Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, these
warning lamps light up on the
instrument panel.
A message appears, accompanied by an audible
signal.
In this case, the tyre under-inflation monitoring
function is no longer performed.
Have it checked by a dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Non-standard or 'space-saver' spare
wheel
The use of this type of spare wheel may
suspend tyre pressure monitoring.
In this case, the malfunction warning lamp
comes on and disappears once the wheel has
been replaced by one of uniform size (the same
as the others), the pressure readjusted and
the reinitialisation carried out.
Driving and manoeuvring
aids - General
recommendations
Driving and manoeuvring aids cannot, in
any circumstances, replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
The driver must comply with the Highway
Code, must remain in control of the vehicle in
all circumstances and must be able to retake
control of it at all times. The driver must adapt
the speed to climatic conditions, traffic and
the state of the road.
It is the driver's responsibility to constantly
monitor traffic conditions, assess the distance
and relative speed of other vehicles, and
anticipate their manoeuvres before using the
direction indicator and changing lanes.
These systems do not make it possible to
exceed the laws of physics.
Driving aids
You should hold the steering wheel with
both hands, always use the door and interior
mirrors, always leave your feet close to the
pedals and take a break every 2 hours.
Manoeuvring aids
The driver must always check the
surroundings of the vehicle before and during
the whole manoeuvre, in particular using the
mirrors.
Radar(s)
The operation of the radar(s), along with
any associated functions, may be affected by
the accumulation of dirt (e.g. mud, ice), in poor
weather conditions (e.g. heavy rain, snow), or
if the bumpers are damaged.
If the front bumper is to be repainted, contact
a dealer or a qualified workshop; certain types
of paint could interfere with the operation of
the radar(s).


Driving aids camera
This camera and its associated functions
may be impaired or not work if the windscreen
area in front of the camera is dirty, misty,
frosty, covered with snow, damaged or masked
by a sticker.
In humid and cold weather, demist the
windscreen regularly.
Poor visibility (inadequate street lighting,
heavy rain, thick fog, snowfall), dazzle
(headlamps of an oncoming vehicle, low sun,
reflections on a damp road, leaving a tunnel,
alternating shade and light) can also impair
detection performance.
In the event of a windscreen replacement,
contact a dealer or a qualified workshop
to recalibrate the camera; otherwise, the
operation of the associated driving aids may
be disrupted.
Other cameras
The images from the camera(s) displayed
on the touch screen or on the instrument panel
may be distorted by the terrain.

Programmable cruise
control
For more information, refer to the General
recommendations on the use of driving
and manoeuvring aids and the Specific
recommendations on cruise control.
This system automatically maintains the
vehicle’s speed at the value programmed
by the driver (speed setting), without the use of
the accelerator pedal.
Cruise control is switched on manually.
It requires a minimum vehicle speed of 25 mph
(40 km/h).
With an automatic gearbox, mode D or second
gear or higher in mode M must be engaged.
Cruise control remains active after
changing gear on engines fitted with the
Stop & Start function.
Switching off the ignition cancels any
speed setting.

►  Turn the thumbwheel 1 to the "OFF" position:
the cruise control information disappears from
the screen.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, dashes are
displayed flashing and then fixed instead of the
speed setting.
Have it checked by a dealer or a qualified
workshop.
DS DRIVE ASSIST
This system automatically adjusts the speed
and corrects the trajectory of the vehicle, using
Adaptive cruise control with Stop&Go function in
conjunction with Lane Positioning Assist.
These two functions must be activated and in
operation.
For more information on Adaptive cruise
control and Lane Positioning Assist, refer to the
corresponding sections.
The system assists the driver by acting on
the steering, acceleration and braking
within the physical limits and capacities of the
vehicle. Certain road infrastructure elements
or vehicles in the surroundings may not be
properly seen or may be poorly interpreted by
the camera and radar, resulting in an
unexpected change in direction, a lack of
steering correction and/or inappropriate
management of acceleration or braking.
Primarily designed for driving on main
roads and motorways, this system only
works with moving vehicles driving in the same
direction as your vehicle.
Adaptive cruise control
For more information, refer to the General
recommendations on the use of driving
and manoeuvring aids and the Specific
recommendations of cruise control.
This system automatically maintains the vehicle
speed at a value set by the driver (speed setting),
while respecting a safety distance from the
vehicle in front (target vehicle) previously set by
the driver. The system automatically manages the
acceleration and deceleration of the vehicle.
With the Stop function, the system manages
braking until the vehicle comes to a complete
stop.
With the Stop & Go function, the system manages
braking until the vehicle comes to a complete stop
and restarts the vehicle.

