Temporarily exceeding the
programmed speed
F If you want to temporarily exceed the programmed limit speed, press firmly on
the accelerator pedal, going beyond the
point of resistance .
The speed limiter is deactivated temporarily
and the displayed programmed speed flashes.
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.
When the limit speed is exceeded but this is not
due to action by the driver, there is an audible
signal to complete the alert.
Once the speed of the vehicle returns to
the programmed setting, the speed limiter
functions again: the display of the programmed
speed setting becomes steady again.
Switching off
F Turn the thumbwheel 1 to the " 0" position:
the display of information on the speed
limiter disappears.

driving conditions allow running at a
constant speed and at an adequate safe
distance.
Do not activate the cruise control in urban
areas, in heavy traffic, on winding or steep
roads, on slippery or flooded roads, or in
conditions of poor visibility (heavy rain,
fog, falling snow, etc.).
In some circumstances, it may not be
possible to maintain or reach the cruise
speed set: towing, vehicle heavily loaded,
steep climb. 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:

It is possible that warnings are not given,
are given too late or seem unjustified.
Consequently, always stay alert and be
prepared to react at any time to avoid an
accident.
Distance alert
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.Level 1 (orange)
: visual alert only,
signalling to you that the vehicle in
front is very close.
The message " Vehicle close" is
displayed.
This level of alert is based on the inter-vehicle
time between your vehicle and the vehicle in
front.
Level 2 (red) : 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: alert level 1 is never
displayed when the " Close" trigger
threshold has been selected.

Modifying the alert trigger
threshold
This threshold determines how you wish to be
warned of the presence of a vehicle moving
or stationary in front of you, or a pedestrian
present in your traffic lane.
The current threshold can be modified via the
vehicle configuration menu.
You can select one of three predefined
thresholds:
-
"Distant ",
-
"Normal ",
-
"Close ".
The last threshold selected is kept in memory
when the ignition is switched off.
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
Driving

191
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.
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 camera and, depending on the version,
radar, this function acts on the vehicle's braking
system.
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.
The point at which braking is triggered
may be adjusted depending on the driving
actions of the driver, such as movement
of the steering wheel or actions at 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
automatic emergency braking until the
vehicle comes to a complete stop, the
engine may stall.
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.
Specific conditions for
operation
The vehicle's speed must be between 3 mph
a nd 53 mph (5 km/h and 85 km/h) (versions
with camera alone) or 87
mph (140 km/h)
(versions with camera and radar) when a
moving vehicle is detected.
The vehicle's speed must not exceed 50
mph
(80

k
m/h) when a stationary vehicle is detected.
The vehicle's speed must not exceed 37
mph
(60
km/h) when a pedestrian is detected.
The ESC system must not be defective.
The DSC system must not be deactivated.
All passenger seat belts must be fastened.
Driving at a steady speed on roads with few
bends is required.
After an impact, the function automatically
stops operating. Consult a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop to have the
system checked.
Deactivation / Activation
By default, the system is automatically
activated at every engine start.
The system can be deactivated or activated via
the vehicle settings menu.
6
Driving

192
Deactivation of the system is
signalled by the illumination of this
indicator lamp, accompanied by the
display of a message.
The camera may be disrupted or not
work in the following situations:
-

p

oor visibility (inadequate street
lighting, 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.),
-

c

amera or radar obstructed (mud,
frost, snow, condensation, etc.).
On versions with camera alone, this
message indicates to you that the
camera is obstructed: " Driving aids
camera: visibility limited, see user
guide ".
In these situations, detection
performance may be reduced. 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.
Clean the front bumper, especially
around the radar, removing mud, snow,
etc.
If the front bumper is to be repainted or
touched up, contact a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop. Certain types of
paint could inter fere with the operation of
the radar.
The system is automatically deactivated
after the use of the "space-saver" type
spare wheel is detected, or if a fault with
the side brake lamps is detected.Malfunction
In the event of a fault with the
system, you are alerted by the
illumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by the display of a
message and an audible signal.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked.
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 "Driver inattention alert".
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.
Activation / Deactivation
The system is activated or deactivated via the
vehicle configuration menu.
For more information on the menu, refer
to the section covering your screen in the
"Instruments" section.
Driving

195
The detection may be impeded:
- i f the markings on the road are worn,
-

i
f there is little contrast between the
markings on the road and the road
sur face,
-

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, etc.).
Active 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 must not be
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 should remain in control of 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
with both hands in a way that allows
control to be taken back 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. 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.
Operation
Once the system identifies a risk of the vehicle
involuntarily crossing one of the lane markings
detected, it makes the correction to the
trajectory required to return the vehicle to its
initial path.
The driver will then notice a turning movement
of the steering wheel.
6
Driving

196
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
To benefit from all necessary information on
the instrument panel, you must previously
select the "DRIVING" display mode. 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 Monitoring
System" activated, if the driver starts changing
lane 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 Monitoring System, refer to the
corresponding section. The table below describes the alerts and
messages displayed depending on the driving
situation.
The display of these alerts is not sequential.
