Detection zone
The proximity of the obstacle is indi-
cated by:
- an audible signal which becomes
morerapidasthevehicleapproaches
the obstacle,
- a graphic on the multifunction dis-
play, with blocks which become
increasingly close to the vehicle.
The obstacle is located in relation to
the emission of the audible signal by
the speakers; that is, front or rear and
right or left.
Detection
The system is activated when:
- reverse gear is engaged,
- the speed is below 6 mph (10 km/h)
in forward gear.
It is accompanied by an audible signal
and/or displaying of the vehicle on the
multifunction display.
This system consists of four proximity
sensors, located in the front and/or rear
bumper.
It detects any obstacle (person, vehi-
cle, tree, gate, etc.) in front of or
behind the vehicle. However, it cannot
detect obstacles located directly under
the bumper.
When the distance between the vehicle
and the obstacle is less than approxi-
mately twenty-five centimetres, the audi-
ble signal becomes continuous and/or
the “Danger” symbol appears on the
multifunction display.
An object, such as a stake, cone or any
other similar object may be detected
at the beginning of the manoeuvre but
may no longer be detected when the
vehicle comes close to it.
The system becomes inactive again:
The system is deactivated
when the vehicle has been
stationary for more than
3 seconds.
- when you exit reverse gear,
- when the speed is above 6 mph
(10 km/h),
- at the end of the manoeuvre, when
stationary, after a few seconds (front
parking assistance only).
Note: in bad weather or in
winter, ensure that the sen-
sors are not covered with
mud, frost or snow.
