Driving
audible signal and, depending on equipment, the
display of a message.
►
Reduce speed immediately
, avoid excessive
steering movements and avoid sudden braking.
►

Stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do
so.
The loss of pressure detected may not always cause visible deformation of the
tyre.
Do not rely on just a visual check.
►

Using a compressor
, such as the one in
the temporary puncture repair kit, check the
pressures of all four tyres when cold.
►

If it is not possible to carry out this check
immediately

, drive carefully at reduced speed.
►

In the event of a puncture, use the
temporary puncture repair kit or the spare wheel
(depending on equipment).
Driving too slowly may not ensure
optimum monitoring.
The alert is not immediately triggered in the
event of a sudden loss of pressure or tyre
blow-out. This is because analysis of the
values read by the wheel's speed sensors
can take several minutes.
The alert may be delayed at speeds below
25 mph (40 km/h), or when adopting a sporty
driving mode.
The alert is kept active until the system is reinitialised.
Reinitialisation
► The system must be reinitialised after any
adjustment to the pressure of one or more tyres,
and after changing one or more wheels.
Before reinitialising the system, make
sure that the pressures of the four tyres
are correct for the conditions of use of the
vehicle and conform to the values written on
the tyre pressure label.
Check the pressures of the four tyres before
performing the reinitialisation.
The system does not advise if a pressure is
incorrect at the time of reinitialisation.
With the vehicle stationary, the system
can be reinitialised in the
Settings>Vehicle touch screen application.
►

Then select
Safety > Tire Pressure Setup.
►

Press
YES to confirm.
The

reinitialisation is confirmed by the display of
a message and an audible signal.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction,
these warning lamps light up on
the instrument panel.
A message appears, accompanied by an audible
signal.
In this case, the tyre under-inflation monitoring
function is no longer performed.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Non-standard or 'space-saver' spare
wheel
The use of this type of spare wheel may
suspend tyre pressure monitoring.
In this case, the malfunction warning lamp
comes on and disappears once the wheel
has been replaced by one of uniform size (the
same as the others), the pressure readjusted
and the
reinitialisation carried out.
Driving and manoeuvring
aids - General
recommendations
Driving and manoeuvring aids cannot, in
any circumstances, replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
The driver must comply with the Highway
Code, must remain in control of the vehicle in
all circumstances and must be able to retake
control of it at all times. The driver must adapt
the speed to climatic conditions, traffic and
the state of the road.
It is the driver's responsibility to constantly
monitor traffic conditions, assess the distance
and relative speed of other vehicles, and
anticipate their manoeuvres before using the
direction indicator and changing lanes.
These systems do not make it possible to
exceed the laws of physics. CarM an uals 2 .c o m

105
Driving
6Driving aids
You should hold the steering wheel with
both hands, always use the door and interior
mirrors, always leave your feet close to the
pedals and take a break every 2 hours.
Manoeuvring aids
The driver must always check the
surroundings of the vehicle before and during
the whole manoeuvre, in particular using the
mirrors.
Radar(s)
The operation of the radar(s), along with
any associated functions, may be affected
by the accumulation of dirt (e.g.
mud, ice),
in poor weather conditions (e.g.
heavy rain,
snow), by the masking of the detection zone
with adhesive labels or other objects, or if the
bumpers are damaged.
If the front or 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 radar(s).
Take care not to cover the detection zones
on the front and rear bumpers with adhesive
labels or other objects; they may hamper
correct operation of the associated system.


