LANE DEPARTURE WARNING SYSTEM
System which detects the involuntary
crossing of longitudinal traffi c lane
markings on the ground (continuous or
discontinuous line).
Sensors, fi tted below the front bumper,
trigger a warning if the vehicle drifts
(speed higher than 50 mph (80 km/h)).
This system operates to its full potential
above all when used on motorways and
main roads. The lane departure warning sys-
tem cannot, in any circumstances,
replace the need for vigilance and
responsibility on the part of the
driver. Deactivation

 Press button A again, the indicator
light switches off.
Activation

 Press button A , the indicator light
comes on.
Operating fault
If the indicator light on the button switches
off while the system is active, this indi-
cates a malfunction.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
The detection may be disrupted:
- if the sensors are dirty (mud, snow, ...),
- if the markings on the ground are worn,
- if there is little contrast between the markings on the ground and
the road surface.
Detection
You are warned by the vibration of the
driver’s seat cushion:
- on the right-hand side, if the marking
on the ground has been crossed on
the right,
- on the left-hand side, if the marking on the ground has been crossed on
the left.
No warning is transmitted while the
direction indicator is active and for ap-
proximately 20 seconds after the di-
rection indicator is switched off.
A warning may be transmitted if a direc-
tion marking (arrow) or non-standard
marking (graffi ti) is crossed.
The status of the system remains
in the memory when the ignition is
switched off.
