Memorising the speed
On detection of a sign offering a new speed
limit, the system displays the value and MEM
flashes for a few seconds to offer to make it a
new speed setting.
If there is a difference of less than 6
mph
(10
km/h) between the speed setting and
the speed displayed by the Speed Limit
recognition and recommendation, the
MEM symbol is not displayed.

This system prevents the vehicle
from exceeding the speed
programmed by the driver.
The speed limiter is switched on manually.
The minimum programmed speed is 19
mph
(30


km/h).
The programmed speed value remains in the
system memory when the ignition is switched
of f.
The speed limiter is a driving aid that
cannot, in any circumstances, replace the
need to obser ve speed limits or the need
for vigilance on the part of the driver.

The speed limiter is deactivated temporarily and
the displayed programmed speed flashes.
Simply release the accelerator pedal to return to
the programmed speed.
On a steep descent or in the event of
sharp acceleration, the speed limiter will
not be able to prevent the vehicle from
exceeding the programmed speed.
You may have to brake to control the speed of
your vehicle.
When the speed limit is exceeded but this is not
due to action by the driver, an audible signal
supplements the alert.
Once the vehicle slows down to the required
setting, the speed limiter is active again: the
speed setting display is fixed once more.
Switching off
F Turn the thumbwheel 1 to the " 0" position:
the display of information on the speed
limiter disappears.
Malfunction
The use of mats not approved by
PEUGEOT may inter fere with the
operation of the speed limiter.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the pedals:
-

e
nsure that the mat is positioned
c o r r e c t l y,
-

n
ever fit one mat on top of another.
Flashing dashes indicate a fault with the speed
limiter.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Cruise control
The system automatically maintains
the vehicle’s cruising speed at a
setting programmed by the driver,
without using the accelerator pedal.
The cruise control is switched on manually.
It requires a minimum vehicle speed of 25
mph
(40


km/h).
With a manual gearbox, it requires the
engagement of third gear or higher.
With an automatic gearbox, it requires the
engagement of the selector in mode D or of
second or higher gear in mode M .Speed regulation remains active after
changing gear on vehicles fitted with a
manual gearbox and Stop & Start.
The operation of the cruise control can be
interrupted (pause):
-
b
y pressing control 4 or by pressing the
brake pedal,
-
a
utomatically, if operation of the dynamic
stability control system is triggered.
Switching off the ignition cancels any
programmed speed setting.
The cruise control system is a driving aid
that cannot, in any circumstances, replace
the need to obser ve speed limits, nor the
need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
As a safety measure, you are advised to
keep your feet near the pedals at all times.

Adaptive cruise control
This system provides the following
functions:
-
A
utomatically maintains the vehicle
at the speed set by the driver.
-

A
utomatic adjustment of the
distance between your vehicle and
the one in front.
With the EAT8 automatic gearbox or with the
BlueHDi 150 S&S EAT6 engine, automatic
adjustment can cause your vehicle to come to a
complete stop.
It manages the acceleration and deceleration
of the vehicle by automatically acting on the
engine and the braking system.
Principle of operation
The system automatically adapts the speed of
your vehicle to that of the vehicle in front, to
maintain a constant distance.
If the vehicle in front is driving more slowly, the
system slows, or even stops your vehicle (with
the EAT8 automatic gearbox or the BlueHDi
150 S&S EAT6 engine), using engine braking
and the braking system.
If the vehicle in front accelerates or changes
lane, the cruise control progressively
accelerates your vehicle to return to the
programmed speed.
If the driver operates a direction indicator to
overtake a slower vehicle, the cruise control
allows your vehicle to temporarily approach
the vehicle in front to assist the overtaking
manoeuvre, though never exceeding the
programmed speed.
The brake lamps illuminate as soon as
the braking system is activated with
deceleration of the vehicle. This system is a driving aid that cannot,
in any circumstances, replace the need to
obser ve speed limits and safety distances,
nor the need for vigilance on the part of
the driver.
Some vehicles present on the road may
not be properly seen or may be poorly
interpreted by the camera and/or radar
(e.g. a lorry), which may lead to a poor
assessment of the distances and lead to
the vehicle inappropriately accelerating or
braking.
The driver must be ready at all times
to retake control of their vehicle by
permanently holding both hands on the
steering wheel and keeping their feet near
the brake and accelerator pedals.
Steering mounted control
1.
Select cruise control mode.
Primarily designed for driving on main
roads and motor ways, this system only
works on moving vehicles
, driving in the
same direction as your vehicle.
To do so, it has a radar located in the front
b u m p e r.
Driving

