REVERSING CAMERA (1/2)
4 moving guide line:
This is shown in blue on the multifunc-
tion screen 2. It indicates the vehicle
trajectory according to the position of
the steering wheel.
Special feature
Make sure that the camera is not ob-
scured (by dirt, mud, snow, etc.).
Operation
When you change to reverse gear, the
camera 1 located on the tailgate pro-
vides a view of the area behind the
vehicle on the multimedia screen 2,
accompanied by one or two fixed or
moving guide lines 3 and 4.
This system is initially used with the aid
of several gauges (mobile for trajectory
and fixed for distance). When the red
zone is reached, use the bumper image
to stop accurately. Fixed gauge 3
The fixed clearance gauge comprises
coloured markers
A, B and C , indicat-
ing the distance behind the vehicle:
– A (red) approximately 30 centime-
tres from the vehicle;
– B (yellow) approximately 70 centi-
metres from the vehicle;
– C (green) approximately 150 centi-
metres from the vehicle.
This gauge remains fixed and indicates
the vehicle trajectory if the wheels are
in line with the vehicle.

This function is an additional
aid. It cannot, therefore,
under any circumstances
replace the vigilance or the
responsibility of the driver.
The driver should always look out
for sudden hazards during driving:
always ensure that there are no
moving obstacles (such as a child,
animal, pram, bicycle, etc.) or small,
narrow objects such as stones or
posts in your path when manoeu-
vring.
The screen shows a reverse mirror
image.
The frames are a representation
projected onto flat ground; this in-
formation must not be taken into
account when superimposed on a
vertical object or an object on the
ground.
Objects which appear on the edge
of the screen may be deformed.
In very bright light (snow, vehicle in
sunshine etc.), the camera vision
may be adversely affected.
If the boot is open or poorly closed,
the message “Boot open” appears
and the camera display disappears.
You can also adjust the camera image
settings (brightness, contrast, etc.)
Activating, deactivating the
reversing camera
From the multifunction screen 2, select
“Vehicle”, “Settings”, “Parking as-
sistance”, then “Rear view camera”.
Activate or deactivate the reversing
camera and confirm your choice.

Choice of manoeuvre
The system can perform four types of
manoeuvres:
– parallel parking;
– perpendicular parking;
– angle parking;
– moving out of a parallel parking space.
From the multifunction screen, select
the manoeuvre to be performed.
Note: When starting the vehicle, or
after successfully completed parallel
parking using the system, the default
manoeuvre proposed by the system is
assistance in exiting a parallel parking
space. In other cases, the default ma-
noeuvre can be set from the multifunc-
tion screen.
ASSISTED PARKING (2/4)
Operation
Parking
As long as the vehicle speed is less
than 20 mph (30 km/h), the system
looks for available parking spaces on
both sides of the vehicle.
Once a space has been found, it is dis-
played on the multifunction screen, indi-
cated by a small letter “P”. Drive slowly,
with the indicators activated on the side
of the space, until the message “Stop”
is displayed, alongside a beep.
The space is then indicated on the mul-
tifunction screen by a capital “P”.
– Stop the vehicle;
– select reverse gear.
Warning light
lights up on the in-
strument panel, along with a beep.
– release the steering wheel;
– follow the system instructions pro- vided on the multifunction screen. Your speed should not exceed around 4
mph (7 km/h).
Once the warning light
on the
instrument panel goes off and a beep
sounds, the manoeuvre has been com-
pleted.

2.72
ASSISTED PARKING (4/4)
This function is an additional driving aid. However, this function is not under any circumstances intended to replace the
due care and attention of the driver, who should at all times be in control of the vehicle.
Make sure that the manoeuvre complies with the applicable traffic regulations at your location.
– The driver should always look out for sudden hazards during driving: alw\
ays ensure that there are no moving obstacles (such as a child, animal, pram, bicycle, etc.) or small, narrow object\
s such as stones or posts in your path when manoeu-
vring.
– The system cannot detect objects located in the sensor blind spots.
– During manoeuvring, the steering wheel may turn quickly: do not place yo\
ur hands inside the wheel, and ensure nothing is located in this space.
– Always visually check that the parking space proposed by the system is s\
till available and contains no obstacles.
– The system should be deactivated when towing a trailer.

