Driving
Adjust volume
With the parking aid switched on, the active
audio/video source volume will be reduced to
the intensity of the selected setting.
Error messages
When the Parking Aid is activated or when it is
switched on, if a message reporting a Parking
aid error is displayed on the instrument panel,
there is a fault in the system.
If the fault disappears before disconnecting
the ignition, the next time that the parking aid
is engaged in reverse, no audible signal of the
existence of a fault will be issued.
If there is a fault in a sensor, the

symbol is
displayed on the Easy Connect display.
Have the fault corrected by a specialised
workshop without delay.
Towing bracket
In vehicles equipped with a towing bracket
device from the factory, when the trailer is
connected electrically, the Parking Aid will
not be activated when reverse gear is engag-
ed (manual gears) nor when the selector lev-
er is turned to position
R (automatic gears).

WARNING
●
The Rear Assist does not make it possible
to precisely calculate the distance from
obstacles (people, vehicles, etc.) and nor
can it overcome the system's own limits,
hence using it may cause serious accidents
and injuries if used negligently or without
due care. The driver should be aware of
his/her surroundings at all times to ensure
safe driving.
●
The camera lens expands and distorts
the field of vision and displays the objects
on the screen in a different, vague manner.
The perception of distances is also distor-
ted by this effect.
●
Due to the screen resolution or insuffi-
cient light conditions, some items may be
displayed in an unsatisfactory manner or
not at all. Take special care with thin posts,
fences, railings or trees that might not be
displayed on screen and could damage the
vehicle.
● The rear assist has blind spots where it is
not possible to represent people or objects
(small children, animals and certain ob-
jects cannot be detected in its field of vi-
sion). Monitor the vehicle's surrounding
area at all times.
●
Keep the camera lens clean, free of ice
and snow, and do not cover it.
●
The system is not a replacement for driv-
er awareness. Supervise the parking oper-
ation at all times, as well as the vehicle's
surrounding area. Adapt your speed and
driving style at all times to suit visibility,
weather, road and traffic conditions.
●
Do not be distracted from the traffic by
looking at the screen.
●
The images on the rear assist screen are
only two-dimensional. Due to a lack of spa-
tial depth, protruding parts or holes in the
road, for example, are more difficult to de-
tect or may not be seen at all.
●
Vehicle load modifies the representation
of the orientation lines displayed. The
width represented by the lines diminishes
with vehicle load. Pay special attention to
the vehicle's surroundings when the inside
of the vehicle of the luggage compartment
is carrying a heavy load.
●
In the following situations, the objects or
other vehicles shown in the navigation sys-
tem display appear to be further away or
