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
.
–

180° view
.
–

Zoom view
.
AUTO mode is activated by default.
In this mode, the system chooses the best view
to display
(standard or zoom).
You can change the type of view at any time
during a manoeuvre.
The system status is not saved when the ignition
is switched off.
Principle of operation

Using the rear camera, the vehicle's close
surroundings are recorded during manoeuvres
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.
Rear view

To activate the camera located on the tailgate,
engage reverse gear and do not exceed a speed
of 6 mph (10
km/h).
The system is deactivated:
–

Automatically
, at speeds above approximately
6 mph (10
km/h),
–

Automatically
, if the tailgate is opened.
–

Upon changing out of reverse gear (the image
remains displayed for 7

seconds).
–

By pressing the white arrow in the upper-left
corner of the touch screen.

AUTO mode

This mode is activated by default.
Using sensors in the rear bumper, the automatic
view changes from the rear view (standard) to
the view from above (zoom) as an obstacle is
approached at the level of the red line (less than
30 cm) during a manoeuvre.
Standard view

The area behind the vehicle is displayed on the
screen. The blue lines
1 represent the width of your
vehicle, with the mirrors unfolded; their direction
changes according to the position of the steering
wheel.
The red line 2 represents a distance of 30 cm
from the rear bumper; the two blue lines 3 and 4
represent 1 m and 2 m, respectively.
This view is available with AUTO mode or in the
view selection menu.
Zoom view

The camera records the vehicle's surroundings
during the manoeuvre in order to create a
view from above the rear of the vehicle in its
near surroundings, allowing the vehicle to be
manoeuvred around nearby obstacles.
This view is available with AUTO mode or in the
view selection menu.
Obstacles may appear further away than
they actually are.
It is important to monitor the sides of the
vehicle during the manoeuvre, using the
mirrors.
Parking sensors also provide additional
information about the area around the vehicle.
180° view

The 180° view facilitates reversing out of a
parking space, making it possible to see the
approach of vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists.
This view is not recommended for carrying out a
complete manoeuvre.
It features 3 areas: left A, centre B and right C.

1 month
In the event of a long period of non-use of
the vehicle (beyond 4
weeks) without the
possibility of charging when restarting, the
self-discharge may make it impossible to
restart if the traction battery charge level
is a low or very low, especially at negative
ambient temperatures. ALWAYS make sure
that the traction battery has a charge between
20% and 40% if you do not plan to use your
vehicle for several weeks.
Do not connect the charging cable.
Always park the vehicle in a place with
temperatures between -10°C and 30°C
(parking in a place with extreme temperatures
can damage the traction battery).
Disconnect the cable from the (+) terminal
of the accessory battery in the engine
compartment.

or a qualified workshop.
Installation tips
► To fit the snow chains during a journey, stop
the vehicle on a flat surface at the side of the
road.
►

Apply the parking brake and position any
wheel chocks under the wheels to prevent
movement of the vehicle.
►


Fit the snow chains following the instructions
provided by the manufacturer

.
►

Move off gently and drive for a few moments,
without exceeding 31

mph (50 km/h).
►

Stop the vehicle and check that the snow
chains are correctly tightened.
It is strongly recommended that you
practise fitting the snow chains on a level
and dry surface before setting off.
Avoid driving with snow chains on roads that have been cleared of snow to avoid
damaging the vehicle's tyres and the road
surface. If the vehicle is fitted with alloy
wheels, check that no part of the chain or its
fixings is in contact with the wheel rim.
