Parking sensors
Refer to the General recommendations on the use
of driving and manoeuvring aids.


Using sensors located in the bumper, this
system signals the proximity of obstacles (e.g. pedestrian, vehicle, tree, barrier) present in
their field of detection.
Rear parking sensors
The system is switched on by engaging reverse
gear, as confirmed by an audible signal.
The system is switched off when you come out of
reverse gear.
Audible assistance

The system signals the presence of obstacles
within the sensors’ detection zone.


Depending on version, in the example shown, only
the obstacles present in the shaded area will be
signalled by the audible assistance.
The proximity information is given by an
intermittent audible signal, the frequency of

118
Driving06
which increases as the vehicle approaches the
obstacle.
When the distance between the vehicle and
the obstacle becomes less than about thirty
centimetres, the audible signal becomes
continuous.
The sound emitted by the speaker (right or
left) indicates the side on which the obstacle is
located.
Adjusting the audible signalWith DS CONNECT RADIO or DS
CONNECT NAV, pressing this
button opens the window for adjusting the
volume of the audible signal.
Visual assistance

This supplements the audible signal by displaying
bars on the screen that represent the distance
between the obstacle and the vehicle (white:

When the obstacle is very close, the "Danger"
symbol is displayed on the screen.
Front parking sensors
Supplementing the rear parking sensors, the front
parking sensors are triggered when an obstacle
is detected in front and the speed of the vehicle is
still below 6 mph (10 km/h).
Front parking sensor operation is suspended if
the vehicle stops for more than three seconds in
forward gear, if an obstacle is no longer detected
or the vehicle speed exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h).
The sound emitted by the speaker (front
or rear) locates the obstacle relative to
the vehicle, in front or behind it.
