Malfunction
This warning lamp lights up on the
instrument panel with the message
"Sensor blind" in certain cases.
Version with camera only: the system is
deactivated.
Version with camera and radar: the system may
continue to operate in a degraded mode.
This may be caused by a reduced visibility
(e.g. rain, fog, snow, blinding by low sun) or by a
real sensor blockage. In this case, stop the vehicle
and verify if the front camera or the front radar is
covered by dirt, snow, ice or anything preventing
the sensing.
In the event of a malfunction, this warning
lamp lights up on the instrument panel,
accompanied by the display of a message and an
audible signal.
Have it checked by a dealer or a qualified
workshop.
If these warning lamps come on
after the engine has been switched
off and then restarted, contact a dealer or a
qualified workshop to have the system checked.
These warning lamps light up on
the instrument panel and/or in the
warning lamp display for seat belts and front
passenger airbag to indicate that the driver's and/
or front passenger's seat belt is not fastened
(depending on version). The automatic braking
system is deactivated until the seat belts are
fastened.
Distraction detection
For more information, refer to the General
recommendations on the use of driving
and manoeuvring aids.
The function comprises the "Driver Attention
Warning" and "Driver Attention Warning by
Camera" systems, combined, depending on
version, with the "DS DRIVER ATTENTION
MONITORING" system.
These systems are in no way designed to
keep the driver awake or to prevent the
driver from falling asleep at the wheel.
It is the driver’s responsibility to stop if feeling
tired.
Take a break if you are feeling tired or at least
every 2 hours.
Activation/Deactivation
By default, the function is automatically activated
at every engine start.
The settings are changed via the ADAS
touch screen application.
Driver Attention Warning
The system triggers an alert when it
detects that the driver has not taken a
break after two hours of driving at a speed above
43 mph (70 km/h).
This alert is issued via the display of a message
encouraging the driver to take a break,
accompanied by an audible signal.
If the driver does not follow this advice, the alert
is repeated hourly until the vehicle is stopped.
The system resets itself if one of the following
conditions is met:
–

With the engine running, the v
ehicle has been
stationary for more than 15 minutes.
–

The ignition has been s
witched off for a few
minutes.
–

The driv
er's seat belt is unfastened and their
door is opened.
As soon as the speed of the vehicle drops
below 43 mph (70 km/h), the system goes
into standby.
Driving time starts being counted again once
the speed reaches above 43 mph (70 km/h).

Malfunction
If the event of a malfunction, this warning
lamp lights up on the instrument panel,
accompanied by the display of a message.
Have it checked by a dealer or a qualified
workshop.
The system may be temporarily disturbed
by certain weather conditions (e.g. rain,
hail).
In particular, driving on a wet road or going
from a dry to a wet area can cause false alerts
(e.g. presence of a cloud of water droplets in
the blind spot interpreted as a vehicle).
In bad or wintry weather, ensure that the
sensors are not covered by 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

The sound emitted by the speaker (front
or rear) locates the obstacle relative to
the vehicle, whether in front of or behind it on
its path.
Side parking sensors

Using four additional sensors located on the sides
of the bumpers, the system records the position
of obstacles during the manoeuvre and indicates
them when they are located alongside the vehicle.
Only fixed obstacles are indicated
correctly. Moving obstacles detected at
the beginning of the manoeuvre may be
indicated mistakenly, while moving obstacles
that appear alongside the vehicle but were not
previously recorded will not be indicated.
Objects memorised during the manoeuvre
will no longer be stored after switching off
the ignition.
Deactivation/Activation
(Depending on country of sale)
It is configured in the ADAS touch screen
application.
If the function is deactivated, this
indicator lamp lights up on the instrument
panel.
The system status is saved when the ignition is
switched off.


The rear parking sensors are deactivated
automatically if a trailer or bicycle carrier
is connected to a towing device installed in
accordance with the Manufacturer's
recommendations.
In this case, the outline of a trailer is displayed
at the rear of the image of the vehicle.
When starting the vehicle, the graphic
and audible aids are only available after
the touch screen has started up.
Operating limits
If the boot is heavily loaded, the vehicle may tilt,
affecting distance measurements.
Malfunction

changing into reverse gear, these
warning lamps light up on the instrument panel,
accompanied by the display of a message and an
audible signal (short beep).
Have it checked by a dealer or a qualified

menu, a contextual view and a view from above
the vehicle in its close surroundings.

Compatibility of fuels
Petrol fuels conforming to the EN228 standard
containing up to 5% and 10% ethanol respectively.

Diesel fuels conforming to the EN590, EN16734
and EN16709 standards and containing up to
7%, 10%, 20% and 30% fatty acid methyl ester
respectively. The use of B20 or B30 fuels, even
occasionally, imposes special maintenance
conditions referred to as "Arduous conditions".

Paraffinic Diesel fuel conforming to the EN15940
standard.
The use of any other type of (bio)fuel
(e.g. pure or diluted vegetable or animal
oils, domestic fuel) is strictly prohibited - risk
of damaging the engine and fuel system!
The only fuel additives authorised for use
are those that meet the B715001 (petrol)
or B715000 (Diesel) standards.
Diesel at low temperature
At temperatures below 0 °C (+32 °F), the
formation of paraffins in summer-type Diesel
fuels could prevent the engine from operating correctly. In these temperature conditions, use
winter-type Diesel fuel and keep the fuel tank
more than 50 % full.
At temperatures below -15 °C (+5 °F) to avoid
problems starting, it is best to park the vehicle
under shelter (heated garage).
Travelling abroad
Certain fuels could damage your vehicle’s engine.
In certain countries, the use of a particular fuel
may be required (specific octane rating, specific
trade name, etc.) to ensure correct operation of
the engine.
For all additional information, consult a dealer.
Refuelling
Fuel tank capacity: approximately 55
litres (Diesel), 62 litres (Petrol) or 43 litres
(Rechargeable hybrid).
Reserve level: approximately 6 litres.
Low fuel level
When the low fuel level is reached, this
warning lamp lights up on the instrument
panel, accompanied by the display of a message
and an audible signal. When it first comes on,
about 6 litres of fuel remain.
Until sufficient fuel is added, this warning lamp
appears every time the ignition is switched on,
accompanied by the message and the audible
signal. When driving, this message and audible
signal are repeated with increasing frequency as
the fuel level drops towards 0.
You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid
running out of fuel.
For more information on Running out of fuel
(Diesel), refer to the corresponding section.
A small arrow by the warning lamp
indicates which side of the vehicle the
fuel filler flap is located on.
Stop & Start
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition.
Refuelling
Any addition of fuel must be in quantities of at
least 10 litres, in order to be registered by the fuel
gauge.
Opening the filler flap may create a noise caused
by an inrush of air. This vacuum is entirely normal,
resulting from the sealing of the fuel system.
To refuel in complete safety:
►  Always switch off the engine.
