This system measures the size of a free parking space between two vehicles or obstacles.
Stop & Start system
This system puts the engine temporarily into standby during stops in the traffic (traffic lights, traffic jams, etc...). The engine
restarts automatically as soon as you want to move off. The Stop & Start system reduces fuel consumption and exhaust emissions, as well as noise levels when stationary.

Parking space sensors


System which measures the parking space available between two vehicles or obstacles.
It measures the size of the space and gives you
information on:


- the possibility of fitting into a free space,
depending on the dimensions of your
vehicle and the distances needed for manoeuvring,

- the level of difficulty of the manoeuvre to
be performed.
The s
ystem does not measure spaces which
are clearl
y much smaller or larger than the sizeof the vehicle.
Displays in the instrument panel You have identified a parking space:)
Press button A
to select the function.)
Operate the direction indicator on the side where the space is to be measured;
a message is displayed to confirm thatmeasurement is in progress.) During measurement, go forward the
length of the space, at a speed less than
12 mph (approx. 20 km/h), to prepare for your manoeuvre.) Once the measurement has beencompleted, the system informs you of
the level of difficulty of the manoeuvre
by a message in the multifunction screen
accompanied by an audible signal.


Operation

The parking space sensor function
warning lamp can have two differentstates:
-
on fixed:the function is selected by a
press on control A . -
off:
the function is not selected,

The function displays the following types of message: The function deselects itself automatically:


- when you engage reverse gear,

- when you switch off the ignition,

- if measuring is not requested,

- within five minutes of selection of the function,

- if the vehicle speed exceeds the
threshold of 45 mph
(approx. 70 km/h) for one minute.

If the lateral distance between
your vehicle and
the parking space is too large, the system maynot be able to measure the space.
The s
ystem remains available after each measurement and can therefore measure several spaces in succession.
In poor or wintry weather, ensure that the sensors are free of dir t, ice or snow.
The parking space sensor system deactivates
the front parking sensors when measuring
forwards.
Parking possible
Parking difficult
Parking not advised
If there is a fault, have the system checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.

Driving





Parking sensors

This system indicates the proximity of an
obstacle (person, vehicle, tree, gate, etc.) which comes within the field of detection of sensorslocated in the bumper.
Cer tain types of obstacle (stake, roadworkscone, etc.) detected initially will no longer bedetected at the end of the manoeuvre due to
the presence of blind spots.


This function cannot, in any
circumstances, take the place of the vigilance and responsibility of the driver.The s
ystem is switched on by engaging reversegear. This is accompanied by an audible signal.
The system is switched off when you exit reverse gear.
Rear parking sensors
Audible assistance
The proximity information is given by anintermittent audible signal, the frequency of whichincreases as the vehicle approaches the obstacle.
The sound emitted by the speaker (right or left)indicates the side on which the obstacle is located. When the distance between the vehicle andthe obstacle becomes less than approximately
thirty centimetres, the audible signal becomescontinuous.



Visual assistance

This supplements the audible signal by
displaying bars in the multifunction screen
which move progressively nearer to the vehicle.
When the obstacle is near, the "Danger" symbol is also displayed in the screen.
