The loss of pressure detected does not
always cause visible bulging of the tyre.
Do not satisfy yourself with just a visual
check. The alert is maintained until the system
is reinitialised.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 under-inflation alert can only
be relied on if the reinitialisation of
the system has been done with the
pressures in the four tyres correctly
adjusted.
The under-inflation detection system
does not give a warning if a pressure is
incorrect at the time of reinitialisation.

Operating fault
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.In the event of a fault with the cruise
control, you are alerted by the
illumination of this warning lamp
and the display of a message in the
instrument panel, accompanied by an
audible signal.
The cruise control operates by day and at
night, in fog or moderate rainfall.
However, it is strongly recommended that
you always keep a safe distance from
vehicles ahead, according to the driving
conditions, the weather and the road
sur face.
Use the cruise control only where the
driving conditions allow running at a
constant speed and at an adequate safe
distance.
Do not use the cruise control in urban
areas, heavy traffic, on winding or steep
roads or on slippery or flooded sur faces.
In certain circumstances, it may not
be possible for the speed setting to be
maintained or even attained: loaded
vehicle, ascending a steep hill, ... The system is not intended for driving in the
following situations:
-

t

he front end of the vehicle has been
modified (addition of driving lamps),
-

d

riving on a racing circuit,
-

r

unning on a rolling road,
-
u
se of snow chains or non-slip covers.
As a safety measure, do not use the
system if the brake lamps are faulty.
Do not use the system if the front
bumper is damaged.
The operation of the radar, located in the
front bumper, may be disturbed in certain
weather conditions, for example: with
accumulations of snow, ice, mud, ...
Clean the front bumper, removing the snow,
mud, ... The use of mats not approved by
PEUGEOT may inter fere with the operation
of the cruise control.
To avoid any risk of jamming the pedals:
-

e

nsure that mats are secured correctly,
-

n

ever fit one mat on top of another.

Depending on the degree of risk of collision
detected by the system and the alert threshold
chosen by the driver, different levels of alert can be
triggered and displayed in the instrument panel.
Because of limits in the operation of the
system, it is possible that warnings are
not given, are given too late or seem
unjustified.
Consequently, the driver must always
remain attentive and able to react at any
time to avoid an accident.
Distance alert
Level 1: visual alert only, signalling
to you that the vehicle in front is very
close.
The message " Vehicle close" is
displayed.
Limits of operation
In the following cases, it is recommended
that the system be deactivated in the vehicle
configuration menu:
-

w
hen towing a trailer or caravan,
-

w
hen carrying long objects on roof bars or
a roof rack,
-

b
efore using an automatic car wash, with
the engine running,
-

b
efore placing the vehicle on a rolling road
in a workshop,
-

w
hen the vehicle is being towed, with the
engine running,
-

w
hen a "space-saver" type spare wheel is
fitted (depending on version),
-

f
ollowing impact damage to the windscreen
close to the detection camera,
-

i
f the front bumper has been damaged,
-

i
f the brake lamps are not working. This level of alert is based on the inter-vehicle
time between your vehicle and the vehicle in
front.
Level 2: visual and audible alert,
warning you that a collision is
imminent.
The message " Brake!" is displayed.
This level of alert is based on the time before
collision. It takes account of the vehicle
dynamics, the speed of your vehicle and the
one in front, the environmental conditions, the
operation of the vehicle (cornering, pedals
pressed, etc.) to trigger the alert at the best
moment. Where the speed of your vehicle is too
high 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.
Important
: the level 1 alert is never
displayed if the " Close" threshold has
been selected.

Active Safety Brake
This function, also called automatic emergency
braking, aims to reduce the speed of impact or
avoid a frontal collision by your vehicle where
the driver fails to react.
Using a radar and a camera, this function acts
on the vehicle's braking system.If the radar and the camera have
confirmed the presence of a vehicle
or a pedestrian, this warning lamp
flashes once the function is acting on
the vehicle's brakes.
Important
: if operation of the
automatic emergency braking is
triggered, you should take back
control of your vehicle and brake
with the pedal to add to or finish the
automatic braking action.
The driver can take back control of the vehicle
at any time by sharply turning the steering
wheel and/or pressing the accelerator pedal. Operation of the function may be felt by
slight vibration in the brake pedal.
If the vehicle comes to a complete stop,
the automatic braking is maintained for
1 to 2 seconds.
With a manual gearbox, in the event
of the automatic emergency braking
bringing the vehicle to a complete stop,
the engine may stall.
With an automatic gearbox, in the event
of the automatic emergency braking
bringing the vehicle to a complete stop,
keep the brake pedal pressed to stop
the vehicle moving off again.
The point at which braking is triggered
may be adjusted according to the
reaction from the driver, such as
movement of the steering wheel or
pressing the accelerator pedal.

