Deactivation/Activation

The tilting of the vehicle if the boot is very

loaded can affect the distance measurements.

The function is deactivated and

activated in the Driving/Vehicle

menu of the touch screen.

The state of the system stays in the memory

when the ignition is switched off.

Malfunction

If a malfunction occurs, when

shifting to reverse, one of these

warning lamps comes on in the

instrument panel, accompanied by

the display of a message and an

audible signal (short beep).

If the malfunction occurs while the

parking sensors are being used, it

causes the function to deactivate.

With the engine running, these systems allow

views of your vehicle's close surroundings to

be displayed on the touch screen using one

camera for Top Rear Vision and two cameras

for Top 360 Vision.

The rear parking sensors system will

be deactivated automatically if a trailer

or bicycle carrier is connected to

a towing device installed in line with the

manufacturer's recommendations.

In this case, the outline of a trailer is

displayed at the rear of the image of the

vehicle.

Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified

workshop to have the system checked.

Principle of operation

Top Rear Vision

The screen is divided into two parts: on the

left, a contextual view; on the right, a view from

above the vehicle in its close surroundings.

The parking sensors supplement the

Rear vision

information on the view from above the vehicle.

Different contextual views can be displayed in

the left-hand part:

standard view,

180° view,

zoom view.

Using one or two cameras, the close

surroundings of the vehicle are recorded whilst

manoeuvring at low speed.

An image from above your vehicle in its close

surroundings is reconstructed (represented

between the blue brackets) in real time and as

the manoeuvre progresses.

This representation facilitates the alignment of

your vehicle when parking and allows obstacles

close to the vehicle to be seen.

AUTO mode is activated by default.

In this mode, the system chooses the best view

to display (standard or zoom) according to the

information from the parking sensors.

You can change the type of view at any time

during a manoeuvre.

To activate the camera, located near the

number plate lamps, engage reverse and keep

the speed of the vehicle below 6 mph (10 km/h).

The system is deactivated:

automatically above about 6 mph (10 km/h),

automatically on opening the tailgate,

by pressing the white arrow in the top left-

hand corner of the touch screen.

Standard view

This mode is activated by default.

The camera records the vehicle's surroundings

during the manoeuvre in order to create

a view from above the rear 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.

Using sensors in the rear bumper, the

automatic view changes from a rear view

(standard) to a view from above (zoom), as an

obstacle is approached at the level of the red

line (less than 30 cm) during a manoeuvre.

The area behind the vehicle is displayed on the

screen.

The blue lines 1 represent the width of your

vehicle, with the mirrors unfolded; their

direction changes depending on the position of

the steering wheel.

The red line 2 represents a distance of 30 cm

from the bumper; the two blue lines 3 and

4 represent 1 m and 2 m, respectively.

This view is available with AUTO mode or in 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 rear parking sensors also supplement

the information on the vehicle's

surroundings.

Park Assist

Refer to the General recommendations on

the use of driving and manoeuvring aids.

This system provides active assistance with

parking: it detects a parking space then

operates the steering system to park in this

space.

With manual and automatic gearboxes, the

driver manages the accelerator, brakes and

forward and reverse gear engagement.

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.

The Park Assist system provides assistance for

the following manoeuvres:

A. Entry into a parallel parking space.

B. Exit from a parallel parking space.

C. Entry into a bay parking space.

During manoeuvring phases, the steering

wheel performs rapid turns: do not hold

the steering wheel, do not put your hands

between the spokes of the steering wheel.

Watch out for any object that could

At any time, the driver can take back control by

holding the steering wheel.

The 180° view assists with exiting from

a parking bay in forward gear, making it

possible to see the approach of vehicles,

pedestrians and cyclists.

When Park Assist is activated, it prevents

entry into STOP mode of Stop & Start.

In STOP mode, activation of Park Assist

restarts the engine.

The Park Assist system cannot work with

the engine off.
