Driving
zone and in the vehicle path defined by the
direction of the steering wheel.
Malfunction
both within the sensors’ detection zone and in
the vehicle path defined by the direction of the
steering wheel.
If the event of a malfunction, this
warning lamp lights up on the
instrument panel, accompanied by the
display of a message.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
This system detects and signals the proximity of
obstacles (e.g. pedestrian, vehicle, tree, barrier)
using sensors located in the bumper.
The system may be temporarily disturbed
by certain weather conditions (e.g. heavy
rain, hail or extreme temperature changes).
In particular, driving on a wet road or going
from a dry to a wet area can cause false
alerts (e.g. presence of a cloud of water
droplets in the blind spot interpreted as a
vehicle).
Rear parking sensors
The proximity information is given by an
intermittent audible signal, the frequency of
which increases as the vehicle approaches the
obstacle.
System startup is available when reverse gear is
engaged.
It is indicated by an audible confirmation signal
and a display indication.
When the distance between the vehicle
and the obstacle becomes less than about
thirty centimetres, the audible signal becomes
continuous.
The sound emitted by the speaker (right or
left) indicates the side on which the obstacle is
located.
The audible signal is automatically suspended
when the vehicle is stationary for a few seconds.
The audible signal is automatically restored
when the vehicle is moving again or if the
obstacle approaches the vehicle.
In bad or wintry weather, ensure that the
radars are not covered by mud, ice or snow.
Take care not to cover the warning zone
in the door mirrors, or the detection zones
on the rear bumper, with adhesive labels or
other objects; they may hamper the correct
operation of the system.
If an obstacle is detected as soon as
the reverse gear is engaged, an audible
detection signal is given directly instead of the
audible confirmation signal.
If no audible signal is given, the display
indication is not shown or a warning message
appears, the system has a failure.
Audible assistance
Parking sensors
For more information, refer to the General
recommendations on the use of driving
and manoeuvring aids.
Depending on version, in the example shown,
only the obstacles present in the shaded area
will be signalled by the audible assistance.
The system signals the presence of obstacles
which are both within the sensors’ detection
