Blind spot sensors
Operation
A warning lamp appears in the door mirror on
the side in question:
-
im
mediately, when being overtaken,
-
af

ter a delay of about one second, when
overtaking a vehicle slowly.thi
s driving assistance system warns the driver
of the presence of another vehicle in the blind
spot angle of their vehicle (areas masked from
the driver's field of vision), as soon as this
presents a potential danger.
thi
s indicator lamp comes on in the instrument
panel.
Sensors fitted in the front and rear bumpers
monitor the blind spots.
thi

s system is designed to improve safety when driving and is in no circumstances a
substitute for the use of the interior rear view mirror and door mirrors. It is the driver's
responsibility to constantly check the traffic, to asses the distances and relative speeds of
other vehicles and to predict their movements before deciding whether to change lane.
the b

lind spot sensor system does not replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver. Activation of the system is done in
the "
Driving assistance " menu of
the touch screen.

Press this button (depending on
version) to activate the function; the

difference of less than 6 mph (10 km/h),
-
wh

en a vehicle overtakes you with a speed
difference of less than 15 mph (25 km/h),
-
th

e traffic must be flowing normally,
-
in t

he case of an overtaking manoeuvre,
if this is prolonged and the vehicle being
overtaken remains in the blind spot,
-
yo

u are driving on a straight or slightly
curved road,
-
yo

ur vehicle is not pulling a trailer, a
caravan... No alert will be given in the following situations:
-
in t

he presence of immobile objects
(parked vehicles, barriers, street lamps,
road signs...),
-

the s

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.

Under-inflation alertReinitialisation
Before reinitialising the system, ensure
that the pressures of the four tyres are
correct for the use of the vehicle and in
line with the recommendations on the
tyre pressure label.
the u

nder-inflation alert can only be
relied on if the reinitialisation of the
system has done with the pressures in
the four tyres correctly adjusted.
the u

nder-inflation detection system
does not give a warning if a pressure is
incorrect at the time of reinitialisation.
thi

s is given by fixed illumination of
this warning lamp, accompanied by
an audible signal and, depending on
equipment, the display of a message. It is necessary to reinitialise the system every
time one or more tyre pressures are adjusted,
and after changing one or more wheels.
A label attached to the middle pillar, driver's
side, gives a reminder of this.