121
Driving06
The brake lamps come on if the vehicle is
slowed down by the system.
It can be dangerous to drive if the brake lamps
are not in perfect working order.


To do this, the system uses a camera fitted at the
top of the windscreen and, depending on version,
a radar fitted in the front bumper.
Primarily designed for driving on main
roads and motorways, this system only
works with moving vehicles driving in the same
direction as your vehicle.
If the driver activates the direction
indicator to overtake a slower vehicle,
cruise control may temporarily reduce the
distance to the target vehicle to facilitate
overtaking, without exceeding the speed
setting.

Activating the system (pause)
►  With the engine running, turn thumbwheel 1
downwards to the CRUISE position. Cruise control
is ready to operate (grey display).
Switching on cruise control and setting the
speed
With an automatic EAT8 gearbox, your speed
must be between 0 and 112 mph (0 and 180 km/h).
►  Press 2-SET- or 3-SET+: the current speed
becomes the speed setting (minimum 19 mph
(30 km/h)) and cruise control is immediately
activated (green display).
►  Press 3-SET+ to increase or 2-SET- to decrease
the speed setting (steps of 5 mph (km/h) if held
pressed).
Pressing and holding either 2-SET- or
3-SET+ results in a rapid change in the
speed of the vehicle.
Pausing/resumption of cruise control
►  Press 4-II or depress the brake pedal (grey
display).
Cruise control may also have been paused:
–

aut
omatically, if the electronic stability control
(ESC) system is triggered.
–

b
y engaging neutral.
–

b
y using the electric parking brake.
►  Press 4-II to resume cruise control (green
display).
With an EAT8 gearbox, following braking that
has brought the vehicle to a complete stop, if
the traffic conditions do not allow the vehicle to
begin moving again within 3 seconds of stopping,
press 4-II or depress the accelerator pedal to
move off.

125
Driving06
The system status is saved when the
ignition is switched off.
Cruise control
The driver must hold the steering wheel properly.
When cruise control is activated, the symbol is
displayed in green: by small steering actions, the
system directs the vehicle and keeps it in the
position chosen by the driver, in the traffic lane.
This position is not necessarily the centre of the
lane.
The driver can feel movements in the steering
wheel.
The driver can change the position of the vehicle
at any time, by turning the steering wheel. When
the driver feels that the vehicle’s position is
appropriate, whilst keeping hands on the steering
wheel, they must release the pressure to let the
system resume control of the steering, but the
vehicle will not be automatically centred within
the lane.
Pausing/Suspending the
system
The driver must act promptly if they
believe that the traffic conditions or the
state of the road surface require their
intervention, by moving the steering wheel to
temporarily suspend system operation. Any
intervention on the brake pedal that causes
the Adaptive cruise control to pause will also
cause the system to pause.
If the system detects that the driver is not
holding the wheel firmly enough, it
triggers a series of gradual alerts and then
deactivates itself if there is no response from
the driver.
If the function is suspended due to the
prolonged release of the force holding the
steering wheel, the function must be
reactivated by pressing the button again.
Automatic pause
– Triggering o f the ESC.
– Prolonged failure t o detect one of the lane
limit markings. In this case, the Lane keeping
assist function can take over, and the system will
reactivate itself once the operating conditions are
met again.
In response to action by the driver: suspension
– Activation of the direction indicators.
– Tra velling outside the lane limits.
–

T
oo tight a grip on the steering wheel or
dynamic action on the steering wheel.
–

Action on the brak
e pedal (resulting in a pause
until cruise control is reactivated) or accelerator
pedal (suspension for as long as the pedal is
depressed).
–

Pausing o
f Adaptive cruise control.
–

Deactiv
ation of the ASR.

