REAR PARKING ASSISTANCE This system consists of four proximi- ty sensors, located in the rear bum-
per, and a special speaker fittedunder the rear parcel shelf. It detects any obstacle (person, vehicle, tree, gate, etc.) behind the
vehicle. However, it cannot detectobstacles located directly under the
bumper. An object, such as a stake, cone or any other similar object may bedetected at the beginning of themanoeuvre but may no longer bedetected when the vehicle comesclose to it. Note:
this function will be disarmed

bad weather or in winter, ensure thatthe sensors are not covered with
mud, frost or snow. Activation The system is activated as soon as reverse gear is engaged; an audiblebleep shows that it is active. An audible signal indicates the prox-
imity of the obstacle. This signalbecomes more rapid as the vehicleapproaches the obstacle. When the distance between the rear of the vehicle and the obstacle isless than approximately twenty-fivecentimetres, the audible signalbecomes continuous.Deactivation