148
Level 2 (red): visual and audible
alert, warning you that a collision is
imminent.
The message " Brake!" is displayed.
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 directly.
Important: alert level 1 is never displayed
for a stationary obstacle or when the
" Close " trigger threshold has been
selected.
Intelligent emergency
braking assistance
If the driver brakes, but not sufficiently to avoid
a collision, this system will supplement the
braking, within the limits of the laws of physics.
This assistance will only be provided if you
press the brake pedal.
Active Safety Brake
Operation
- The vehicle's speed does not exceed 50 mph
(80 km/h) when a stationary vehicle is
detected.
-

T
he vehicle's speed must be between 6 mph
and 87
mph (10 km/h and 140 km/h) when a
moving vehicle is detected.
If the camera and/or radar have
confirmed the presence of a vehicle
or a pedestrian, this warning lamp
flashes once the function is acting
on the vehicle's brakes.
With an automatic gearbox, in the event of
automatic emergency braking until the vehicle
comes to a complete stop, keep the brake
pedal pressed down to prevent the vehicle from
starting off again.
With a manual gearbox, in the event of
automatic emergency braking until the vehicle
comes to a complete stop, the engine may stall.
The driver can maintain 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.
This function, also called automatic emergency
braking, inter venes following the alert if the
driver does not react quickly enough and does
not operate the vehicle's brakes.
It aims to reduce the speed of impact or avoid a
frontal collision by your vehicle where the driver
fails to react.
Level 1 (orange)
: visual alert only,
signalling to you that the vehicle in
front is very close.
The message " Vehicle close" is
displayed.
The system operates under the following
conditions:
-

T
he vehicle's speed does not exceed 37 mph
(60
km/h) when a pedestrian is detected.
Driving

150
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 interfere with
the operation of the system or prevent it
working:
-

p
oor visibility (inadequate lighting of
the roadway, falling snow, heavy rain,
dense fog, etc.),
-

d
azzle (headlamps of an oncoming
vehicle, low sun, reflections on a damp
road, leaving a tunnel, alternating
shade and light, etc.),
-

w
indscreen area located in front of the
camera: dirty, misted up, frost-covered,
snow-covered, damaged or covered by
a s t i c ke r,
-
l

ane markings absent, worn, hidden
(snow, mud) or multiple (roadworks,
e t c .),
-

c
lose to the vehicle ahead (lane
markings not detected),
-

r
oads that are narrow, winding, etc. Clean the windscreen regularly,
particularly the area in front of the camera.
The internal sur face of the windscreen can
also become misted around the camera.
In humid and cold weather, demist the
windscreen regularly.
Do not allow snow to accumulate on the
bonnet or roof of the vehicle as this could
conceal the detection camera.
Active Lane Keeping
Assistance
Using a camera located at the top of the
windscreen to identify lane markings on the
ground, the 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
mph and 112 mph (65 km/h and 180 km/h).
The driver must hold the steering wheel with both
hands.
The change of trajectory must not be
accompanied by operation of the direction
indicators.
The ESC system must be activated and fault-free.
This system is a driving aid that cannot,
in any circumstances, replace the
driver’s own vigilance. The driver must
remain in control of the vehicle under 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
in. It does not manage the safe driving
distance, the speed of the vehicle or the
brakes.
The driver must hold the steering wheel
with both hands in a way that allows
control to be maintained in circumstances
where the system is not able to inter vene
(if lane markings disappear, for example).
It is necessary to obser ve the driving
regulations and take a break every two
hours.
Driving

151
Operation
Once the system identifies a risk of the vehicle
involuntarily crossing one of the lane markings
detected on the ground or a lane limit (e.g.
grass border), it makes the correction to the
trajectory necessary to return the vehicle to its
initial path.
The driver will notice a turning movement of the
steering wheel.This warning lamp flashes during
trajectory correction.
If the driver wishes to maintain the
trajectory of the vehicle, they can prevent
the correction by keeping a firm grip on
the wheel (during an avoiding manoeuvre,
for example).
The correction is interrupted if the
direction indicators are operated.
If the system detects that the driver is not
holding the wheel firmly enough during
an automatic correction of trajectory,
it interrupts the correction. An alert is
triggered to encourage the driver to take
back control of the vehicle.
Driving situations and
associated alerts
The table below describes the alerts and
messages displayed depending on the driving
situation.
The display of these alerts is not sequential.
The instrument panel display screen "Driving
aids" tab must have been selected first.
While the direction indicators are on and for
a few seconds after switching them off, the
system considers that any change of trajectory
is voluntary and no correction is triggered
during this period.
However, with the Blind Spot Detection
activated, if the driver starts changing lanes
and another vehicle is detected in the vehicle's
blind spot, the system will correct the trajectory
of the vehicle even though the direction
indicators are on.
For more information on the Blind Spot
Detection , refer to the corresponding section.

