Collision risk alert
System providing a warning to the driver that their vehicle is at risk of collision with the vehicle in front.
T he   collision   risk   alert   system   can   be   activated  
o
r   deactivated   in   the   touch   screen   tablet.
In the Driving  menu, select the " Settings" tab, 
then " Driving aid " and "Collision risk alert ".
This
  system   has   been   designed   to  
i
mprove   driving   safety.
It is the responsibility of the driver to 
keep
  a   constant   check   on   the   state   of  
t
he traffic, to assess the relative speed 
and
  distance   of   other   vehicles.
The
  collision   risk   alert   system   can   never  
r
eplace   the   need   for   vigilance   on   the  
p
art   of   the   driver.
This system operates from 20 mph 
(30 km/h),
  only   when   other   vehicles   are  
r
unning   in   the   same   direction   as   your  
v
ehicle;   the   system   does   not   detect  
s
tationary   objects.   A   radar   is   fitted   at  
t
he   front   of   the   vehicle. The alert thresholds determine how you want to 
be
  alerted   to   the   presence   of   a   vehicle   running  
i
n   front   of   you.
You
  can   choose   from   three   thresholds:
-
 
1
 :   "Distant ".
-
 
2
 :   "Normal ".
-
 
3
 :   "Close ".
Setting the thresholds for 
the alert
This function can be deactivated 
permanently by a CITROËN dealer  
or
  a   qualified   workshop.
In the Driving menu, select the " Settings" tab, 
then " Driving aid " and select the symbol for 
the " Collision risk alert "
  function:

However, with the "Blind spot monitoring system"   activated,   if   the   driver   starts   changing  
l
ane and another vehicle is detected in the 
vehicle's
  blind   spot,   the   system   will   correct  
t
he   trajectory   of   the   vehicle   even   though   the  
d
irection   indicators   are   on.
For more information on the Blind spot 
monitoring system ,
  refer   to   the   corresponding  
s
ection. If the system detects that the driver is 
not
  holding   the   wheel   firmly   enough  
d
uring   an   automatic   correction   of  
t
rajectory,   it   interrupts   the   correction.  
A
n   alert   is   triggered   to   encourage  
t
he   driver   to   take   back   control   of   the  
v
ehicle.
Activation / Deactivation
Activation / deactivation of the system is done i
n the Driving  menu   of   the   touch   screen   tablet.
Select the " Driving assistance " tab then 
" Help staying in lane ".
The state of the system stays in memory when 
the
  ignition   is   switched   off.
While the direction indicators are on and for 
a
 
few
 
seconds
 
after
 
switching
 
them
 
off,
 
the
 
s
ystem
 
considers
 
that
 
any
 
change
 
of
 
trajectory
 
i
s
 
voluntary
 
and
 
no
 
correction
 
is
 
triggered

Fatigue detection system
It is recommended that you take a break as soon as you feel tired or at least every two hours.
D epending   on   version,   the   vehicle   either   has   the   "Driving   time   warning   system"   only,   or   this   combined   with   the   "Fatigue   detection   system".
Driving time warning
The system t riggers  a n  a lert  o nce  i t  d etects  t hat  t
he   driver   has   not   taken   a   break   after   two   hours  
o
f   driving   at   a   speed   above   40   mph   (65   km/h).
This
  alert   takes   the   form   of   the   display   of   a  
m
essage   encouraging   you   to   take   a   break,  
a
ccompanied   by   an   audible   signal.
If the driver does not follow this advice, the 
alert is repeated hourly until the vehicle is 
stopped.
The system cannot in any 
circumstances replace the need for 
vigilance
 
on
 
the
 
part
 
of
 
the
 
driver.
Do
 
not
 
take
 
the
 
wheel
 
if
 
you
 
are
 
tired. As soon as the speed of the vehicle 
drops
  below   40   mph   (65   km/h),   the  
s
ystem   goes   into   standby.
The
  driving   time   is   counted   again   once  
t
he   speed   is   above   40   mph   (65   km/h).
The
  system   resets   itself   if   one   of   the   following  c
onditions   is   met:
-
 
e
 ngine   running,   the   vehicle   has   been  
s
tationary for more than 15 minutes,
-
 
t
 he   ignition   has   been   switched   off   for   a   few  
m
inutes,
-
 
t
 he   driver's   seat   belt   is   unfastened   and  
t
heir   door   is   open.
The system is activated or deactivated in the

Front parking sensors
The sound emitted by the speaker (front or rear) indicates whether the obstacle 
is
  in   front   or   behind. The system will be deactivated 
automatically
  if   a   trailer   is   being  
t
owed or a bicycle carrier is fitted on 
a towbar (vehicle fitted with a towbar 
installed
  in   line   with   the   manufacturer's  
r
ecommendations).In bad weather or in winter, ensure 
that the sensors are not covered with 
mud,
  ice   or   snow.   When   reverse   gear   is  
e
ngaged,   an   audible   signal   (long   beep)  
i
ndicates   that   the   sensors   may   be   dirty.
Certain sound sources (motorcycle, 
lorry,
  pneumatic   drill,   etc.)   may   trigger  
t
he   audible   signals   of   the   parking  
s
ensor   system.
As
 
an
 
addition   to   the   rear   parking   sensors,   the  
f
ront
 
parking   sensors   are   triggered   when   an  
o
bstacle is detected in front and the speed of 
the
 
vehicle   remains   below   6   mph   (10   km/h).
The
 
front   parking   sensors   are   interrupted   if  
t
he vehicle stops for more than three seconds 
in
 
for ward   gear,   if   no   further   obstacles   are  
d
etected or when the speed of the vehicle 
exceeds   6   mph   (10   km/h). The   parking   sensors   can   be   deactivated   in   the  
t
ouch   screen   tablet.
