Have the system checked by a P
e
uge

dealer or a qualified workshop. When the cruise control is working, take
care if making a maintained press on
one of the cruise control programmed
speed modification buttons: this can
lead to a very quick change in the
speed of your vehicle.
Do not use the active cruise control on
slippery sur faces or in heavy traffic.
When descending a steep hill, the
cruise control may not be able to
prevent the vehicle from exceeding the
programmed speed.
When ascending a steep hill or when
towing, it might not be possible to attain
or maintain the programmed speed.

Display of inter-vehicle time
using a radar located at the front of the vehicle,
this system helps the driver maintain a safe
distance between their vehicle and the one in
front, by displaying the current inter-vehicle
time in the instrument panel.
It is the time interval, expressed in seconds,
that separates two vehicles in line. t
h
e
recommended safe value is about 2 seconds:
refer to the legislation or highway code in force
in your country.Activation / deactivation*
F Press this button, the indicator lamp comes on.
th

e measurement is displayed for
information only: the system takes no
action on the vehicle.
th

is system does not in any
circumstances replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver who
must remain in control of the vehicle at
all times.
th

e system is not designed for urban
use nor for more dynamic driving
(bends, acceleration, harsh braking…)
but rather when driving at a steady
speed.
th

e system is active in a speed range
between 42 and 93 mph (70 and
150


km/h).
Stationary vehicles and certain other
road users (such as bicycles for
example) are not detected.
th

e system displays inter-vehicle time
values of between 3 seconds and 0.5 of
a second.
Below 0.5 of a second, the value
displayed is maintained at this level,
even if the true inter-vehicle time is less.
th

e state of the system is memorised when the
ignition is switched off. Activation of the system is done in the " Driving
assistance " menu, with the engine running.
* Depending on version.
Conditions for display
the active cruise control must not be selected
(the active cruise control information is
displayed instead of that for the inter-vehicle
t i m e).

In the event of a fault with the system,
this warning lamp is displayed
accompanied by a message.
Operating fault
Have the system checked by a Pe ugeOt
dealer or a qualified workshop.
At the first use of the system after
repair, a message may be displayed
indicating that the system is initialising.
th

in progress. As soon as the message
disappears the system is operational
again. If the message does not

the change from one level of alert
to the next takes place if the driving
conditions do not change (speed
unchanged, no change of lane...).If the speed of your vehicle is too high
when approaching another vehicle, the
first level of alert may not be displayed:
the level 2 alert may be displayed
di r e c t l y.
On the other hand, the level 1 alert
is never displayed with the "close"
triggering threshold 3.
Severe weather conditions (very heavy
rain, accumulations of snow in front
of the radar) may inter fere with the
operation of the system, resulting in
the display of this message "
SYSTEM
INACTIVE: Reduced visibility ".
t
h
e
system will remain unavailable until the
message disappears.
the
emergency collision alert system
does not replace the need for vigilance
on the part of the driver.
Alerts
According to the collision risk detected by
the system and the alert threshold chosen,
different levels of alert can be given.
Level 1: visual alert only (orange)
indicating that the vehicle in front is
very close.
t
h
e message "Vehicle
close " is displayed.
Level 2 : visual (red) and audible
alerts indicating that a collision is
imminent.
t
h
e message "Brake!" is
displayed.
th

is level of alert is based on the inter-vehicle
time between your vehicle and the one in front.
th

is level of alert is based on a time before
collision. It takes account of the vehicle
dynamics, the speed of your vehicle and
the speed of the vehicle in front, the driving
conditions, the situation with your vehicle
(cornering, pedals pressed, etc.) to trigger the
alert at the right moment.

this system indicates the proximity of an
obstacle (person, vehicle, tree, gate, etc.)
which comes within the field of detection of
sensors located in the bumper.
Certain types of obstacle (stake, roadworks
cone, etc.) detected initially will no longer be
detected at the end of the manoeuvre due to
the presence of blind spots.
Parking sensors
this function cannot, in any
circumstances, take the place of
the vigilance of the driver.
the
system is switched on by engaging reverse
gear. t
h
is is accompanied by an audible signal.
th

e system is switched off when you come out
of reverse gear.
Audible assistance
the proximity information is given by an
intermittent audible signal, the frequency of
which increases as the vehicle approaches the
obstacle.
th

e sound emitted by the speaker (right or left)
indicates the side on which the obstacle is located.
When the distance between the vehicle and
the obstacle becomes less than approximately
thirty centimetres, the audible signal becomes
continuous.
Rear parking sensors
Visual assistance
this supplements the audible signal by
displaying bars in the screen or the instrument
panel which move progressively nearer to
the vehicle. When the obstacle is near,
the "Danger" symbol is displayed.