Deactivation / ActivationOperating fault
In the event of a fault, you are alerted
by the illumination of this warning
lamp, accompanied by the display of
a message and an audible signal.
Clean the windscreen regularly,
particularly the area in front of the
camera.
Do not allow snow to accumulate on
the bonnet or roof of the vehicle as this
could mask the camera's view.
Clean the front bumper, removing mud,
snow, ...
If the front bumper is to be repainted,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop. Certain types of
paint could inter fere with the operation
of the radar.
Check that the sensors (camera and radar) are
not covered by dirt, mud, frost, snow...
If the problem persists, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop to have the
system checked.
By default, the system is automatically
activated at every engine start.
The system can be deactivated or activated in
the vehicle settings menu in the screen.
Deactivation of the system is
signalled by the illumination of this
indicator lamp, accompanied by the
display of a message. There may be interference in the
operation of the camera or it may not
work at all in the following situations:
-

p
oor visibility (inadequate street
lighting, falling snow, heavy rain,
dense fog, ...),
-

d
azzle (headlamps of an
approaching vehicle on the other
side of the road, low sun, reflection
on a wet road, leaving a tunnel,
alternating between light and
shade, ...),
-

Fatigue detection system
It is recommended that you take a break as soon as you feel tired or at least every two hours.
Depending on version, the function either has the "Driving time warning" only, or this combined with the "Fatigue detection system".
Driving time warning
The system triggers an alert once it detects that
the driver has not taken a break after two hours
of driving at a speed above 40 mph (65 km/h).
This alert takes the form of the display of a
message encouraging you 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 cannot in any
circumstances replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
Do not take the wheel if you are tired.
As soon as the speed of the vehicle
drops below 40 mph (65 km/h), the
system goes into standby.
The driving time is counted again once
the speed is above 40 mph (65 km/h).
Activation / Deactivation
The system is activated or deactivated via the
vehicle configuration menu.
For more information on the menu, refer to the
part covering your screen in the "Dashboard
instruments" section.
The state of the system stays in memory when
the ignition is switched off.The system resets itself if one of the following
conditions is met:
-

e
ngine running, the vehicle has been
stationary for more than 15 minutes,
-

t
he ignition has been switched off for a
few


minutes,
-

t
he driver's seat belt is unfastened and
their door is open.

3008-2_en_Chap06_conduite_ed01-2016
After three first level alerts, the system triggers
a new alert with the message "Take a break!",
accompanied by a more pronounced audible
signal.
In certain driving conditions (poor road
sur face or strong winds), the system
may give alerts independent of the
driver's level of vigilance. The following situations may inter fere
with the operation of the system or
prevent it working:
-
p

oor visibility (inadequate lighting
of the roadway, falling snow, heavy
rain, dense fog, ...),
-
d
azzle (headlamps of an oncoming
vehicle, low sun, reflections on
a damp road, leaving a tunnel,
alternating shade and light, ...),
-
w
indscreen area located in front
of the camera: dirty, misted, frost-
covered, snow-covered, damaged
or covered by a sticker,
-
l
ane markings absent, worn,
masked (snow, mud) or multiple
(roadworks, ...),
-
c
lose to the vehicle ahead (lane
markings not detected),
- r oads that are narrow, winding, ...
Once the system considers that the behaviour
of the vehicle suggests a certain level of fatigue
or inattention by the driver, it triggers the first
level of alert.
The driver is then alerted by the message
"
Ta k e c a r e ! ", accompanied by an audible
signal.
Fatigue detection system
Depending on version, the "Driving time
warning" may be combined with the "Fatigue
detection system".
Using a camera placed at the top of the
windscreen, the system assesses the driver's
level of vigilance by identifying variations in
trajectory compared to the lane markings.
This system is particularly suited to fast roads
(speed higher than 40 mph (65 km/h))

Lane Departure Warning System
Activation / Deactivation
Select the "Driving assistance " tab, then
" Lane departure detection assistance. ".
System which, using a camera which
recognises solid or broken lines, detects the
involuntary crossing of longitudinal traffic lane
markings on the ground.
To provide safe driving, the camera analyses
the image then, if the driver's attention drops
and the speed is higher than 37 mph (60 km/h),
triggers a warning if there is an unexpected
change of direction.
This system is particularly useful on motor ways
and main roads.
This system is a driving aid that cannot,
in any circumstances, replace the need
for vigilance on the part of the driver. Activation and deactivation of the
function is done via the Driving

menu in the touch screen.
The status of the system remains in memory
when the ignition is switched off.
Detection
If an unexpected change of direction
is detected, you are alerted by
this warning lamp flashing in the
instrument panel and an audible
signal.
No warning is transmitted while the direction
indicator is active and for approximately
20

seconds after the direction indicator is
switched off.
Operating fault
In the event of a fault, this warning
lamp comes on in the instrument
panel, accompanied by the display
of a message and an audible signal.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
The detection may be impeded:
-

i

f the markings on the ground are
worn,
-

i

f there is little contrast between the
markings on the ground and the
road surface,
-

i

f the windscreen is dirty,
-

i

n certain weather conditions: fog,
heavy rain, snow, shade, bright
sunlight or direct exposure to the
sun (low sun, leaving a tunnel, ...).

Assisted Lane Departure Warning System
Using a camera placed at the top of the windscreen to identify lane markings on the ground, this system corrects the trajectory of the vehicle while
alerting the driver if it detects a risk of involuntary crossing of a line.
This system is particularly useful on motor ways and main roads.
Conditions for operation
The speed of the vehicle must be between 40
and 112 mph (65 and 180 km/h).
The carriageway must have at least one lane
marking (solid or broken) on the ground.
The driver must hold the wheel with both
hands.
The change of trajectory is not accompanied by
operation of the direction indicators.
The ESC system must be activated.This system is a driving aid which
cannot, in any circumstances, replace
the need for vigilance on the part of the
driver.
The driver remains responsible for the
vehicle in all circumstances. The system
helps the driver only when there is a risk
of the vehicle involuntarily wandering
from the lane it is being driven on.
It does not manage the safe driving
distance, the speed of the vehicle or the
brakes.
The driver must hold the steering wheel
in a way that allows control to be taken
back in circumstances where the system
is not able to intervene (where there are
no lane markings, for example).
It is necessary to observe the driving
regulations and take a break every
two
hours.
