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

th
e system may suffer temporary
interference in certain weather
conditions (rain, hail...).
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 by mud,
ice or snow.
ta
ke 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;
