Driving

177
This function is a manoeuvring aid which
cannot, in any circumstances, replace the
need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
The driver must remain attentive and stay
in control of their vehicle.
They must always check the vehicle’s
surroundings before undertaking a
manoeuvre.
During the entire manoeuvre, the driver
must ensure that the space remains clear.
Rear parking sensors
The system is switched on by engaging reverse
g e a r.
This is confirmed by an audible signal.
The system is switched off when you come out
of reverse gear.
Audible assistance
The proximity information is given by an
intermittent audible signal, the frequency of which
increases as the vehicle approaches the obstacle.
When the distance between the vehicle and
the obstacle becomes less than about thirty
centimetres, the sound signal becomes
continuous.
The sound emitted by the speaker (right or
left) indicates the side on which the obstacle is
located.
Adjusting the audible signalIn versions equipped with
PEUGEOT Connect Radio,
pressing this button opens the
audible signal volume adjustment
window. (white: more distant obstacles, orange: close
obstacles, red: very close obstacles).
When the obstacle is very close, the "Danger"
symbol is displayed on the screen.
Front parking sensors
In addition to the rear parking sensors, the
front parking sensors are triggered when an
obstacle is detected in front and the speed of
the vehicle is still below 6 mph (10 km/h).
The front parking sensors are interrupted if
the vehicle stops for more than three seconds
in for ward gear, if an obstacle is no longer
detected or when the speed of the vehicle
exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h).
The sound emitted by the speaker (front or
rear) locates the obstacle in relation to the
vehicle – in the vehicle trajectory, in front
or behind.
Side parking sensors
Visual assistance
The function signals the presence of obstacles
both within the sensor detection zone and in
the vehicle path defined by the orientation of
the steering wheel. It supplements the audible assistance, without
taking account of the vehicle's trajectory, by
displaying bars on the screen that represent the
distance between the obstacle and the vehicle
6
Driving

178
Using four additional sensors located on the
sides of the front and rear bumpers, the system
records the position of fixed obstacles during
the manoeuvre and signals them when they are
located by the sides of the vehicle.Only fixed obstacles are signalled
correctly. Moving obstacles detected
at the beginning of the manoeuvre may
be signalled mistakenly, while moving
obstacles which appear at the sides of
the vehicle and which were not previously
recorded will not be signalled.
Deactivation/Activation
The function is deactivated and
activated in the Driving /Vehicle
menu of the touch screen.
The state of the function stays in the memory
when the ignition is switched off. The rear parking sensors system will
be deactivated automatically if a trailer
or bicycle carrier is connected to a
towing device installed in line with the
manufacturer's recommendations.
In this case, the outline of a trailer is
displayed at the rear of the image of the
vehicle.
The parking sensors are deactivated during the
space measurement phase of the Park Assist
and Full Park Assist functions.
For more information on the Park Assist or the
Full Park Assist , refer to the corresponding
section.
Operating limits
- Certain obstacles located in the sensors’ blind spots may not be detected or no
longer be detected during the manoeuvre.
-

S
ounds such as those emitted by noisy
vehicles and machinery (e.g. lorries,
pneumatic drills, etc.) may inter fere with the
vehicle's sensors.
-

C
ertain materials (fabrics) absorb sound
waves: pedestrians may not be detected.
-

A
ccumulated snow or dead leaves on the
road sur face can inter fere with the vehicle's
sensors.
Maintenance
recommendations
In bad or wintry weather, ensure that the
sensors are not covered with mud, ice or
snow. When reverse gear is engaged, an
audible signal (long beep) indicates that
the sensors may be dirty.
High pressure jet wash
When washing your vehicle, keep the lance
at least 12 inches (30 cm) away from the
sensors.
-

A f
ront or rear impact to the vehicle can
distort the settings of the sensors, which is
not always detected by the system: distance
measurements may be incorrect.
-

T
he tilting of the vehicle if the boot is
very loaded can affect the distance
measurements.
-

T
he sensors may be affected by poor
weather conditions (heavy rain, thick fog,
snowfall, etc.).

Visiopark 1 – Visiopark 2
Different contextual views can be displayed in
the left-hand part:
-
s
tandard view,
-

1
80° view,
-

z
oom view.
With the engine running, these systems allow
views of your vehicle’s close surroundings to
be displayed on the touch screen using one
camera for Visiopark 1 and two cameras for
Visiopark 2. The screen is divided into two parts: on the
left, a contextual view; on the right, a view from
above the vehicle in its close surroundings.
The parking sensors supplement the
information on the view from above the vehicle.
AUTO mode is activated by default.
In this mode, the system chooses the best view
to display (standard or zoom) according to the
information from the parking sensors.
You can change the type of view at any time
during a manoeuvre.

The display is immediately updated with the
type of view selected.
The state of the system is not memorised when
the ignition is switched off.
Principle of operation
With Visiopark 2, the image is created using
both cameras, when going for ward and when
reversing.
When the function is activated, it is possible
that the view from above is not displayed.
If
the function is activated after the vehicle has
already been driven, the view from above may
be completely displayed. Using one or both cameras, the vehicle's close
surroundings are recorded during manoeuvres
at low speed.
An image from above your vehicle in its close
surroundings is created in real time, as the
vehicle manoeuvre progresses.
This representation facilitates the alignment of
your vehicle when parking and allows obstacles
close to the vehicle to be seen.
This image is automatically deleted if the
vehicle remains stationary for too long.
