ASSISTED PARKING (5/5)

This function is an additional driving aid. 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 in your location.

The driver should always be ready for sudden incidents while driving: always ensure that there are no small, narrow

moving obstacles (such as a child, animal, pushchair, bicycle, stone, post, towing equipment, etc.) in the blind spot when

manoeuvring.

System servicing/repairs

- In the event of an impact, the alignment of the sensors may be changed and their operation may consequently be affected.

Deactivate the function and consult an authorised dealer.

- Any work in the area where the sensors are located (repairs, replacements, exterior trim modifications, etc.) must be carried

out by a qualified professional.

Only an authorised dealer is qualified to service the system.

In the event of system disturbance

Certain conditions may disrupt or impair operation of the system, such as poor weather conditions (snow, hail, ice, etc.).

In the event of the system behaving abnormally, deactivate it and consult an authorised dealer.

Risk of erroneous false alarms.

Limitations of the system operation

- The system cannot detect objects located in the sensor blind spots.

- Always visually check that the parking space proposed by the system is still available and contains no obstacles.

- The system should not be used when towing a trailer or when there is a towing or load carrying system on the vehicle or on

surrounding vehicles.
