tion, in bad weather or in winter,
ensure that the sensors are
not covered with mud, frost or
snow.
This system consists of proximity sensors: - four in the front bumper,
and
- four in the rear bumper. Detection zone
The system is deactivated if
the vehicle is stationary for
more than 3 seconds.
Detection
The system is activated when:
- reverse gear is engaged,
- the speed is below 6 mph (10 km/h)
in forward gear.
It is accompanied by an audible signal
and/or displaying of the vehicle on the
multifunction display.
It detects any obstacle (person, vehi-
cle, tree, gate, etc.) in front of or be-
hind the vehicle. However, it cannot
detect obstacles located directly under
the bumper.
An object, such as a stake, cone or any
other similar object may be detected
at the beginning of the manoeuvre but
may no longer be detected when the
vehicle comes close to it.
