PARKING SPACE SENSOR
System which measures the parking
space available between two vehi-
cles or obstacles. It measures the
size of the space and gives you in-
formation on:
- t h e p o s s i b i l i t y o f fi t t i n g i n t o a free space, depending on the
dimensions of your vehicle and
the distances necessary for your
manoeuvring,
- t h e l e v e l o f d i f fi c u l t y o f t h e m a - noeuvre to be performed.
The system does not measure spac-
es which are clearly much smaller or
larger than the size of the vehicle. Displays on the instrument
panel
The parking space sensor function
warning lamp can have three differ-
ent statuses:
-

- o n fi x e d : the function is selected
but the conditions for measuring
are not yet met (direction indi-
cator not operating, speed too
high) or the measuring phase is
terminated.
- fl a s h i n g : the measuring is in
progress or the message is be-
ing displayed. Y o u c a n s e l e c t t h e " p a r k i n g s p a c e

system checked by a CITROËN
dealer.
Operation
Y o u h a v e i d e n t i fi e d a p a r k i n g
space:
Press button A to select the function.
Activate the direction indicator
on the side where the space is to
be measured.
During the measuring, go for-
ward the length of the space, at
a speed less than 12 mph (ap-
prox. 20 km/h), to prepare for
your manoeuvre.
The system then measures the size
of the space.
The system informs you of the
l e v e l o f d i f fi c u l t y o f t h e m a n o e u -
vre via a message on the instru-
ment panel display accompanied
by a gong.
Depending on the message is-
sued by the system, you may or
may not be able to perform the
manoeuvre. The function displays the following
types of message:
Parking YES
P a r k i n g d i f fi c u l t
Parking NO The function deselects itself auto-
matically:
- when you engage reverse gear,
- when you switch off the ignition,
- if measuring is not requested,
- w i t h i n fi v e m i n u t e s o f s e l e c t i o n o f
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 may not be able
the measure the space.
The function remains available after
each measurement and thus can
measure more than one space dur-
ing your search.
In bad weather conditions or in
winter, make sure that the sensors
are not covered by dirt, or by ice or
snow.
The parking space sensor function
deactivates the front parking assist-
ance during the space measuring
phase when you are in forward gear.