Operating limits
The system may issue an alert when the
vehicle is travelling on a long, straight
road with smooth road surface even if the
driver thinks they are holding the steering
wheel correctly.
The system may not operate or may produce
unsuitable corrections to the steering in the
following situations:
–

Poor visibility (insufficien
t road lighting,
snowfall, rain, fog). –

Dazzle (headlamp
s of an oncoming vehicle, low
sun, reflections on a wet road surface, leaving a
tunnel, alternating light and shade).
– Windscreen area in fron t of the camera dirty,
misted up, frost-covered, snow-covered, damaged
or covered by a sticker.
–

Lane markings eroded, partially hidden (
snow,
mud) or multiple (roadworks, surface joints).
–

Tra
velling in a tight bend.
–

Winding roads.
–


Pre
sence of a tarmac joint on the road.
Risk of undesirable operation
The system should be deactivated in the
following situations:
–

D

riving with a "space-saver" type spare
wheel.
–

When t
owing or with a bicycle carrier
attached to a towing device, particularly when
a trailer is not connected or the trailer is not an
approved type.
–

Adv
erse weather conditions.
–

D

riving on slippery road surfaces (risk of
aquaplaning, snow, ice).
–

In roadw
orks or toll booth areas.
–

D

riving on racing circuits.

129
Driving06
This is a normal behavior indicating that a
condition is not fulfilled and which does not
request the support of a workshop.
In any situations with ignition on where automatic
braking presents a risk, deactivating the system
via the driving aids touch screen application is
recommended, for instance:
–

T
owing a trailer (particularly a trailer without
its own braking system).
–

Carrying long objects on roo
f bars.
–

D
riving with snow chains.
–

U
sing an automatic car wash.
–

Performing an
y maintenance (e.g. changing a
wheel, working inside the engine compartment).
–

Placing the v
ehicle on a rolling bench in a
workshop.
–

T
owing the vehicle.
–

Follo
wing an impact to the windscreen close to
the detection camera.
The system is automatically deactivated
once the use of a different diameter
"space-saver" type spare wheel is detected, or
if a fault with the two lateral brake lamps is
detected.
The system diagnoses permanently its
capability and may inhibit itself without
specific driver indication, if the system is
outside of the regular operating conditions
(e.g. sensor initialization, board voltage out of
regular range, activation of stability system).
Therefore, the system may not be available
just after starting the vehicle.
It can be dangerous to drive if the brake
lamps are not in perfect working order.
The driver must not overload the vehicle
(keep within the GVW limit and load
height limits for roof bars).
Following an impact (e.g.  a collision), the
system is automatically deactivated.
Have it checked by a dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Collision Risk Alert
This function warns the driver if there is a risk
of collision with the preceding vehicle, or with a
pedestrian or cyclist.
Modifying the alert trigger threshold
The trigger threshold determines the sensitivity
with which the function warns of the risk of
collision.
It is configured in the ADAS touch screen
application.
►  Select one of the 3 preset
thresholds: "Far ", "Medium" or "Near".
The selected threshold is memorised when the
ignition is switched off.
Operation
Depending on the collision risk detected by the
system and the alert trigger threshold chosen
by the driver, different levels of alert may be
triggered and displayed on the instrument panel.
The system takes into account the vehicle
dynamics, the difference speed of the own vehicle
and the object identified for the collision risk, and
the operation of the vehicle (e.g. actions on the
pedals, steering wheel) to trigger the alert at the
most relevant moment.
(orange)
Level 1: visual alert only, warning that the
preceding vehicle is very close.
The message "Vehicle close" is displayed.
(red)
Level 2: visual and audible alert, warning
that a collision is imminent.
The message "Brake!" is displayed.
Level 3: a micro-braking may be given, confirming
the risk of collision (optional).
While approaching a vehicle too quickly,
the level 2 alert may be displayed directly.
Important: the level 1 alert depends on the
trigger threshold selected. It reacts only on
moving vehicles. It is disabled automatically at
lower speed.
