Operation  
►ꢀ When approaching a parking area, reduce the  
This system provides active parking assistance  
for vehicles fitted with a manual gearbox: it  
detects a parking space and then steers in  
the appropriate direction to park in this space  
while the driver controls the driving direction,  
engagement of gears, acceleration and braking.  
To assist the driver in monitoring the correct  
manoeuvring operation, the system automatically  
triggers the display of Reversing camera or 360  
Vision and the activation of the parking sensors.  
The system performs the measurements of  
available parking spaces and calculations of  
distances to obstacles using ultrasonic sensors  
built into the front and rear bumpers of the  
vehicle.  
speed of your vehicle to 19 mph (30 km/h) or less.  
Activating the function  
The function is activated in the Vehicle /  
Driving touch screen menu.  
Select "Park Assist".  
A manoeuvre selection page is displayed on the  
touch screen: by default, the "Entry" page if the  
vehicle has been running since the ignition was  
switched on, otherwise, the "Exit" page.  
►ꢀ Select the type and side of the manoeuvre to  
activate the parking space search.  
The selected manoeuvre can be changed at any  
time, even while searching for an available space.  
This indicator lamp comes on to confirm  
the selection.  
Activating the function deactivates the  
Blind Spot Detection.  
You can deactivate the function at any  
time until the parking space entry or exit  
manoeuvre begins, by pressing the arrow  
located in the top left-hand corner of the  
display page.  
Parking space search  
►ꢀ 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).  
The system assists with the following  
manoeuvres:  
149  
Driving

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.  
Once the vehicle has stopped, an instructions  
page is displayed on the screen.  
►ꢀ To prepare for the manoeuvre, follow the  
instructions.  
The start of the manoeuvre is indicated by the  
"Manoeuvre under way" onscreen message and  
an accompanying audible signal.  
Reversing is indicated by this message: “Release  
the steering wheel, reverse”.  
The Reversing camera or 360 Vision and the  
parking sensors are automatically activated  
to help you monitor the area immediately  
surrounding your vehicle during the manoeuvre.  
The maximum speeds during manoeuvres are  
indicated by these symbols:  
5 mph or 7 km/h, for parking space entry.  
7
5
3 mph or 5 km/h, for parking space exit.  
During manoeuvring phases, the steering  
wheel performs rapid turns: do not hold  
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.  
the steering wheel or put your hands between  
the spokes of the steering wheel. Watch out  
for any objects that could interfere with the  
manoeuvre (loose clothing, scarf, tie, etc.).  
Risk of injury!  
It is the driver's responsibility to constantly  
monitor the traffic, especially vehicles coming  
towards you.  
The driver should check that no objects or  
people are obstructing the vehicle’s path.  
During the manoeuvre  
The system controls the vehicle’s steering. It  
gives instructions on the manoeuvring direction  
when starting "parallel" entry and exit parking  
manoeuvres, and for all "bay" entry manoeuvres.  
There instructions are displayed as a symbol  
accompanied by a message:  
The images from the camera(s) displayed  
on the touch screen may be distorted by  
the terrain.  
"Reverse".  
In shady areas, or in inadequate sunlight  
or lighting conditions, the image may be  
darkened and with lower contrast  
“Go forwards".  
When the system finds an available space, "OK" is  
displayed on the parking view, accompanied by an  
audible signal.  
The manoeuvring status is indicated by these  
symbols:  
The manoeuvre can be permanently interrupted at  
any time, either by the driver or automatically by  
the system.  
Interruption by the driver:  
– taking over control of the steering.

– activating the direction indicator lamps on the  
opposite side to that of the manoeuvre.  
– unfastening the driver's seat belt.  
– switching off the ignition.  
The manoeuvre symbol is displayed in red,  
accompanied by the message “Manoeuvre  
completed” on the touch screen.  
When the function is deactivated, this  
indicator lamp goes off, accompanied by  
an audible signal.  
Malfunctions  
When the function is not activated, the  
temporary flashing of this indicator lamp  
and an audible signal indicate a system  
malfunction.  
If the malfunction occurs while the system is in  
use, the indicator lamp goes off.  
Interruption by the system:  
– vehicle exceeding the speed limit of 5 mph  
(7 km/h) during parking space entry manoeuvres,  
or 3 mph (5 km/h) during parking space exit  
manoeuvres.  
– activation of anti-slip regulation on a slippery  
road.  
– opening of a door or the boot.  
– engine stall.  
– system malfunction.  
– after 10 manoeuvres to enter or exit a parallel  
parking space and after 7 manoeuvres to enter a  
parking bay.  
Interrupting the manoeuvre automatically  
deactivates the function.  
The manoeuvre symbol is displayed in red,  
accompanied by the "Manoeuvre cancelled"  
message on the touch screen.  
A message prompts the driver to take back  
control of the vehicle.  
When entering a parking space, the driver may be  
required to complete the manoeuvre.  
If the parking sensor malfunction  
occurs during use, indicated by one  
of these warning lamps coming on, it causes the  
function to deactivate.  
In the event of a malfunction, have the system  
checked by a dealer or a qualified workshop.  
In the event of a power steering  
malfunction, this warning lamp is  
displayed on the instrument panel, accompanied  
by a warning message.  
Operating limits  
– The system may suggest an inappropriate  
parking space (parking prohibited, work in  
progress with damaged road surface, location  
alongside a ditch, etc.).  
– The system may indicate that a space has  
been 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.  
– The system may indicate that a space has been  
found but the manoeuvre will not be triggered,  
because the width of the lane is insufficient.  
– The system is not designed for performing the  
parking manoeuvre on a sharp bend.  
– The 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.).  
– If the boot is heavily loaded, the tilt of the  
vehicle towards the rear may interfere with the  
distance measurements.  
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.  
Contact a dealer or a qualified workshop.  
DS PARK PILOT  
Refer to the General recommendations on the use  
of driving and manoeuvring aids.  
This system provides active parking assistance  
for vehicles fitted with the EAT8 automatic  
gearbox: it detects a free "parallel" or "bay"  
parking space and then operates the vehicle,  
parking it with no need for driver intervention. It  
also allows you to drive out of a "parallel parking"  
space automatically.  
The function is deactivated after a few  
seconds; this warning lamp goes off and  
the function returns to the initial display.  
End of the parking space entry or exit  
manoeuvre  
The vehicle stops as soon as the manoeuvre is  
completed.  
The system controls the steering, direction,  
acceleration and braking. The system measures
