Parking sensors
This system indicates the proximity of an obstacle  (person,  vehicle,  tree,  gate,  etc.) Â
w
hich  comes  within  the  field  of  detection  of Â
s
ensors  located  in  the  bumper.
Certain
 types  of  obstacle  (stake,  roadworks Â
c
one,  etc.)  detected  initially  will  no  longer  be Â
d
etected  at  the  end  of  the  manoeuvre,  if  they Â
a
re  located  in  blind  spots  in  the  sensors'  field Â
o
f  detection.
This system cannot in any circumstances replace the  need  for  vigilance  on  the  part  of  the  driver.
Audible assistance
The proximity information is given by an intermittent  audible  signal,  the  frequency  of  which i
ncreases  as  the  vehicle  approaches  the  obstacle.
The
 sound  emitted  by  the  speaker  (right  or  left)
 i
ndicates  the  side  on  which  the  obstacle  is  located.
When
 the  distance  between  the  vehicle  and
 t
he  obstacle  becomes  less  than  approximately
 t
hirty  centimetres,  the  audible  signal  becomes
 c
ontinuous.
Rear parking sensors
Visual assistance*
This supplements the audible signal by d isplaying  bars  in  the  screen  which  move Â
