Park Sensors System On/Off Switch
The indicator light within the Park
Sensors System switch will also be on
in case of system failure. If the switch is
pushed with a system failure, the
indicator light will flash for
approximately five seconds. The light
will then stay on constantly.
Note: When the ignition is cycled to
ON, the Park Sensors System keeps
the last state when the engine was
stopped (activated or deactivated) in its
memory.
System Activation/Deactivation
The system, when engaged, is
automatically activated by engaging the
REVERSE gear. It is deactivated by
engaging another gear.
Acoustic Signal
When REVERSE is engaged and there
is an obstacle behind the vehicle, an
acoustic signal with variable frequency
will sound.
The acoustic signal increases in
frequency as the distance between the
vehicle and the obstacle decreases.
The acoustic signal becomes
continuous when the distance between
the vehicle and the obstacle is less than
11 inches (30 cm), and stops if the
distance increases.
The acoustic signal is constant if the
distance between the vehicle and the
07176S0052EM
obstacle is unchanged.
Note: If several obstacles are detected
by the sensors, only the nearest one is
considered.
Indication On Display
The driver can select the type of
warning they would like to be displayed
through the Information and
Entertainment System. To access the
function on the main menu, select in the
following order:
1. "Settings"
2. "Driver Assistance"
3. "ParkSense"
4. "Mode"
5. "Sound-Display"
Visual Indications
The system indicates the presence of
an obstacle by displaying a single red
arc in the detected area, in relation to
the distance of the object and the
position of the vehicle.
If the obstacle is detected in the rear
central area, a single red arc will be
displayed as the obstacle approaches,
first constant, then flashing, in addition
to an acoustic signal.
If the obstacle is detected in the rear left
and/or right area, a single red flashing
arc will be shown in the corresponding
area on the display and the system will
emit an acoustic signal, either at
frequent intervals or constantly.
In general, the vehicle is closer to the
obstacle when a single red flashing arc
is shown on the display and the
acoustic signal becomes continuous.
If several obstacles are detected
simultaneously in the rear area, the
display will show all of them, regardless
of the area in which they were detected.
It is not possible to exit from the display
screen while the vehicle is in REVERSE.
Fault Indication
Parking sensor faults, if any, will be
indicated when REVERSE is engaged
by a message on the instrument cluster
display. Refer to "Warning Lights And
Messages" in "Getting To Know Your
Instrument Panel" for further
information.
