ParkAssist
Thissystemprovidesactiveassistancewith
parking,detectingaparkingspacethen
controllingthesteeringtoparkinthespace.
Itcontrolsthesteeringwhilethedriver
managestheaccelerator,brakes,gearsand
clutch(manualgearbox).Duringphasesof
entryintoandexitfromaparkingspace,the
systemprovidesvisualandaudibleinformation
tothedriverinordertomakethemanoeuvres
safe.Itmaybenecessarytomoveforwards
andbackwardsmorethanonce.
Duringamanoeuvrethesteeringwheel
turnsquickly:donotholdthesteering
wheel,donotplaceyourhandbetween
thespokesofthesteeringwheeland
takecarewithlooseandbulkyclothing,
scarves,handbags...Thereisariskof
injury.
WhenParkAssistisactivated,it
preventsachangetoSTOPmodeof
Stop&Start.InSTOPmode,activation
ofParkAssistrestartstheengine.
TheParkAssistsystemcannotinany
circumstancesreplacetheneedfor
vigilanceonthepartofthedriver.
Thedrivermustremainincontrol
oftheirvehicleensuringthatthe
spaceremainsclearthroughoutthe
manoeuvre.
Insomecircumstances,thesensors
maynotdetectsmallobstacleslocated
intheirblindspots.
Thedrivercantakecontrolatanytimeby
grippingthesteeringwheel.
TheParkAssistsystemprovidesassistancefor
thefollowingmanoeuvres:
- entryintoaparallelparkingspace
- exitfromaparallelparkingspace
- bayparking
TheParkAssistsystemtakescontrol
ofthepowersteeringforamaximum
of4manoeuvrecycles.Thefunction
isdeactivatedafterthese4cycles.
Ifyouthinkthatyourvehicleisnot
positionedcorrectly,youshouldthen
takecontrolofthesteeringtocarryout
themanoeuvre.
TheParkAssistsystemcannotwork
withtheengineoff.