AUTO mode is activated by default.
In this mode, the system chooses the best view
to display (standard or zoom) according to the
information from the parking sensors.
You can change the type of view at any time
during a manoeuvre.
The state of the system is not kept in memory
when the ignition is switched off.Principle of operation
Using the rear camera, the vehicle's
surroundings are recorded during manoeuvres
at low speed.
An image from above your vehicle in its close
surroundings is created in real time, as the
vehicle manoeuvre progresses.
This representation facilitates the alignment of
your vehicle when parking and allows obstacles
close to the vehicle to be seen.
This image is automatically deleted if the
vehicle remains stationary for too long.
This system is a visual aid that cannot in
any circumstances replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver. The images provided by the camera may
be distorted by the relief.
In the presence of areas in shade, or in
conditions of bright sunlight or inadequate
lighting, the image may be darkened and
with lower contrast.

This mode is activated by default.
Using sensors in the rear bumper, the
automatic view changes from a rear view
(standard) to a view from above (zoom), as an
obstacle is approached at the level of the red
line (less than 30
cm) during a manoeuvre.The blue lines 1 represent the width of your
vehicle, with the mirrors unfolded; the direction
changes depending on the position of the
steering wheel.

m and 2 m, respectively.
This view is available with AUTO mode or in the
view selection menu.
The area behind the vehicle is displayed on the
screen. The camera records the vehicle's surroundings
during the manoeuvre in order to create a
view from above the rear of the vehicle in its
near surroundings, allowing the vehicle to be
manoeuvred around obstacles nearby.
This view is available with AUTO mode or in the
view selection menu.

Obstacles may appear further away than
they actually are in reality.
It is important to check the sides of the
vehicle during the manoeuvre, using the
mirrors.
The rear parking sensors also provide
information on the vehicle's surroundings.
180° viewRecommendations on care
In bad or wintry weather, ensure that the
sensors and camera are not covered with mud,
ice or snow.
Check the cleanliness of the camera lens
regularly.
If necessary, clean the camera with a soft, dry
cloth.
When washing your vehicle at high pressure,
direct the lance at least 30
cm away from the
camera and parking sensors.
The 180° view facilitates reversing out of a
parking bay, making it possible to see the
approach of vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists.
This view is not recommended for carrying out
a complete manoeuvre. It consists of 3 areas: left A
, centre B and
right C .
This view is available only from the view
selection menu.
Park Assist
This system provides active assistance with
parking: it detects a parking space then
operates the steering system to park in this
space.
With a manual gearbox , the driver manages
the accelerator, brakes, gears and clutch.
With an automatic gearbox (EAT6/EAT8) , the
driver manages the accelerator, brakes and
gears. During phases of entry into and exit from a
parking space, the system provides visual
and audible information to the driver in order
to make the manoeuvres safe. It may be
necessary to move for wards and backwards
more than once.
The driver can take control at any time by
gripping the steering wheel.
This manoeuvring assistance system
cannot, in any circumstances, replace the
need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
The driver must remain in control of their
vehicle ensuring that the space remains
clear throughout the manoeuvre.
In some circumstances, the sensors may
not detect small obstacles located in their
blind spots.
The Park Assist system cannot work with
the engine off.

A.Parallel parking.
B. Exit from a parallel parking space.
C. Bay parking.
During manoeuvring phases, the steering
wheel per forms rapid turns: do not hold
the steering wheel, do not put your hands
between the spokes of the steering wheel.
Watch out for any object that could block
the manoeuvre (loose clothing, scar ves,
ties, etc.) - injury risk!
When the Park Assist is active, it prevents
the Stop & Start going into STOP mode.
In STOP mode, activating Park Assist
restarts the engine. The Park Assist system takes control
of the assistance for a maximum of
4
manoeuvre cycles. The function is
deactivated after these 4 cycles. If you
think that your vehicle is not positioned
correctly, you should then take control of
the steering to carry out the manoeuvre.
The sequence of manoeuvres and the
driving instructions are displayed on the
touch screen.
You should always check the surroundings
of your vehicle before starting a
manoeuvre. The parking sensors function is
not available during parking space
measurement. It intervenes later when
manoeuvring to warn you that your vehicle
is approaching an obstacle: the audible
signal becomes continuous when the
obstacle is less than thirty centimetres
away.
If you have deactivated the parking
sensors, they are automatically
reactivated during assisted parking
manoeuvres.
Activation of Park Assist deactivates the
Blind Spot Detection.