Driving aids camera
This camera and its associated functions
may be impaired or not work if the windscreen
area in front of the camera is dirty, misty,
frosty, covered with snow, damaged or
masked by a sticker.
In humid and cold weather, demist the
windscreen regularly.
Poor visibility (e.g.
inadequate street lighting,
heavy rain, thick fog, snowfall), dazzle
(e.g.
headlamps of an oncoming vehicle, low
sun, reflections on a damp road, leaving a
tunnel, alternating shade and light) can also
impair detection performance.
In the event of a windscreen replacement,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to recalibrate the camera;
otherwise, the operation of the associated
driving aids may be disrupted.
Other cameras
The images from the camera(s)
displayed on the touch screen or on the
instrument panel may be distorted by the
terrain.
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.
Obstacles may appear further away than they
actually are.
Sensors
The operation of the sensors, as well as
any associated functions, may be disrupted
by noise pollution such as that emitted by
noisy vehicles and machinery (e.g. lorries,
pneumatic drills), by the accumulation of
snow or dead leaves on the road or in the
event of damaged bumpers and mirrors.
When reverse gear is engaged, an audible
signal (long beep) indicates that the sensors
may be dirty.
A front or rear impact to the vehicle can
upset the sensors’ settings, which is not
always detected by the system: distance
measurements may be distorted.
The sensors do not systematically detect
obstacles that are too low (pavements, studs)
or too thin (trees, posts, wire fences).
Certain obstacles located in the sensors’ blind
spots may not be detected or may no longer
be detected during the manoeuvre.
Certain materials (fabrics) absorb sound
waves: pedestrians may not be detected.
Maintenance
Clean the bumpers and door mirrors and
the field of vision of the cameras regularly. CarM an uals 2 .c o m

Navigation mapping should be regularly
updated in order to receive accurate
speed limit information from the system.
The units for the speed limit (mph or km/h) depend on the country you are
driving in.
This should be taken into account to ensure
you observe the speed limit.
For the system to work properly when
changing countries, the speed unit of the
instrument panel must match that of the
country you are driving in.
Automatic sign reading is a driving aid system and does not always display the
correct speed limits.
The speed limit signs present on the road
always take priority over those displayed by
the system.
The system is designed to detect signs that
conform to the Vienna Convention on road
signs.
Specific speed limits, such as those for
heavy goods vehicles, are not displayed.
The display of the speed limit on the
instrument panel is updated when passing
a speed limit sign intended for cars (light
vehicles).
Activation/Deactivation
By default, the system is automatically activated
at every engine start.
It is configured in the ADAS touch screen
application. CarM an uals 2 .c o m

Driving
6The steering wheel is equipped with a hands-on detection system to avoid
distraction on the part of the driver.
For more information on the Hands-on
detection, refer to the corresponding section.
The system cannot in any circumstances replace the need for vigilance on the part
of the driver. The driver remains responsible
for their driving by monitoring their
surroundings and keeping their hands on the
steering wheel.
The driver must act promptly if they believe
that the traffic conditions or the state of the
road surface require their intervention, by
moving the steering wheel to temporarily
suspend system operation.
Any intervention on the brake pedal or the
accelerator pedal that causes the adaptive
cruise control to be paused or suspended will
also cause the system to deactivate.

This system:
–
warns the driver that their vehicle is at risk of
collision with the preceding vehicle, a pedestrian
or a cyclist.
–

reduces the vehicle's speed to avoid a
collision or to limit its severity

.
Below a speed of 19 mph (30 km/h),
automatic emergency braking may slow
down the vehicle to a complete stop.
Otherwise, for versions with camera only
, the
speed may be reduced by a maximum of 16
mph (25

the thread.
The system also takes motorcyclists into account.
It may also react on animals. Animals
(especially animals smaller than 0.5
m)
and objects on the road are not necessarily
detected.
This system includes three functions:
–

Collision
Risk Alert.
–

Intelligent emergency braking assistance
(iEBA).
–


Active Safety Brake (automatic emergency
braking).


The vehicle has a multifunction camera located
at the top of the windscreen and, depending on
version, a radar located in the front bumper.
This system does not replace the need for driver vigilance.
This system is designed to assist the driver
and improve road safety.
It is the driver's responsibility to continuously
monitor traffic conditions in accordance with
applicable driving regulations.
As soon as the system detects a potential collision, it prepares the braking
circuit. This may cause a slight noise and a
slight sensation of deceleration.
Deactivation/Activation
By default, the system is automatically activated
at every engine start.
It is configured in the ADAS touch screen
application.
or
Direct access to the Shortcuts for driving aids .
Deactivation of the system is signalled by

