Stop & Start
The Stop & Start system puts the engine
t emporarily into standby – STOP mode – during
stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams,...).
The engine restarts automatically – START
mode – as soon as you want to move off.
The restart takes place instantly, quickly and
silently.
Per fect for urban use, the Stop & Start system
reduces fuel consumption and exhaust
emissions as well as the noise level when
stationary.
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
The " ECO" warning lamp comes on in
the instrument panel and the engine
goes into standby automatically:
- with a manual gearbox , at speeds below
12 mph (20 km/h) or when the vehicle is
stationary with the PureTech 130 petrol and
BlueHDi 115 and 120 Diesel versions, when
you place the gear lever in neutral and you
release the clutch pedal,
-

W
ith an automatic gearbox , when the
vehicle is stationary and when you press
the brake pedal or put the gear selector in
position N . If your vehicle is fitted with this
system, a time counter calculates
the time spent in STOP mode
during a journey. It resets to
zero every time the ignition is
switched on with the key or the
"START/STOP" button.
STOP mode does not affect the operation
of vehicle systems such as braking, power
steering...

System which keeps your vehicle immobilised
temporarily (approximately 2 seconds) when
starting on a gradient, the time it takes to
move your foot from the brake pedal to the
accelerator pedal.
This system only operates when:
-

t
he vehicle is completely stationary, with
your foot on the brake pedal,
-

c
ertain slope conditions are met,
-

w
ith the driver’s door closed.
The hill start assist function cannot be

Detection may be impeded:
- i f the sensors are dirty (mud, snow...),
-

i
f the road markings are not clearly
visible,
-

i
f there is little contrast between the
markings on the road and the road
sur face.Blind spot monitoring
This driving assistance system warns the driver
of the presence of another vehicle in the blind
spot angle of their vehicle (areas hidden from
the driver's field of vision), as soon as this
presents a potential danger. This system is designed to improve safety
when driving and is in no circumstances
a substitute for the use of the interior rear
view mirror and door mirrors. It is the
driver's responsibility to constantly check
the traffic, to assess the distances and
relative speeds of other vehicles and to
predict their movements before deciding
whether to change lane.
The blind spot monitoring system can
never replace the need for vigilance on the
part of the driver.
A warning lamp appears in the door mirror on
the side in question:
- i
mmediately, when being overtaken,
- a fter a delay of about one second, when
overtaking a vehicle slowly.
06
Driving

158
F When switching on the ignition or with the engine running, press this button to activate
the system; the indicator lamp comes on.
Sensors fitted in the front and rear bumpers
monitor the blind spots.
The alert is given by a warning lamp which
comes on in the door mirror on the side in
question as soon as a vehicle – car, lorry, cycle
– is detected.
For this, the following conditions must be met:
-

a
ll the vehicles must be moving in the same
direction,
-

t
he speed of your vehicle is between 7 and
87 mph (12 and 140 km/h),
-

y
ou overtake a vehicle with a speed
difference of less than 6 mph (10 km/h),
-

w
hen a vehicle overtakes you with a speed
difference of less than 16 mph (25 km/h),
-

t
he traffic must be flowing normally, No alert will be given in the following situations:
-

i
n the presence of non-moving objects
(parked vehicles, barriers, street lamps,
road signs, etc.),
-

w
ith vehicles moving in the opposite
direction,
-

d
riving on a winding road or a sharp corner,-

w
hen overtaking or being overtaken by a
very long vehicle (lorry, bus, etc.) which is
also in the rear blind spot and present in the
driver’s front field of vision,
-

w
hen overtaking quickly,
-

i
n very heavy traffic: vehicles detected in
front and behind are confused with a lorry or
a stationary object.
Operation- in the case of an overtaking manoeuvre, if this is prolonged and the vehicle being
overtaken remains in the blind spot,
-

y
ou are driving on a straight or slightly
curved road,
-

y
our vehicle is not pulling a trailer,
a


caravan...

F To deactivate the system, press this button again; the warning lamp goes off.
The status of the system remains in memory
when the ignition is switched off.
The system is automatically deactivated
when towing with a towbar approved by
DS AUTOMOBILES.
Malfunction
In the event of a fault, the warning lamp in the
button flashes then goes off.
Contact the dealer network or a qualified
workshop. The system may suffer temporary
interference in certain weather conditions
(rain, hail, etc.).
In particular, driving on a wet sur face
or moving from a dry area to a wet area
can cause false alerts (for example, the
presence of a fog of water droplets in
the blind spot angle is interpreted as a
vehicle).
In bad or wintry weather, ensure that the
sensors are not covered with mud, ice or
snow.
Take care not to cover the warning zone in
the door mirrors or the detection zones on
the front and rear bumpers with adhesive
labels or other objects; they may hamper
the correct operation of the system.
Parking sensors
This system cannot in any circumstances
replace the need for vigilance on the part
of the driver.
This system indicates the proximity of an
obstacle (person, vehicle, tree, gate, etc.)
entering the detection range of the sensors
located in the bumper.
Certain types of obstacle (post, roadworks
cone, etc.) detected initially will no longer
be detected at the end of the manoeuvre, if
they are located in blind spots in the sensors'
detection range.

vehicle. Follow the instructions for fitting
and use supplied with the roof bars.
Some models come fitted with longitudinal
bars. These are purely aesthetic.
Transverse bars must not be fitted to
these longitudinal bars.
When fitting roof bars, use only the four
anchorage points located in the roof frame.
The points are masked by the vehicle doors
when closed.
Remove the protective covers, levering them
off with a screwdriver. Be careful not to scratch
the paint.
The roof bar mountings include a stud which
should be fitted to the opening in each
anchorage point.
Keep the protective covers safe so that they
can be refitted after removing the roof bars.
