Cruise control can also be paused
temporarily:
–

b

y pressing the brake pedal.
–

aut
omatically, if the electronic stability
control (ESC) system is triggered.
Changing the cruise speed
setting
The cruise control must be active.
To change the cruise speed setting, based on the
vehicle’s current speed:
►  For steps of +/- 1 mph (1 km/h), briefly
press 2-SET- or 3-SET+ repeatedly.
►  For steps of +/- 5 mph (5 km/h), press and
hold 2-SET- or 3-SET+.
Pressing and holding 2-SET- or 3-SET+
results in a rapid change in the speed of
the vehicle.
As a precaution, we recommend setting a
cruise speed fairly close to the current
speed of your vehicle, to avoid any sudden
acceleration or deceleration of the vehicle.
To change the cruise speed setting using the
speed suggested by the Road signs recognition
function displayed on the instrument panel:
►  Press 5-MEM once; a message is displayed,
confirming the memorisation request.
►  Press 5-MEM again to save the suggested
speed.
The new speed setting value is displayed on the
instrument panel.
Switching off
►  Turn the thumbwheel 1 to the "OFF" position:
the cruise control information disappears from
the screen.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, dashes are
displayed flashing and then fixed instead of the
speed setting.
Have it checked by a dealer or a qualified
workshop.
DS DRIVE ASSIST
This system automatically adjusts the speed
and corrects the trajectory of the vehicle, using
Adaptive cruise control with Stop&Go function in
conjunction with Lane Positioning Assist.
These two functions must be activated and in
operation.
For more information on Adaptive cruise
control and Lane Positioning Assist, refer to the
corresponding sections.
The system assists the driver by acting on
the steering, acceleration and braking
within the physical limits and capacities of the
vehicle. Certain road infrastructure elements
or vehicles in the surroundings may not be
properly seen or may be poorly interpreted by
the camera and radar, resulting in an
unexpected change in direction, a lack of
steering correction and/or inappropriate
management of acceleration or braking.
Primarily designed for driving on main
roads and motorways, this system only
works with moving vehicles driving in the same
direction as your vehicle.
Adaptive cruise control
For more information, refer to the General
recommendations on the use of driving
and manoeuvring aids and the Specific
recommendations of cruise control.
This system automatically maintains the vehicle
speed at a value set by the driver (speed setting),
while respecting a safety distance from the
vehicle in front (target vehicle) previously set by
the driver. The system automatically manages the
acceleration and deceleration of the vehicle.
With the Stop function, the system manages
braking until the vehicle comes to a complete
stop.
With the Stop & Go function, the system manages
braking until the vehicle comes to a complete stop
and restarts the vehicle.

122
Driving06
If the driver takes no action after the vehicle
has been stopped, the electric parking brake is
applied automatically after about 5 minutes.
Cruise control remains active after
changing gear, regardless of the gearbox
type.
When the driver attempts to reactivate
cruise control after the function has been
paused, the message "Activation not possible,
unsuitable conditions" is displayed briefly if
reactivation is not possible (safety conditions
not met).
Changing the programmed speed setting with
the Road signs recognition function
►  Press 5-MEM to accept the speed suggested
by the system on the instrument panel, then press
again to confirm.
To prevent sudden acceleration or
deceleration of the vehicle, select a speed
setting relatively close to the vehicle's current
speed.
Changing the inter-vehicle distance
►  Press 6 to display the distance setting
thresholds ("Distant", "Normal", "Close"), then
press again to select a threshold.
After a few seconds, the option is accepted and
will be memorised when the ignition is switched
off.
Temporarily exceeding the speed setting
►  Press the accelerator pedal fully. Distance
monitoring and cruise control are deactivated
while acceleration is maintained. "Cruise control
on hold" is displayed.

Active Safety Brake with
Collision Risk Alert and
Intelligent emergency
braking assistance
For more information, refer to the General
recommendations on the use of driving
and manoeuvring aids.


This system:
– w arns the driver that their vehicle is at risk of
collision with the preceding vehicle, a pedestrian
or a cyclist.
–

reduc
es the vehicle's speed to avoid a collision
or to limit its severity.
The speed will be reduced by a maximum
of 16 mph (25 km/h) (versions with camera
only) or by a maximum of 31 mph (50 km/h)
(versions with camera and radar).
The system also takes motorcyclists into
account.
It may also react on animals. Animals
(especially animals smaller than 0.5 m)
and objects on the road are not necessarily
detected.
This system includes three functions:
–

Collision Risk Alert.
–


In

telligent emergency braking assistance
(iEBA).
–

Activ
e Safety Brake (automatic emergency
braking).


