Park Assist
Refer to the General recommendations
on the use of driving and
manoeuvring aids.
This system provides active parking assistance:
it detects a parking space then operates the
steering system to park in this space.
With a manual gearbox, the driver manages the
accelerator, brakes, gears and clutch.
With an automatic gearbox (EAT6/EAT8), the
driver manages the accelerator, brakes and
gears.
During phases of entry into and exit from a
parking space, the system provides visual and
audible information to the driver in order to make
the manoeuvres safe. Several forward and
reverse manoeuvres may be required.
At any time, the driver can take back control by
holding the steering wheel.
The camera records the vehicle's surroundings
during the manoeuvre in order to create a
view from above the front of the vehicle in its
near surroundings, allowing the vehicle to be
manoeuvred around obstacles nearby.
This view is available with AUTO mode or in the
view selection menu.
The 180° view assists with exiting from a parking
space in forward gear, making it possible to
see the approach of vehicles, pedestrians and
cyclists.
This view is not recommended for carrying out a
complete manoeuvre.
It consists of 3 areas: left A, centre B and right
C.
This view is available only from the view
selection menu.
Obstacles may appear further away than
they actually are.
It is important to check the sides of the
vehicle during the manoeuvre, using the
mirrors.
The parking sensors also supplement the
information on the vehicle's surroundings.
The Park Assist system provides assistance for
the following manoeuvres:
A. Entry into a "parallel" parking space

Driving
Always check the surroundings of the
vehicle before starting a manoeuvre.
If the lateral distance between the vehicle and
the space is too great, the system may not be
able to measure the space.

C. Entry into a "bay" parking space

measurement. It intervenes later when
manoeuvring to warn that the vehicle is
approaching an obstacle: the audible signal
becomes continuous when the obstacle is
less than 30 centimetres away.
If the Parking sensors function has
been deactivated, it will be automatically
reactivated during the assisted manoeuvring
phases.
The Park Assist system cannot operate
with the engine switched off.
When Park Assist is activated, it prevents
Stop & Start from going into STOP mode. In
STOP mode, activation of Park Assist restarts
the engine.
During manoeuvring phases, the steering
wheel performs rapid turns: do not hold
the steering wheel or put your hands between
the spokes of the steering wheel.
Beware of any object likely to block the
manoeuvre (e.g. loose clothing, scarves, ties)
- risk of injury!
The Park Assist system takes control of
the steering for a maximum of 4
manoeuvring cycles. It is deactivated after
these 4 cycles. If the vehicle is not positioned
correctly, take back control to complete the
manoeuvre.
During parking and exit from parking
manoeuvres, the Visiopark 1 - Visiopark
2 functions may come into operation. They
allow better monitoring of the surroundings of
the vehicle, by displaying additional
information in the touch screen.
For more information on the Visiopark
1 - Visiopark 2 functions, refer to the
corresponding section.

In some circumstances, the sensors may
not detect small obstacles located in their
blind spots.
Any object exceeding the size of the vehicle
(e.g. roof ladder, towball) is not taken
into account by the Park Assist during a
manoeuvre.
