For more information, refer to the General recommendations on the use of driving and manoeuvring aids.

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 360 Vision.

The screen is divided into two parts with a contextual view and a view from above the vehicle in its close surroundings.

The parking sensors supplement the information on the view from above the vehicle.

Various contextual views may be displayed:

- Standard view.

- 180º view.

- Zoom view.

AUTO mode is activated by default.

In this mode, the system chooses the best view to display (standard or zoom).

You can change the type of view at any time during a manoeuvre.

► Press the button in the bottom left-hand corner of the touch screen.

► Select the type of view:

• "Standard view".
• "180º view".
• "Zoom view".
• "AUTO view".

The display is immediately updated with the type of view selected.

The system status is not saved when the ignition is switched off.

Operating principle

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 brackets) in real time and as the manoeuvre progresses.

It facilitates the alignment of your vehicle when parking and allows obstacles close to the vehicle to be seen. It is automatically deleted if the vehicle remains stationary for too long.

With 360 Vision, the image is created using both cameras, when going forward and when reversing.

When the function is activated, it is possible that the view from above is not displayed. If the system is activated when the vehicle has already moved, the view from above can be fully displayed.

Top Rear Vision

Rear view

To activate the camera located near the number plate lamps, engage reverse gear and do not exceed a speed of 6 mph (10 km/h).

The system is deactivated:

- Automatically, at speeds above approximately 12 mph (20 km/h),

- Automatically, if the boot is opened.

- When changing out of reverse gear.

- By pressing the white arrow in the upper-left corner of the touch screen.

AUTO mode

This mode is activated by default.

Using sensors in the rear bumper, the automatic view changes from the rear view (standard) to the view from above (zoom) as an obstacle is approached at the level of the red line (less than 30 cm) during a manoeuvre.

Standard view

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 according to the position of the steering wheel.

The red line 2 represents a distance of 30 cm from the rear 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.

Zoom view

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 nearby obstacles.

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 monitor the sides of the vehicle during the manoeuvre, using the mirrors.

Parking sensors also provide additional information about the area around the vehicle.

180º view

The 180º view facilitates reversing out of a parking space, making it possible to see the approach of vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists.

This view is not recommended for carrying out a complete manoeuvre.

It features 3 areas: left A, centre B and right C.

This view is only available via the view selection menu.

360 Vision

The vehicle has a camera at the front, fitted in the grille, and a camera at the rear, located close to the number plate lamps.

Using these cameras, the system displays the vehicle's near surroundings on the touch screen, offering views from the rear of the vehicle (rear vision) when reverse gear is engaged and views from the front of the vehicle (front vision) when the gearbox is in neutral or a gear is engaged.

Rear vision

The system activates automatically when reverse gear is engaged.

The system is deactivated:

- Automatically, at speeds above approximately 12 mph (20 km/h).

- When shifting out of reverse (the front vision image replaces the rear vision image for 7 seconds).

- By pressing the white arrow in the upper-left corner of the touch screen.

If a trailer or a bicycle carrier is fitted to the towball, the area behind the vehicle on the view from above goes dark.

The surroundings are reconstructed by the front camera only.

The rear vision views are similar to those for the Top Rear Vision function.

For more information on the Top Rear Vision function, refer to the corresponding section.

Front and rear vision

With the engine running and the speed below 12 mph (20 km/h), the system is activated via the Driving/Vehicle touch screen menu:

► Select "Visual parking assistance".

AUTO mode is displayed by default, with front vision, if the gearbox is in neutral or with a gear engaged, or with rear vision, if reverse is engaged.

The system is deactivated:

- Automatically above about 19 mph (30 km/h) (the image disappears temporarily from 12 mph (20 km/h) ).

- By pressing the white arrow in the upper-left corner of the touch screen.

AUTO mode

This mode is activated by default.

Using sensors in the front bumper, the automatic view changes from the front view (standard) to the view from above (zoom) as an obstacle is approached during a manoeuvre.

Standard view

The area in front of your vehicle is displayed on the screen.

The orange lines 1 represent the width of your vehicle, with the mirrors unfolded; their direction changes according to the position of the steering wheel.

The red line 2 represents a distance of 30 cm from the front bumper; the two orange lines 3 and 4 represent 1 m and 2 m, respectively.

This view is available with AUTO mode or by selecting it in the view change menu.

Zoom view

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.

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.

180º view

The 180º 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.