The vehicle has a multifunction camera located
at the top of the windscreen and, depending on
version, a radar located in the front bumper.
This system does not replace the need for
driver vigilance.
This system is designed to assist the driver
and improve road safety.
It is the driver's responsibility to continuously
monitor traffic conditions in accordance with
applicable driving regulations.
As soon as the system detects a potential
collision, it prepares the braking circuit.
This may cause a slight noise and a slight
sensation of deceleration.
Deactivation/Activation
By default, the system is automatically activated
at every engine start.
It is configured in the ADAS touch screen
application.
Deactivation of the system is signalled by
the illumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by the display of a message.
Operating conditions and limits
Vehicle moving forward without trailer.
Brake system operational.
Seat belts fastened for all passengers.
Stabilised speed on roads with no or low
curvature.
This warning lamp lights up on the
instrument panel without any additional
message, to indicate that the automatic braking
system is not available.

129
Driving06
This is a normal behavior indicating that a
condition is not fulfilled and which does not
request the support of a workshop.
In any situations with ignition on where automatic
braking presents a risk, deactivating the system
via the driving aids touch screen application is
recommended, for instance:
–

T
owing a trailer (particularly a trailer without
its own braking system).
–

Carrying long objects on roo
f bars.
–

D
riving with snow chains.
–

U
sing an automatic car wash.
–

Performing an
y maintenance (e.g. changing a
wheel, working inside the engine compartment).
–

Placing the v
ehicle on a rolling bench in a
workshop.
–

T
owing the vehicle.
–

Follo
wing an impact to the windscreen close to
the detection camera.
The system is automatically deactivated
once the use of a different diameter
"space-saver" type spare wheel is detected, or
if a fault with the two lateral brake lamps is
detected.
The system diagnoses permanently its
capability and may inhibit itself without
specific driver indication, if the system is
outside of the regular operating conditions
(e.g. sensor initialization, board voltage out of
regular range, activation of stability system).
Therefore, the system may not be available
just after starting the vehicle.
It can be dangerous to drive if the brake
lamps are not in perfect working order.
The driver must not overload the vehicle
(keep within the GVW limit and load
height limits for roof bars).
Following an impact (e.g.  a collision), the
system is automatically deactivated.
Have it checked by a dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Collision Risk Alert
This function warns the driver if there is a risk
of collision with the preceding vehicle, or with a
pedestrian or cyclist.
Modifying the alert trigger threshold
The trigger threshold determines the sensitivity
with which the function warns of the risk of
collision.
It is configured in the ADAS touch screen
application.
►  Select one of the 3 preset
thresholds: "Far ", "Medium" or "Near".
The selected threshold is memorised when the
ignition is switched off.
Operation
Depending on the collision risk detected by the
system and the alert trigger threshold chosen
by the driver, different levels of alert may be
triggered and displayed on the instrument panel.
The system takes into account the vehicle
dynamics, the difference speed of the own vehicle
and the object identified for the collision risk, and
the operation of the vehicle (e.g. actions on the
pedals, steering wheel) to trigger the alert at the
most relevant moment.
(orange)
Level 1: visual alert only, warning that the
preceding vehicle is very close.
The message "Vehicle close" is displayed.
(red)
Level 2: visual and audible alert, warning
that a collision is imminent.
The message "Brake!" is displayed.
Level 3: a micro-braking may be given, confirming
the risk of collision (optional).
While approaching a vehicle too quickly,
the level 2 alert may be displayed directly.
Important: the level 1 alert depends on the
trigger threshold selected. It reacts only on
moving vehicles. It is disabled automatically at
lower speed.

131
Driving06
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).

132
Driving06
Driver Attention Warning by
Camera


The system assesses the driver's level of
alertness, fatigue and distraction by
identifying trajectory changes in relation to the
lane markings.
To do this, the system uses a camera, placed on
the upper part of the windscreen.
This system is particularly suited to fast roads
(speed higher than 43 mph (70 km/h)).
At a first alert level, the driver is warned by the
message "Caution!", accompanied by an audible
signal.
After three first-level alerts, the system triggers
a further alert with the message "Driving at
risk: Take a break", accompanied by a more
pronounced audible signal.
In certain driving conditions (poor road
surface or strong winds), the system may
give alerts independent of the driver's level of
vigilance.
The following situations may interfere
with the operation of the system or
prevent it from working:
–

lane markings ab
sent, worn, hidden (snow,
mud) or multiple (roadworks);
–

clo
se to the vehicle ahead (lane markings
not detected);
–

roads tha
t are narrow, winding, etc.
DS DRIVER ATTENTION
MONITORING
(Depending on version)

An additional (infrared) camera is fitted to
the steering column, behind the steering
wheel, to monitor driver behaviour.
The camera analyses, firstly, the direction of the
driver's gaze and head to assess their distraction
level and, secondly, the closing of their eyelids to
assess the level of their vigilance and attention.
When the vigilance level (distraction or loss of
attention) is low, the system emits an alert.
With the "Personal" display mode of the digital
instrument panel, the driver can select the
permanent display of the "Level of vigilance"
diagram, which enables them to monitor this
information in real time.
The system is activated at speeds above
16 mph (25 km/h).
The following situations may interfere
with the operation of the system or
prevent it from working:
–

s

ystem’s camera field of vision blocked or
obstructed.

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

138
Driving06
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.