ADAPTIVE SUSPENSION
Adaptive suspension makes it possible
to modify the suspension automatically,
according to driving conditions and to
your driving style.
Choosing a preset mode
From the menu on the multifunction
screen 1, you can select a preset driv-
ing mode.
The configuration of the suspension will
depend on the mode selected in the
“Multi-Sense” menu (please refer to the
information on “Multi-Sense” in
Section 3). Operating fault
In the event of a fault, the system
switches automatically to the “Neutral”
mode in “Multi-Sense”.

AUTOMATIC GEARBOX (3/6)
Driving in automatic mode
With the vehicle at a standstill, engine
running, position P, N or R, depress the
brake pedal and move the selector to
the left then back, and release.
If one of the conditions is not applied,
D flashes for around 5 seconds and
the message “Push brake pedal” is dis-
played on the instrument panel for ap-
proximately 15 seconds.
In most road conditions you will en-
counter, you will not need to touch your
lever again: the gears will change au-
tomatically at the right time and at the
most suitable engine speed because
the automatic system takes into ac-
count the vehicle load and road contour
and adjusts itself to the particular driv-
ing style you have chosen.
Note: With the engine running and
the vehicle travelling between 0 and
6 mph (0 and 10 km/h), position N or
R , it is not necessary to depress the
brake pedal to engage position D. This
is useful during parking manoeuvres
requiring a number of alternate forward
and reverse movements. Economical driving
When driving, always leave the lever
in position
D, keeping the accelerator
pedal lightly depressed to ensure auto-
matic gear changes at a lower engine
speed.
Accelerating and overtaking
Depress the accelerator pedal briskly
and fully (so that it goes beyond the
point of resistance).
It is also possible to change down at
any time for overtaking purposes, by
pushing the selector to position “ -”.
To select reverse gear
With the vehicle at a standstill, engine
running, position P, N or D, depress the
brake pedal and move the selector to
the left then forwards, and release.
If the brake pedal is not depressed, a
beep will sound, the display of position
R flashes for around 5 seconds in the
grid shown on the instrument panel,
and a message “Push brake pedal” is
displayed for around 15 seconds.
Note: With the engine running, and
the vehicle travelling between 0 and
6 mph (0 and 10 km/h), position N or
D , it is not necessary to depress the
brake pedal to engage R. This is useful
during parking manoeuvres requiring
a number of alternate forward and re-
verse movements.

AUTOMATIC GEARBOX (4/6)
Driving in manual mode
Driving in temporary manual mode
Temporary manual mode can only be
selected when automatic mode D has
been engaged and the vehicle speed
is over around 6 mph (10 km/h).
Once D engaged, move the selector 3:
– to the rear +, to request a higher gear;
– forwards -, to request a lower gear.
The gear selected is displayed to the
right of D on the instrument panel.
Special cases
Under certain driving conditions (e.g.
engine protection, electronic stability
program (ESP) operational etc.: ESC)
etc.) the system can change the gear
automatically.
The requested gear will be maintained
for a period set by the system, based
on the gradient and the driving style. The system will take over once this
period has elapsed
and may then trig-
ger an automatic gear change.
Likewise, to prevent incorrect manoeu-
vres, a gear change may be refused
by the system: in this case the gear dis-
play + or - flashes for a few seconds as
a warning, along with a beep.
Driving in permanent manual mode
Permanent manual mode can only be
selected when automatic mode D has
previously been engaged and the vehi-
cle speed is greater than around 6 mph
(10 km/h).
Once D engaged, move and hold the
selector 3 for around 1 second:
– to the rear + , to request a higher
gear;
– forwards - to request a lower gear. The gear engaged is first displayed to
the right of D on the instrument panel,
then
M followed by the gear engaged
appear under + once permanent
manual mode is activated.
To exit permanent manual mode and
return to automatic mode, move the se-
lector to D.
Any other request for an available gear,
P or R or N will exit permanent manual
mode.
