operation.

The speed of the vehicle must be between 40

and 87 mph (65 and 140 km/h).

These functions are especially suitable for

driving on motorways and main roads.

For more information on the Active Lane

Keeping Assistance and Blind Spot

Monitoring System, refer to the corresponding

sections.

The system may suﬀer temporary

interference in certain weather conditions

(rain, hail, etc.).

In particular, driving on a wet surface or

moving from a dry area to a wet area can

cause false alerts (for example, the presence

of a fog of water droplets in the blind spot

angle is interpreted as a vehicle).

In bad or wintry weather, ensure that the

sensors 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

front and rear bumpers with adhesive labels

or other objects; they may hamper correct

operation of the system.

Parking sensors

Refer to the General recommendations on the

use of driving and manoeuvring aids.

No alert is triggered in the following conditions:

– In the presence of non-moving objects (parked

vehicles, barriers, street lamps, road signs, etc.).

– Oncoming traﬃc.

– Driving on a winding road or a sharp corner.

– When overtaking or being overtaken by a very

long vehicle (lorry, bus, etc.) that is detected

in the rear blind spot but is also present in the

driver’s front ﬁeld of vision.

Active Blind Spot

Monitoring System

Using sensors located in the bumper, this

system signals the proximity of obstacles

(e.g. pedestrian, vehicle, tree, barrier) present in

their ﬁeld of detection.

– When overtaking quickly.

– In very heavy traﬃc: vehicles detected in

front and behind are confused with a lorry or a

stationary object.

In addition to the ﬁxed warning lamp in the door

mirror on the side in question, a correction of

trajectory will be felt if you attempt to cross

a lane marking with the direction indicator

activated, to help you avoid a collision.

This system is the combination of the Active

Lane Keeping Assistance and Blind Spot

Monitoring System.

Audible assistance

Visual assistance

The sound emitted by the speaker (front

or rear) locates the obstacle relative to

the vehicle, whether in front of or behind it on

its path.

conﬁguration menu.

The state of the system stays in the memory

when the ignition is switched oﬀ.

The system signals the presence of obstacles

within the sensors’ detection zone.

The proximity information is given by an

intermittent audible signal, the frequency of

which increases as the vehicle approaches the

obstacle.

When the distance between the vehicle and

the obstacle becomes less than about thirty

centimetres, the audible signal becomes

continuous.

The rear parking sensors system will be

deactivated automatically if a trailer or

bicycle carrier is connected to a towing device

installed in accordance with the

Refer to the General recommendations on the

use of driving and manoeuvring aids.

Principle of operation

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.

Using one or two cameras, the close

surroundings of the vehicle are recorded whilst

manoeuvring 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.

With Visiopark 2, the image is created using

both cameras, when going forward and when

reversing.

With the engine running, these systems allow

views of your vehicle’s close surroundings to

be displayed on the touch screen using one

camera for the Visiopark 1 and two cameras for

Visiopark 2.

If a trailer or a bicycle carrier is ﬁtted to

the towball, the area behind the vehicle

on the view from above goes dark.

The surroundings are reconstructed by the

front camera only.

Visiopark 2

The vehicle has a camera at the front, ﬁtted in

the grille, and a camera at the rear, located close

to the tailgate opening control.

Parking sensors also provide additional

information about the area around the vehicle.

Using these cameras, the system displays the

vehicle's near surroundings on the touch screen,

oﬀering views from the rear of the vehicle (rear

vision) when reverse gear is engaged and views

from the front of the vehicle (front vision) when

the gearbox is in neutral or a gear is engaged.

The rear vision views are similar to those for the

Visiopark 1.

This system provides active parking assistance:

it detects a parking space then operates the

steering system to park in this space.

With a manual gearbox, the driver manages the

accelerator, brakes, gears and clutch.

With an automatic gearbox (EAT6/EAT8), the

driver manages the accelerator, brakes and

gears.

During phases of entry into and exit from a

parking space, the system provides visual and

audible information to the driver in order to make

the manoeuvres safe. Several forward and

reverse manoeuvres may be required.

At any time, the driver can take back control by

holding the steering wheel.

STOP mode, activation of Park Assist restarts

the engine.

The Park Assist system takes control of

the steering for a maximum of 4

manoeuvring cycles. It is deactivated after

these 4 cycles. If the vehicle is not positioned

correctly, take back control to complete the

manoeuvre.

The sequence of manoeuvres and the

driving instructions are displayed in the

instrument panel.

The assistance is activated: the display

of this symbol and a speed limit

indicate that the steering manoeuvres are

controlled by the system: do not touch the

steering wheel.

The assistance is deactivated: the

steering manoeuvres are no longer controlled

by the system: take over the steering.

The 180° view assists with exiting from a parking

space in forward gear, making it possible to

see the approach of vehicles, pedestrians and

cyclists.
