Note:
Information about parking assistance can also be found in the
user manual issued for your vehicle, in section "OPS" or "Optical
parking system".
Parking assistance gives you assurance when manoeuvring,
particularly when parking. It indicates the distance and the position of
obstacles in front of and behind the vehicle.
Parking assistance is activated when you drive very slowly or when you
insert the reverse gear.
The space in front of and behind the vehicle is divided into several
zones. Each zone is monitored by a sensor.
When you approach an obstacle, the distance to each of the sensors is
indicated visually by yellow bars. As soon as you get very close to the
obstacle, the bars turn red.
At the same time an audible warning is given as soon as the first
coloured bar appears. The audible warning comprises a sequence of
high-pitch tones. The closer the obstacle, the faster the sequence of
tones. When the first red bar appears, you will hear a continuous tone.

Caution!
It is possible that the distance from very narrow, pointed or
very low obstacles will not be correctly indicated. Similarly it is possible
that high obstacles such as branches will not be detected. Use of the
parking assistance does not release the driver from his duty to exercise
all due care.
Note:
The optical and acoustic parking assistance is interrupted when a
mobile phone is connected to the navigation device and a call is
received.
