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.
This view is only available via the view selection
menu.
Park Assist
Refer to the General recommendations on the use
of driving and manoeuvring aids.
This system provides active parking assistance
for vehicles fitted with a manual gearbox: it
detects a parking space and then steers in
the appropriate direction to park in this space
while the driver controls the driving direction,
engagement of gears, acceleration and braking.
To assist the driver in monitoring the correct
manoeuvring operation, the system automatically
triggers the display of Reversing camera and the
activation of the parking sensors.
The system performs the measurements of
available parking spaces and calculations of
distances to obstacles using ultrasonic sensors
built into the front and rear bumpers of the
vehicle.


The system assists with the following
manoeuvres:

122
Driving06
For ''parallel'' parking, the space must at
a minimum be equal to the length of your
vehicle plus 0.60 m.
For ''bay'' parking, the width of the space must
be equal to the width of your vehicle plus 0.70
m.
If the parking sensors function has been
deactivated in the Driving/Vehicle menu
of the touch screen, it will be automatically
reactivated when the system is activated.


When the system finds an available space, "OK" is
displayed on the parking view, accompanied by an
audible signal.
Preparing for the manoeuvre
►  Move very slowly until the request to stop
the vehicle is displayed: "Stop the vehicle“,
accompanied by the “STOP” sign and an audible
signal. Once the vehicle has stopped, an instructions
page is displayed on the screen.

To prepare for the manoeuvre, follow the
instructions.
The start of the manoeuvre is indicated by the
"Manoeuvre under way" onscreen message and
an accompanying audible signal.
Reversing is indicated by this message: “Release
the steering wheel, reverse”.
The Reversing camera and the parking sensors
are automatically activated to help you monitor
the area immediately surrounding your vehicle
during the manoeuvre.
During the manoeuvre
The system controls the vehicle’s steering. It
gives instructions on the manoeuvring direction
when starting "parallel" entry and exit parking
manoeuvres, and for all "bay" entry manoeuvres.
There instructions are displayed as a symbol
accompanied by a message:
"Reverse".
“Go forwards".
The manoeuvring status is indicated by these
symbols:
Manoeuvre in progress (green).

resume control of the vehicle).
The maximum speeds during manoeuvres are
indicated by these symbols:
75 mph or 7 km/h, for parking space entry.
53 mph or 5 km/h, for parking space exit.
During manoeuvring phases, the steering
wheel performs rapid turns: do not hold
the steering wheel or put your hands between
the spokes of the steering wheel. Watch out
for any objects that could interfere with the
manoeuvre (loose clothing, scarf, tie, etc.).
Risk of injury!
It is the driver's responsibility to constantly
monitor the traffic, especially vehicles coming
towards you.
The driver should check that no objects or
people are obstructing the vehicle’s path.
The images from the camera(s) displayed
on the touch screen may be distorted by
