With the lighting control stalk in the “AUTO”
position and if a low level of exterior brightness
is detected by the rain/sunshine sensor, the
sidelamps and dipped beam headlamps are
switched on automatically, without any action on
the part of the driver. They may also come on if
rain is detected, at the same time as automatic
operation of the windscreen wipers.
As soon as the brightness returns to a sufficient
level or after the windscreen wipers are switched
off, the lamps are switched off automatically.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction of the rain/
sunshine sensor, the vehicle’s lamps come
on and this warning lamp is displayed on the

This system is a driving aid.
The driver remains responsible for
the vehicle's lighting, its correct use in the
prevailing light, visibility and traffic conditions,
and for compliance with driving and vehicle
regulations.
Activation/Deactivation
It is configured in the Settings > Vehicle
touch screen application.
The state of the system is stored when the
ignition is switched off.
When the system detects thick fog, it
temporarily deactivates the function.
Operation
If the ambient light level is very low and traffic
conditions permit:
– The main beam headlamp s come
on automatically. These indicator
lamps light up on the instrument panel.
If the ambient light level is sufficient and/or the
traffic conditions do not allow the main beam
headlamps to be lit:
– The dipped beam headlamp s
remain lit. These indicator lamps
light up on the instrument panel.
The function is deactivated if the foglamps are
switched on or if the system detects poor visibility
conditions (e.g. fog, heavy rain, snowfall).
When the foglamps are switched off or when the
visibility conditions become favourable again, the
function is automatically reactivated.
This indicator lamp goes out when the
function is deactivated.
Pause
If the situation requires a change of headlamp
beam, the driver can take over at any time.
►  Switch the headlamps manually between
dipped and main beam to pause the function.
If the "AUTO" and "Dipped beam" indicator lamps
were on, the system changes to main beam.
If the "AUTO" and "Main beam" indicator lamps
were on, the system changes to dipped beam.
►  To reactivate the function, once again switch
the headlamps manually between dipped and
main beam.
Malfunction
If a malfunction occurs with the system or
the camera, this warning lamp lights up on
the instrument panel, accompanied by an audible

Have it checked by a dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Adaptive Frontlight
System
Available only on versions equipped with DS PIXEL
LED VISION 3.0 headlamps.
This function has several lighting modes, specific
to each driving situation.
The intensity and direction of the main headlamps
and the modules vary so as to increase or reduce
the range of the lighting.
The modules tilt so as to expand and direct the
light beam to increase or decrease the lighting up
of the sides of the road.
The function shifts the light beam to the sides
of the headlamp to ensure better illumination in
curves.
This function is a driving aid which
cannot, in any circumstances, replace the

68
Lighting and visibility04
need for vigilance on the part of the driver who
must continually adapt the driving of the
vehicle to the visibility and traffic conditions.
Activation/Deactivation
► Place the ring of the lighting control stalk in
the “AUTO” position.
It is configured in the Settings > Vehicle
touch screen application.
Operation
"City" mode

The width of the beam is increased to better
distinguish hazards on the side of the road
(pedestrians, intersections).
By default, the function starts in "Road" mode.
After a few seconds, the function switches to
"City" mode as long as the speed is below 19 mph
(30 km/h).
This mode is deactivated after a few seconds
above 31 mph (50 km/h).
"Road" mode

This lighting provides a higher light beam, an
increased intensity of the headlamps and a
decreased intensity of the modules.
This mode is active as long as the rear foglamps
are switched off and/or the front wipers are
activated for less than 2 minutes.
Between 19 mph (30 km/h) and 43 mph
(70 km/h), with the rear foglamps off and if the
front wipers activated for more than 2 minutes
continuously, the function switches to "Rain"
mode.
"Rain" mode

The beam is widened. The power of the modules
is increased to enable the driver to see the road markings more easily, whilst the intensity of the
main headlamps is reduced so as to improve the
driver’s vision (taking reflections caused by a wet
road into account).
Between 19 mph (30 km/h) and 43 mph
(70 km/h), with the rear foglamps off, front
wipers activated for many minutes continuously,
the function switches to "Road" mode.
"Fog" mode

This mode is activated if the vehicle is moving at
a speed between 0 and 43 mph (70 km/h) and the
rear foglamps are on.
Beyond 43 mph (70 km/h), the function switches
to "High beam" mode even if the rear foglamps
are activated.

69
Lighting and visibility04
"High beam" mode

At any time, this lighting mode can be triggered
by the Automatic headlamp dipping function
independent of the Adaptive Frontlight System
function.
This mode automatically adapts to the speed and
angle of the steering wheel.
The power and range of the lighting is maximised
to best illuminate the length and width of the
roadway.
Dynamic cornering lighting function

Available only with the "City" mode and "Road"
mode.
The headlamps follow the trajectory of the vehicle
in bends to provide better lighting of the road.
This is done by shifting the intensities of the light
area in the bends, to better anticipate obstacles
and changes in road direction.
This function operates from a certain angle of
rotation of the steering wheel and a certain yaw
speed.
DS PIXEL LED VISION 3.0
For more information, refer to the General
recommendations for automatic lighting
systems.
The DS PIXEL LED VISION 3.0 system has the
Adaptive Frontlight System function and also
manages the high beam in conjunction with the
Automatic headlamp dipping function.
The DS PIXEL LED VISION 3.0 headlamps
incorporate three LED modules:
–

a "Pix
el" module that varies the number of
LEDs lit and their intensity according to driving
conditions. This module manages the light flows
vertically and horizontally.
–

tw

o "Low beam" modules whose intensity only
varies with the fog mode.
All these LED modules contribute to the lighting in
the low beam and high beam positions.
This system automatically adapts the main
beam according to the driving conditions, so that
optimum illumination is maintained for the driver,
without causing a nuisance to other road users.
The driver remains responsible for the
vehicle's lighting, its correct use in the
prevailing light, visibility and traffic conditions,
and for compliance with driving and vehicle
regulations.
Activation/Deactivation
►  Place the ring of the lighting control stalk in
the “AUTO” position.
This indicator lamp comes on in the
instrument panel.
It is configured in the Settings > Vehicle
touch screen application.
The state of the system is stored when the
ignition is switched off.
When deactivated, the lighting system changes to
"Automatic illumination of lamps" mode.
Operation
Using a camera, the system detects the driving
conditions (brightness, lights from oncoming or
followed vehicles, road turns) and adapts the
beams of the main headlamps accordingly.
The modules that make up the main beams
switch on and off gradually, segment by segment,
depending on the driving conditions detected.
Nominal main beam lighting is restored as soon
as the vehicle is no longer detected by the system.
If the system is selected but the display on
the instrument panel and the alerts are not
available, the indicator lamp comes on in grey.

alerts are available.
If certain operating conditions (speed or
temperature) are not met, the indicator
lamp comes on in orange: only the display on the
instrument panel is available (in "Night Vision"
mode). Whilst the exterior light is too bright or the dipped
beam headlamps have not been switched on, the
alerts are not available.




The camera detection range is between 15 m (for
pedestrians) and 200 m, depending on visibility
conditions.
The image provided by the camera is displayed
in shades of grey in the instrument panel; warm
objects appear brighter than cold objects. If pedestrians or animals are detected, they
appear in yellow frames.
If the system detects a risk of
collision with pedestrians or
animals, it triggers an alert: a symbol appears in
the middle of the display window. The silhouette
of pedestrians or animals is framed in red.
If the "Night Vision" display mode has not been
selected, the alert is triggered in the form of a
temporary window.
In the event of an alert, the driver may act by
making an avoiding manoeuvre or by braking.

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.

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.
–
