Front parking sensors
The sound emitted by the speaker (front or  rear)  indicates  whether  the  obstacle Â
i
s  in  front  or  behind. The
 system  will  be  deactivated Â
a
utomatically  if  a  trailer  is  being Â
t

a
 towbar  (vehicle  fitted  with  a  towbar Â
i
nstalled  in  line  with  the  manufacturer's Â
r
ecommendations).In
 bad  weather  or  in  winter,  ensure Â
t
hat  the  sensors  are  not  covered  with  m
ud,  ice  or  snow.  When  reverse  gear  is  e
ngaged,  an  audible  signal  (long  beep) Â
i
ndicates  that  the  sensors  may  be  dirty.
Certain
 sound  sources  (motorcycle, Â
l
orry,  pneumatic  drill,  etc.)  may  trigger Â
t
he  audible  signals  of  the  parking Â
s
ensor  system.
In
Â

f
ront

Park Assist
This system provides active assistance with parking,  detecting  a  parking  space  then Â
c
ontrolling  the  steering  to  park  in  the  space.
It
 controls  the  steering  while  the  driver Â
m
anages  the  accelerator,  brakes,  gears  and Â
c
lutch  (manual  gearbox).  During  phases  of Â
e
ntry  into  and  exit  from  a  parking  space,  the Â
s
ystem  provides  visual  and  audible  information Â
t
o  the  driver  in  order  to  make  the  manoeuvres Â
s
afe.  It  may  be  necessary  to  move  for wards Â
a
nd  backwards  more  than  once. During
 a  manoeuvre  the  steering  wheel Â
t
urns  quickly:  do  not  hold  the  steering Â
w
heel,  do  not  place  your  hand  between Â
t
he  spokes  of  the  steering  wheel  and Â
t
ake  care  with  loose  and  bulky  clothing, Â
s
carves,  handbags...  There  is  a  risk  of Â
in
jury.
When
 Park  Assist  is  activated,  it Â
p
revents  a  change  to  STOP  mode  of Â
S
top  &  Start.  In  STOP  mode,  activation Â
o
f  Park  Assist  restarts  the  engine.
The
 Park  Assist  system  cannot  in  any Â
c
ircumstances  replace  the  need  for Â
v
igilance  on  the  part  of  the  driver.
The
 driver  must  remain  in  control Â
o
f  their  vehicle  ensuring  that  the Â
s
pace  remains  clear  throughout  the Â
m
anoeuvre.
In
 some  circumstances,  the  sensors Â
m
ay  not  detect  small  obstacles  located Â
i
n  their  blind  spots.
The
 driver  can  take  control  at  any  time  by Â
g
ripping  the  steering  wheel. The
 Park  Assist  system  provides  assistance  for  t
he  following  manoeuvres:
-
Â
e
ntry  into  a  parallel  parking  space
-
Â
e
xit  from  a  parallel  parking  space
-
Â
b
ay  parkingThe
 Park  Assist  system  takes  control Â
o
f  the  power  steering  for  a  maximum Â
o
f  4  manoeuvre  cycles.  The  function Â
i
s  deactivated  after  these  4  cycles. Â
I
f  you  think  that  your  vehicle  is  not Â
p
ositioned  correctly,  you  should  then Â
t

t