6Active Safety Brake

This function, also called "automatic emergency
braking", intervenes after the acoustic alert if the
driver does not operate the brake pedal quickly
enough.
The system aims at reducing the speed of
impact or avoiding a collision if the driver fails to
react.
Below a speed of 19 mph (30 km/h),
automatic emergency braking may slow
down the vehicle to a complete stop.
Otherwise, for versions with camera only
, the
speed may be reduced by a maximum of 16
mph (25
km/h).
For versions with camera and radar, the
speed reduction may be extended to 31 mph
(50 km/h), if both sensors are able to detect
the thread.
Operation
The system operates subject to the following
conditions:
–

The vehicle's speed does not exceed 50 mph
(80

km/h), when a pedestrian or a cyclist is
detected.
–

The vehicle's speed does not exceed 50 mph
(80

km/h), when a stationary vehicle is detected.
–

The vehicle's speed is between 6 mph and
53 mph (10

km/h and 85 km/h) (versions with
camera only) or 87 mph (140 km/h) (versions
with camera and radar) when a moving vehicle
is detected.
This warning lamp flashes (for approximately 10 seconds) as soon as
the function applies the vehicle’s brakes.
During the flashing time, the function is not
available.
In the event of automatic emergency braking,
keep the brake pedal depressed, also after a
complete stop is reached, to prevent the vehicle
from rolling away.
The driver can override the automatic emergency braking at any time by
strongly turning the steering wheel (evasive
manoeuver) and/or by firmly pressing the
accelerator pedal.
The brake pedal may feel hard and vibrate slightly while the function is
operating.
If the vehicle comes to a complete stop,
automatic braking is maintained for 1 to
2

seconds.
Turning scenarios
Crossing road with another vehicle

The system may operate when the vehicle is
turning and detects another vehicle, on the
adjacent lane, approaching from the opposite
direction if:
–
The corresponding direction indicator is
activated.
–


Then the vehicle is about to cross the path of
another vehicle.
–


The vehicle speed is between 3 and 12
mph
(5 and 20
km/h).
–

A
collision on the side of the other vehicle is
probable. CarM an uals 2 .c o m

Driving
Crossing road with a pedestrian

The system may operate when the vehicle
is turning left or right and detects a crossing
pedestrian if:
–
The pedestrian is crossing in front of the
vehicle.
–


The pedestrian can clearly be detected by the
sensors.
–


The scenery is detectable by the sensors (e.g.
brightness, contrast vs background).
–


The vehicle speed is between 3 and 15
mph
(5 and 25
km/h).
Malfunction
This warning lamp lights up on the instrument panel, if the automatic braking
system is reduced or degraded.
This is a normal behavior, which does not
request the support of a qualified workshop.
This may be caused by a reduced visibility
(e.g.

rain, fog, snow, blinding by low sun) or by
a real sensor blockage. In this case, stop the
vehicle and verify if the front camera or the front
radar is covered by dirt, snow, ice or anything
preventing the sensing.
In the event of a malfunction, 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.
If these warning lamps come on
after the engine has been switched
off and then restarted, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop to have the
system checked.
These warning lamps light up on the instrument panel and/or in the
warning lamp display for seat belts and front
passenger airbag to indicate that the driver's
and/or front passenger's seat belt is not fastened
(depending on version). The automatic braking
system is deactivated until the seat belts are
fastened.
Distraction detection
For more information, refer to the
General recommendations on the use
of driving and manoeuvring aids .
The function comprises the "Driver Attention
Warning" system combined with the "Driver
Attention Warning by Camera" system.
These systems are in no way designed to keep the driver awake or to prevent
the driver from falling asleep at the wheel.
It is the driver’s responsibility to stop if feeling
tired.
Take a break if you are feeling tired or at least
every 2 hours.
Activation/Deactivation
By default, the function is automatically activated
at every engine start.
The settings are changed via the ADAS
touch screen application.
or
Direct access to the Shortcuts for driving aids .
Driver Attention Warning
The system triggers an alert when it
detects that the driver has not taken a
break after two hours of driving at a speed above
43 mph (70
km/h).
This alert is issued via the display of a message
encouraging the driver 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 resets itself if one of the following
conditions is met:
–

With the engine running, the vehicle has been
stationary for more than 15 minutes.
