Park Assist
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids .
This system provides active parking assistance:
it detects a parking space and then steers in the
appropriate direction to park in the space while
the driver controls the driving direction, gear
changes, acceleration and braking.
To help the driver monitor the manoeuvre,
the system automatically triggers the display
of Visiopark 1 and activates the parking sensors.
The system measures the available parking
spaces and calculates the distances to obstacles
using ultrasonic sensors built into the front and
rear bumpers of the vehicle.
The system assists with the following
manoeuvres:
A. Entering a "parallel" parking space
B. Leaving a "parallel" parking space
C. Entering a "bay" parking space
Operation
► When approaching a parking area, reduce
the speed of your vehicle to 19 mph (30 km/h)
or less.
Activating the function
The function is activated in the Vehicle /
Driving touch screen menu.
Select " Park Assist ".
Activating the function deactivates the
Blind Spot Monitoring System.
You can deactivate the function at any
time until the parking space entry or exit
manoeuvre begins, by pressing the arrow
located in the top left-hand corner of the
display page.
Selecting the type of manoeuvre
A manoeuvre selection page is displayed on the
touch screen: by default, the "Entry" page if the
vehicle has been running since the ignition was
switched on, otherwise, the "Exit" page.
► Select the type and side of the manoeuvre to
activate the parking space search.
The selected manoeuvre can be changed at
any time, even while searching for an available
space.
This indicator lamp comes on to confirm
the selection.
Parking space search
► You should drive at a distance of between
0.50 m and 1.50 m from the row of parked
vehicles, without ever exceeding 19 mph
(30 km/h), until the system finds an available
space.
The parking space search stops over this limit.
The function automatically deactivates once the
vehicle speed exceeds 31 mph (50 km/h).
For ''parallel'' parking, the space must at
a minimum be equal to the length of your
vehicle plus 0.60 m.
For ''bay'' parking, the width of the space
must be equal to the width of your vehicle
plus 0.70 m.
If the parking sensors function has been
deactivated in the Driving / Vehicle menu
of the touch screen, it will be automatically
reactivated when the system is activated.
When the system finds an available space, " OK "
is displayed on the parking view, accompanied
by an audible signal.
Preparing for the manoeuvre
► Move very slowly until the request to stop
the vehicle is displayed: " Stop the vehicle “,
accompanied by the “ STOP ” sign and an audible
signal.
Once the vehicle has stopped, an instructions
page is displayed on the screen.
► To prepare for the manoeuvre, follow the
instructions.
The start of the manoeuvre is indicated by
the message " Manoeuvre under way ",
accompanied by an audible signal.
Reversing is indicated by this message:
“ Release the steering wheel, reverse ”.
Visiopark 1 and the parking sensors are
automatically activated to help you monitor
