Parking aid
General notes
The rear parking aid uses an acoustic signal
to indicate the distance between your vehicle
and an obstacle. If you engage reverse gear
while the engine is running, the parking aid
is activated automatically.
The parking aid uses three sensors : in the
rear bumper to monitor the area behind your
vehicle. The sensors must be free from dirt,
ice or slush. They can otherwise not function
correctly. Clean the sensors regularly, tak-
ing care not to scratch or damage them.
