Driving
Visual assistance
This supplements the audible signal by
displaying bars on the screen that move
progressively nearer to the vehicle (green: more
distant; yellow: close; red: very close).
When the obstacle is very close, the "Danger"
symbol is displayed on the screen.
Front parking sensors
Supplementing the rear parking sensors, the
front parking sensors are triggered when an
obstacle is detected in front and the speed of the
vehicle is still below 6 mph (10 km/h).
Front parking sensor operation is suspended if
the vehicle stops for more than three seconds in
forward gear, if an obstacle is no longer detected
or the vehicle speed exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h).
The sound emitted by the speaker (front
or rear) locates the obstacle relative to
96
the vehicle, whether in front of or behind it on
its path.
Deactivation / Activation
It is set via the vehicle configuration menu.
The state of the system stays in the memory
when the ignition is switched off.
The rear parking sensors system will be
deactivated automatically if a trailer or
bicycle carrier is connected to a towing device
installed in accordance with the
manufacturer's recommendations.
Operating limits
If the boot is heavily loaded, the vehicle may tilt,
affecting distance measurements.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction when
shifting to reverse, this warning lamp
comes on on the instrument panel, accompanied
by the display of a message and an audible
signal (short beep).
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked.
Reversing camera
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids.
The reversing camera is activated automatically
when reverse gear is engaged.
The image is displayed on the touch screen.
The reversing camera function may be
supplemented by the parking sensors.
The blue lines 1 indicate the general direction of
the vehicle (the gap corresponds to the width of
your vehicle including the mirrors).
The red line 2 represents a distance of about
30 cm beyond the edge of your vehicle's rear
bumper.
