8 95 VISUAL AND AUDIBLE REAR Detection zone Detection The system is activated when: - reverse gear is engaged, - the speed is below 6 mph (10 km/h) in forward gear. It is accompanied by an audible signal and/or displaying of the vehicle on the multifunction display. The proximity of the obstacle is indi- cated by: - an audible signal which becomes more rapid as the vehicle ap- proaches the obstacle, - a graphic on the multifunction dis- play, with blocks which become in- creasingly close to the vehicle. The obstacle is located in relation to the speakers; that is, front or rear and right or left. cle and the obstacle is less than ap- proximately twenty-i ve centimetres, the audible signal becomes continu- ous and/or the "Danger" symbol ap- pears on the multifunction display. The system becomes inactive again: - when you exit reverse gear, - when the speed is above 6 mph (10 km/h), - at the end of the manoeuvre, when stationary, after a few seconds (front parking assistance only). The system is deactivated when the vehicle has been stationary for more than 3 seconds. This system consists of four proxim- ity sensors, located in the rear and/or front bumper. It detects any obstacle (person, vehi- cle, tree, gate, etc.) in front of or be- hind the vehicle. However, it cannot detect obstacles located directly under the bumper. An object, such as a stake, cone or any other similar object may be detected at the beginning of the manoeuvre but may no longer be detected when the vehicle comes close to it. In bad weather or in winter, ensure that the sensors are not covered with mud, frost or snow. |
