Adaptive Cruise Control
Refer to the General recommendations
on the use of driving and
manoeuvring aids and to Cruise control
- particular recommendations.
This system automatically maintains the speed of your vehicle at a value which
you set (speed setting), while keeping a safe
distance from the vehicle in front (target vehicle),
and which has been set beforehand by the
driver. The system controls the vehicle's
acceleration and deceleration automatically
using only engine braking (as if the driver had
pressed the "-" minus button).


To do this, it uses a radar located in the front
bumper.
Primarily designed for driving on main
roads and motorways, this system only
works with moving vehicles driving in the
same direction as your vehicle.
If the driver operates a direction indicator
to overtake a slower vehicle, the cruise
control allows the vehicle to temporarily
approach the vehicle in front to assist the

164
Driving
overtaking manoeuvre, without ever
exceeding the speed setting.
Some vehicles present on the road may
not be properly seen or may be
misinterpreted by the radar (e.g. a lorry),
which may lead to a poor assessment of
distance and lead to the vehicle accelerating
or braking inappropriately.

Driving
Operating limits
The regulation range is limited to a maximum
difference of 19 mph (30 km/h) between the
cruise speed setting and the speed of the
vehicle in front.
Above this, the system pauses itself if the safety
distance becomes too short.
The adaptive cruise control uses only engine
braking to slow the vehicle. Consequently the
vehicle loses speed slowly, as when releasing
the accelerator pedal.
The system is paused automatically:
–

if the vehicle in front slows down too much or
too suddenly

, and the driver does not brake,
–

if a vehicle comes between your vehicle and
the vehicle in front,
–


if the system does not slow the vehicle enough
to continue to maintain a safe distance, for
example when descending a steep hill.
Cases of non-detection by the radar:
–


Stationary vehicles (traffic jam, breakdown,
etc.).
–


V
ehicles driving in the opposite direction.
When the driver must suspend the cruise
control system:


– When following a narrow vehicle.

– Vehicles not running in the middle of the lane.

– Vehicles entering a corner.
– V ehicles changing lane at the last moment.
Reactivate cruise control when conditions permit.
Cases where the driver is urged to take back
control immediately:
–

When a vehicle cuts in sharply between your
vehicle and the one in front.
–


Excessively sharp deceleration of the vehicle
in front of you.
The adaptive cruise control operates by day and night, in fog or moderate rainfall.
The system does not act on the braking system, but works only with engine
braking.
The regulation range is limited: there will
no longer be any adjustment of speed if the
difference between the programmed speed
setting and the speed of the vehicle in front
becomes too great.
If the difference between the
programmed speed setting and the
speed of the vehicle in front is too great, the
speed cannot be adjusted: the cruise control
is automatically deactivated.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction with the adaptive
cruise control, you will be alerted by an audible
signal and the display of the message "Driving
aid functions fault".
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.

It can be dangerous to drive if the brake
lamps are not in perfect working order.
It is possible that warnings are not given,
are given too late or seem unjustified.
The driver must always stay in control of the
vehicle and be prepared to react at any time
to avoid an accident.
Following an impact, the system is
automatically deactivated.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Distance Alert
This function warns the driver that their vehicle
is at risk of a collision with the vehicle in front, or
with a pedestrian or cyclist present in their traffic
lane.
Modifying the alert trigger threshold
This trigger threshold determines the sensitivity
with which the function warns of the risk of
collision.
The threshold is set via the vehicle configuration menu with the audio
system or touch screen.
►

Select one of the three pre-defined
thresholds: "Far", "Normal" or "Close".
The last threshold selected is memorised when
the ignition is switched off.
Operation
Depending on the degree of risk of collision
detected by the system and the alert trigger

168
Driving
threshold chosen by the driver, several different
levels of alert may be triggered and displayed on
the instrument panel.
The system takes account of the vehicle
dynamics, the speed of your vehicle and the one
in front, the environmental conditions and the
operation of the vehicle (actions on the pedals,
steering wheel, etc.) to trigger the alert at the
most relevant moment.
Level 1 (orange): visual alert only,
warning that the vehicle in front is very
close.
The message
"Vehicle close" is displayed.
Level 2 (red): visual and audible alert,
warning 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: the level 1 alert is not displayed
when there is a stationary obstacle or
when the "Near " trigger threshold has been
selected.
Intelligent emergency
braking assistance (iEBA)
If the driver brakes, but not sufficiently to avoid
a collision, this system will provide additional
braking, within the limits of the laws of physics. This assistance will only be provided if the driver
presses the brake pedal.
Active Safety Brake

This function, also called automatic emergency
braking, intervenes following the alerts 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
collision where the driver fails to react.
Operation
The system operates subject to the following
conditions:
–

The vehicle's speed does not exceed 37 mph
(60 km/h) when a pedestrian is detected.
– The vehicle's speed does not exceed 50 mph
(80 km/h) when a stationary vehicle or a cyclist
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.
With an automatic gearbox, in the event of
automatic emergency braking bringing the
vehicle to a complete stop, keep the brake pedal
depressed to prevent the vehicle from moving
off again.
With a manual gearbox, in the event of automatic
emergency braking bringing the vehicle to a
complete stop, the engine may stall.
The driver can maintain control of the vehicle at any time by firmly turning the
steering wheel and/or firmly depressing the
accelerator pedal.
The brake pedal may vibrate slightly while the function is operating.
If the vehicle comes to a complete stop,
automatic braking is maintained for 1 to 2
seconds.
Deactivation / Activation
By default, the system is automatically activated
at every engine start.
It is set via the vehicle
configuration menu.
Deactivation of the system is signalled by
the illumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by the display of a message.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, this warning
lamp comes on 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 to indicate
that the driver's and/or front passenger's seat
belt is not fastened (depending on version).
