PARKING DISTANCE CONTROL (6/6)

System servicing/repairs

- In the event of an impact, the alignment of the sensors may be altered 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, etc.) must be carried out by a qualified profes-

sional.

Only an authorised dealer is qualified to service the system.

System disturbance

Some conditions can disrupt or damage the operation of the system, for example:

- poor weather conditions (rain, snow, hail, black ice, etc.);

- in the event of exposure to strong electromagnetic waves (under high-voltage lines, etc.);

- some types of noise (motorcycle, lorry, pneumatic drill etc.);

- fitting an unsuitable towing ball or hook.

Risk of false alarms or absence of warnings

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

Limitation of the system operation

- The area around the sensors must be kept clean and free of any modifications in order to ensure the proper operation of the

system.

- Small objects moving close to the vehicle (motorcycles, bicycles, pedestrians, etc.) may not be recognised by the system.

- The system may not detect objects that are too close to the vehicle.

- The system may not provide a warning when the other vehicles or objects are travelling at a significantly different speed.

- During a change in trajectory, during a manoeuvre, the system may report obstacles with a delay.

- When the vehicle is towing a trailer, the rear Park Assist system must be deactivated.

Deactivating the function

You must disable the function if:

- the area around the sensors has been damaged;

- the vehicle is equipped with a towing device that is not recognised by the system (ball, hook, adapter, etc.).

Driver’s responsibility

Never leave your vehicle with the card or key inside when there is a child, de-

pendent adult or a pet in it, even for a short while. They may pose a risk to them-

gear lever or electric windows). If any part of the body becomes trapped, reverse

the direction of the window immediately by pressing the relevant switch.
