- if the sensors are dirty (mud, snow, ...),
- if the markings on the ground are worn,
- if there is little contrast between the markings on the ground and
the road surface.
Detection
You are warned by the vibration of the
driver’s seat cushion:
- on the right-hand side, if the marking
on the ground has been crossed on
the right,
- on the left-hand side, if the marking on the ground has been crossed on
the left.
No warning is transmitted while the
direction indicator is active and for ap-
p r o x i m a t e l y 2 0 s e c o n d s a f t e r t h e d i -
rection indicator is switched off.
A warning may be transmitted if a direc-

Deactivation Operating fault
The system will be deactivated au-
tomatically when a trailer is being

verse gear is engaged, an audible
signal (long beep) indicates that
the sensors may be dirty. If an operating fault occurs, this
warning light is displayed on
the instrument panel and/or a
message appears on the multi-
function display, accompanied by an au-
dible signal (short beep), when reverse
gear is engaged.
