VISUAL AND AUDIBLE REAR PARKING ASSISTANCE
This system consists of four proxi mity
sensors, located in the rear bumper,
and a special speaker.
This detects any obstacle (person,
vehicle, tree, gate, etc.) behind the
vehicle. Nevertheless, it cannot de-
tect obstacles located just below the
bumper.
An object, such as a stake, a road-
works 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. Detection zone
Activation
The system is activated as soon as
reverse gear is engaged, accompa-
nied by an audible signal. The pro-
ximity information is given by:
- an audible signal, which be-
comes more rapid as the vehicle
approaches the obstacle.
- a graphic on the multifunction display, with blocks which be-
come increasingly close to the
vehicle. When the distance between the rear
of the vehicle and the obstacle is
less than thirty centimetres, the au-
dible signal becomes continuous and
the "Danger" symbol appears on the
multifunction display.
On completion of the manoeuvre,
when you exit reverse gear, the
system becomes inactive.
The rear parking assistance system
cannot, in any circumstances, take
the place of the vigilance and respon-
sibility of the driver.
