Peugeot 2008: Driving / Visiopark 1

Refer to the General recommendations on the use of driving and manoeuvring aids.

As soon as reverse gear is engaged with the engine running, this system displays views of your vehicle’s close surroundings on the touch screen using a camera located at the rear of the vehicle.

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.
• 180° 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.

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

Principle of operation

Using the rear camera, the vehicle's close surroundings are recorded during manoeuvres 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.

Rear vision

To activate the camera, located on the tailgate, engage reverse and keep the speed of the vehicle below 6 mph (10  km/h).

The system is deactivated:

• Automatically, at speeds above approximately 12 mph (20  km/h),
• Automatically, if the tailgate 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.

180° view

The 180° 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.
