximately

12 mph (20 km/h),

– Automatically, if the tailgate is opened.

– When changing out of reverse gear.

– By pressing the white arrow in the upper-left

corner of the touch screen.

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 to display the

best view (standard or zoom).

You can change the type of view at any time

during a manoeuvre.

The state of the function is not saved when the

ignition is switched off.

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.

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.

AUTO mode

Parking sensors also provide additional

information about the area around the vehicle.

180° view

Zoom view

This mode is activated by default.

Using sensors in the rear bumper, the automatic

view changes from the rear view (standard) to

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 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.

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.

The area behind the vehicle is displayed on the

screen.
