Rear parking sensors System comprising four proximity sensors, located in the rear bumper.
This detects obstacles
(person, vehicle, tree, gate, etc.) behind the vehicle. However, itcannot detect obstacles located just below thebumper.
Activation
The system is activated as soon as reverse gear is engaged, accompanied by an audiblesignal. The proximity information is given by:


- an audible signal, which becomes more
rapid as the vehicle approaches the
obstacle,

- a
graphic in the multifunction screen, with
blocks which become increasingly closer to
the vehicle (depending on version).

Detection zone

When the distance between the rear of the vehicleand the obstacle is less than thirty centimetres, the
audible signal becomes continuous and the "Danger" symbol appears in the multifunction screen.
On completion of the manoeuvre, when you exit
reverse gear, the system becomes inactive.
An object, such as a stake, a roadworkscone 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 parking sensors system cannot, in any circumstances, take the place of the vigilance and responsibility of thedriver.
