in particular driving conditions such as when entering a blind crossing or monoeuvring in
areas of reduced visibility.Once activated, this function operates up to9 mph (15 km/h). Above 18 mph (30 km/h), thefunction is deactivated automatically.
This system is a visual aid which in nocircumstances can replace the vigilance and responsibility of the driver. The images provided by the cameras may be deformed by the relief. Thepresence of areas in shade, in sunny conditions, or of low ambient light maydarken the image and reduce contrast.

Park Assist
This system provides active assistance with parking, detecting a parking space then controlling the steering to park in the space. It controls the steering while the driver manages the accelerator, brakes, gears andclutch (manual gearbox). 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. It may be necessary to move for wards and backwards more than once.
During a manoeuvre the steering wheelturns quickly: do not hold the steeringwheel, do not place your hand between
the spokes of the steering wheel and take care with loose and bulky clothing, scarves, handbags... There is a risk of injury.


When Park Assist is activated, itprevents a change to STOP mode of Stop & Start. In STOP mode, activation of Park Assist restarts the engine.


The Park Assist system cannot in anycircumstances replace the care and responsibility of the driver.
The driver must remain in control of their vehicle ensuring that thespace remains clear throughout themanoeuvre. In some circumstances, the sensors may not detect small obstacles located in their blind spots.
The driver can take control at any time bygripping the steering wheel.
The Park Assist s
ystem provides assistance for
the following manoeuvres:


- entr
y into a parallel parking space

- exitin
g from a parallel parking space

- ba
y parking

The Park Assist system takes control of the power steering for a maximumof 4 manoeuvre cycles. The functionis deactivated after these 4 cycles.If you think that your vehicle is notpositioned correctly, you should then take control of the steering to carry outthe manoeuvre.

The Park Assist system cannot workwith the engine off.

The park sensors function is notavailable during parking spacemeasurement. It intervenes later whenmanoeuvring to warn you that your vehicle is approaching an obstacle: theaudible signal becomes continuouswhen the obstacle is less than thir ty centimetres away.
If you have deactivated the parking sensors, they are automatically reactivated during assisted parkingmanoeuvres.


Activation of Park Assist inhibits the blind spot monitoring function.
