ON

The system corrects the trajectory on the side where the risk of line cr\
ossing is detected.
The driver's hands are on the steering wheel.
ON




"Hold the steering
wheel" or "Stay in lane" (depending on version) If, while correcting the trajectory, the system determines that the correction will not be
enough and that a solid line will be crossed: the driver is warned that \
they must provide
additional trajectory adjustment.
If the steering wheel is not held properly, an audible warning sounds, accompanied by
a message, until the trajectory correction is completed or the driver ha\
s grasped the
steering wheel correctly.
The duration of audible warnings will increase if multiple corrections a\
re performed
in quick succession. The warning will become continuous, persisting until the driver
responds.
Operating limits
The system goes into standby automatically in
the following cases:
–

ESC deactivated or operation triggered.
–


Speed below 40 mph (65
km/h) or greater
than 112 mph (180
km/h).
–

Electrical connection to a trailer
.
–

Use of a"space-saver" spare wheel detected
(as detection is not immediate, deactivation of
the system is recommended).
–


Dynamic driving style detected, pressure on
the brake or accelerator pedal.
–


Driving over lane markings.
–


Activation
of the direction indicators.
–

Crossing the inside line on a bend.
–


Driving on a tight bend.
– Inactivity by the driver detected during
correction.
–

Narrow lane detected.
The following situations may interfere with the operation of the system or
prevent it from working:
–

Insufficient contrast between the road
surface and the verge or hard shoulder
(e.g.

shade).
–

Lane markings worn, hidden (snow
, mud)
or multiple (roadworks, etc.),
–

Close proximity to the vehicle in front (lane
markings may not be detected).
–


Roads that are narrow
, winding.
Risk of undesirable operation
The system should be deactivated in the
following situations:
–
When changing a wheel or working near a
wheel.
–


T
owing or with a bicycle carrier on a towing
device, especially with trailer not plugged in or
not approved.
–

Road in poor condition, unstable or with very
poor grip (risk of aquaplaning, snow

, ice).
–

Adverse weather conditions.
–


Driving on racing circuits.
–


Driving on a rolling road.
Deactivation/Activation
By default, the system is automatically activated
at every engine start.

Visual assistance

This supplements the audible signal, without
taking account of the vehicle's trajectory, by
displaying bars on the screen whose location
represents the distance between the obstacle
and the vehicle (white: more distant, orange:
close, red: very close).
When the obstacle is very close, the "Danger"
symbol is displayed on the screen.
Front parking sensors
Supplementing the rear parking sensors, the
front parking sensors are triggered when an
obstacle is detected in front and the speed of the
vehicle is below 6 mph (10 km/h).
Front parking sensor operation is suspended if
the vehicle stops for more than three seconds in
forward gear, if an obstacle is no longer detected
or the vehicle speed exceeds 6
mph (10 km/h).
The sound emitted by the speaker (front or rear) locates the obstacle relative to
the vehicle, whether in front of or behind it on
its path.
Deactivation/Activation
(Depending on country of sale)
Depending on version, using the centre console
button and/or in the ADAS application on the
touch screen.




â–º Press this button to activate or deactivate the
function.
The indicator lamp is lit when the function is
deactivated.
It is configured in the ADAS touch screen
application.
If the function is deactivated, this indicator
lamp lights up on the instrument panel.
The system status is saved when the ignition is
switched off.


The rear parking sensors are deactivated automatically if a trailer or bicycle carrier
is connected to a towing device installed in
accordance with the Manufacturer's
recommendations.
In this case, the outline of a trailer is displayed
at the rear of the image of the vehicle.
When starting the vehicle, the graphic
and audible aids are only available after
the touch screen has started up.
Operating limits
If the boot is heavily loaded, the vehicle may tilt,
affecting distance measurements.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction when
changing into reverse gear, these
warning lamps light up on the instrument panel,
accompanied by the display of a message and
an audible signal (short beep).
In the event of a malfunction, this
indicator lamp flashes for approximately
10 seconds when reverse gear is engaged.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.

6Operating principle



When an approaching obstacle is detected, the
symbol 1 or 2 flashes on the touch screen, in the
Parking sensors view or in the various contextual
views of the Visiopark 1 or Visiopark 2 functions
(depending on version).
The symbol is complemented by an audible
signal when the vehicle is reversing.
An obstacle is approaching in the blind spot on the rear right-hand/
left-hand side or on both sides of the vehicle.
In the event of a malfunction of these functions
or of the touch screen, or if the driver deactivates
the views from these functions on the touch
screen, detection of an approaching obstacle
is still indicated by the audible signal when the
vehicle is reversing.
Activation/Deactivation
It is configured in the ADAS touch screen
application.
The system's status is saved when the ignition is
switched off.
Operating limits
The system may not work in the following cases:
– T owing a trailer.
–

Using a bicycle carrier on a towing device.
–


Extreme temperature changes.
–


If the rear bumper is damaged.
–


Accumulation or
projection of external
elements (e.g.
mud, ice, snow), application of
stickers.
It is possible that warnings are not given,
are given too late or seem unjustified.
Consequently, always stay in control of your
vehicle and be prepared to react at any time
to avoid an accident.
If the rear bumper is to be repainted,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop; certain types of paint could
interfere with the operation of the radars.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction when
engaging reverse gear, during reversing
or if the driver attempts to activate the system,
this warning lamp lights up on the instrument panel, accompanied by the display of a message
and an audible signal.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.

Towing device
Load distribution
â–º Distribute the load in the trailer so that the
heaviest items are as close as possible to the
axle, and the nose weight approaches the
maximum permitted without exceeding it.
Air density decreases with altitude, thus reducing
engine performance.
The maximum towable load
must be reduced by 10% per 1,000
metres of
altitude.
Use genuine towing devices and wiring
harnesses approved by PEUGEOT. We
recommend having them fitted by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
If not fitted by a PEUGEOT dealer, they must
still be fitted in accordance with the vehicle
manufacturer's instructions.
Important: if the vehicle has a motorised
tailgate and Hands-Free Tailgate Access
function, and a towing device has been fitted
outside the PEUGEOT dealer network, it
is essential to visit a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualified workshop to have the detection
system recalibrated
- risk of malfunction of the
Hands-Free Tailgate Access function.
Certain driving or manoeuvring aid functions
are automatically deactivated while an
approved towing system is in use.
For more information about driving with a
towing device fitted to a trailer and associated
with the Trailer stability assist, refer to the
corresponding section.
Comply with the maximum authorised
towable weight, as indicated on your
vehicle's registration certificate, on the
manufacturer's label and in the Technical
data section of this guide.

162
Practical information
If using accessories attached to the
towing device (e.g. bicycle carriers, tow
boxes):
–

Comply with the maximum authorised nose
weight.
–


Do not transport more than 4 conventional
bicycles or 2 electric bicycles.
When loading bicycles onto a bicycle carrier
on a towball, be sure to place the heaviest
bicycles as close as possible to the vehicle.
Observe the legislation in force in the
country where you are driving.
Vehicle equipped with motorised
tailgate with hands-free function
(Hands-Free Tailgate Access)
To avoid unintentionally opening the
motorised tailgate when operating the towing
device:
–

Deactivate this function in advance in the
vehicle's configuration application.
–


Or remove the electronic key from the
recognition zone, with the tailgate closed.
