Parking exit warning

Using information from the radars installed on each side of the rear bumper (zone A), the system notifies the driver when another vehicle appears in the detection zone B.

The function is activated if:

the reverse gear is engaged;

and

the vehicle is stationary or driving at a low speed.

Tip

The system's detection capability depends on the vehicle's surroundings (static objects etc.) and the condition of the bumper etc.

WARNING

This function is an additional driving aid. This function is not under any circumstances intended to replace the due care and attention of the driver, who should at all times be in control of the vehicle.

Special feature

Make sure that the radar area A is not obscured (by stickers, mud, snow, etc.).

If a radar is obscured, the "Side radars no visibility" message will appear on the instrument panel. Clean the area where the sensors are located.

Activation/deactivation from the multimedia screen 1

To activate or deactivate the function, refer to the multimedia instructions.

Select "ON" or "OFF".

Operation

The function warns you if a vehicle is in area B and is approaching your vehicle.

When a vehicle is detected, the warning lights 2 light up on both door mirrors 3.

Note: clean the door mirrors regularly 3 so that the warning lights 2 can be seen.

The warning lights 4 on the multimedia screen indicate the side on which the approaching vehicle has been detected.

Note: clean the camera regularly so that it is not obscured.

Warning lights 2 and 4 are accompanied by an audible warning when reverse gear is engaged and your vehicle is moving.

Operating faults

If the vehicle is fitted with a towbar recognised by the system and a trailer has been connected, the parking exit warning is automatically deactivated and the following message is displayed on the instrument panel: "Driving assist unavailable".

If the system detects a fault, the "Check Side radars" message is displayed on the instrument panel. Consult an approved dealer.

Tip

Due to the presence of sensors behind the bumper, it is advisable to entrust any operation on the bumper (repair, replacement, paintwork, etc.) to a qualified professional.

WARNING

Limitation of the system operation

The radar area should be kept clean and free of any modifications in order to ensure the proper operation of the system.
Small objects (motorcycles, bicycles, pedestrians etc.) moving towards to the vehicle may not be recognised by the system.

Deactivating the function

You must deactivate the function if:

the radar area A has been damaged (rear bumper);
the vehicle is fitted with a towbar that is not recognised by the system.

WARNING

The system should under no circumstances be taken to be an obstacle detector or an anti-collision system.

System servicing/repairs

In the event of an impact, the position of the radars may be changed, affecting the function. Deactivate the function and consult an authorised dealer.
Any work in the area where the radars are located (repair, replacement, bodywork etc.) must be carried out by a qualified professional.

Only an authorised dealer is qualified to service the system.

WARNING

System disturbance

Some conditions can disrupt or damage the system operation, for example:

a complex environment (underground car park, metallic structures, etc.);
poor weather conditions (snow, heavy rain, hail, black ice etc.).

Deactivating the function

You must deactivate the function if the vehicle is being towed (breakdown recovery) or if the vehicle is fitted with a towbar that is not recognised by the system.

In the event of the system behaving abnormally, deactivate it and consult an authorised dealer.
