the available parking spaces and calculates
the distances to obstacles using 12 ultrasonic
sensors built into the front and rear bumpers of
the vehicle.
To help the driver monitor the successful
completion of themanoeuvre, the system
automatically displays the Reversing camera or
360 Vision and activates the parking sensors.
To initiate parking assistance when approaching
a parking area:
► Reduce the speed of the vehicle to a maximum
of 19mph (30km/h).
► Press the button on the gear selector or, on
the touch screen, select Driving/ Vehicle >DS
PARK PILOT.
Activating the system deactivates Blind
Spot Detection.
Sequence
Once the system is activated, the following steps
will be performed successively:
– Select the type of manoeuvre via the touch
screen.
– Search for an available space.
– Prepare for the manoeuvre.
– Perform the manoeuvre.
– Finalise the manoeuvre.
It is possible to deactivate the system at
any time until the start of the manoeuvre,
by pressing the red arrow in the upper left
corner of the screen.
DS PARK PILOT is not always able to react
automatically and appropriately due to
the performance limits inherent to the system.
The manoeuvre remains the responsibility
of the driver, who must not leave the driving
position and must never try to lock the system
control button.
The driver's seat belt must remain fastened
during the manoeuvre.
Choice of the type of
manoeuvre and search for
space
Depending on whether the vehicle has been
driven or not since the ignition was switched on,
the function proposes the entry to or exit from a
parking space on the touch screen.
► Select the type and side of the manoeuvre to
activate the parking space search.
Illumination of this lamp confirms
activation.
It is possible to change the type of manoeuvre
at any time, including during the available space
search phase.
► Drive at a distance of 0.50 to 1.50m from the
row of parked vehicles, not exceeding 19mph
(30km/h), until the system finds an available
space (indicated by OK on the display and an
audible signal).
For "parallel" parking, the space must at
least equal to the length of your vehicle
plus 1m.
For "bay" parking, the space must at least
equal to the width of your vehicle plus 0.70m.
Preparing for the manoeuvre
► Move very slowly until the request to stop
the vehicle and the "STOP" sign are displayed,
accompanied by an audible signal.
