Park Assist
This system provides active assistance with parking.  It  detects  a  parking  space  then Â
o
perates  the  steering  to  park  in  the  space.
It
 operates  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 Â
w
heel  turns  quickly:  do  not  hold  the Â
s
teering  wheel,  do  not  place  your  hands Â
b
etween  the  spokes  of  the  steering Â
w
heel  and  take  care  with  loose  and Â
b
ulky  clothing,  scarves,  handbags... Â
T
here  is  a  risk  of  injury.
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:

Under-inflation detection
The system monitors the pressures in the four t
yres,  once  the  vehicle  is  moving.
It
 compares  the  information  given  by  the  four Â
w
heel  speed  sensors  with  reference values,
which must be reinitialised ever y time the
tyre pressures are adjusted or a wheel
changed .
The
 system  triggers  an  alert  as  soon  as  it Â
d
etects  a  drop  in  the  inflation  pressure  of  one Â
o
r  more  tyres. The
 under-inflation  detection  system Â
d
oes  not  replace  the  need  for  vigilance Â
o
n  the  part  of  the  driver.
This
 system  does  not  avoid  the  need  to Â
c
heck  the  tyre  pressures  (including  the Â
s
pare  wheel)  every  month  as  well  as Â
b
efore  a  long  journey.
Driving
 with  under-inflated  tyres  impairs Â
r
oad  holding,  extends  braking  distances Â
a
nd  causes  premature  tyre  wear, Â
p
articularly  under  arduous  conditions Â
(
high  loading,  high  speed,  long  journey).
System
 which  automatically  checks  the  pressures  of  the  tyres  while  driving.
The  inflation  pressures  defined  for Â
y
our  vehicle  can  be  found  on  the  tyre Â
p
ressure  label.
For
 more  information  on  the Â
I
dentification markings, refer to the
corresponding
 s
ection.
Tyre
 pressures  should  be  checked Â
w
hen  the  tyres  are  "cold"  (vehicle Â
s
topped  for  1  hour  or  after  a  journey  of Â
l
ess  than  6  miles  (10  km)  at  moderate Â
s
peeds).
Other wise
 (when  hot),  add  0.3  bar  to Â
t
he  pressures  shown  on  the  label.
Driving
 with  under-inflated  tyres Â
i
ncreases  fuel  consumption.
