Parking Distance Control; The System - Renault Modus Handbook

PARKING DISTANCE CONTROL

Operating principle
Ultrasonic sensors, fitted in the vehi-
cle's rear bumper, measure the dis-
tance between the vehicle and an ob-
stacle when reversing.
This measurement is indicated by
beeps which become more frequent the
closer you come to the obstacle, until
they become a continuous beep when
the vehicle is approximately 30 centi-
metres from the obstacle.
There is a beep when changing to re-
verse gear.
Note: make sure that the ultrasonic
sensors are not obscured (by dirt, mud,
snow, etc.).
This function is an additional aid that indicates the distance between the
vehicle and an obstacle whilst reversing, using sound signals.
Under no circumstances should it replace the driver's care or responsibil-
ity whilst reversing.
The driver should always pay attention to sudden incidents during driving: always
ensure that there are no moving obstacles (such as a child, animal, pram or bi-
cycle, etc.) or small, narrow objects such as stones or posts in your path when
manoeuvring.
