Particular situations
In certain situations (e.g. start-
ing the engine), the parking brake
can automatically alter its force. This
is normal operation.
To advance your vehicle a few cen-
timetres without starting the engine,
but with the ignition on, press on the
brake pedal and release the park-
ing brake by pulling then releasing
control lever A . The full release of
t h e p a r k i n g b r a k e i s c o n fi r m e d b y t h e
warning lamp in the control lever A
and the warning lamp in the instru-
ment panel going off and the display
of the message "Handbrake off".
If a parking brake fault occurs while
applied o r i f t h e b a t t e r y r u n s fl a t , a n
emergency release is always possible.
EMERGENCY BRAKING
In the event of a failure of the main serv-
ice brake or in an exceptional situation
(e.g. driver taken ill, under instruction,
etc) a continuous pull on the control
lever
A
will stop the vehicle .
The electronic stability programme
(ESP) provides stability during emer-
gency braking.
If there is a fault with the emergency
braking, one of the following messages
will be displayed:
- "Parking brake faulty".
- "Parking brake control faulty". If a failure of the ESP system
is signalled by the illumina-
tion of this warning lamp, then
braking stability is not guaran-
teed.
In this event, stability must be assured
by the driver by repeating alternate "pull
release" actions on control lever A .
The emergency braking must
only be used in exceptional
circumstances.

DISTANCE ALERT*
For the safety time to be observed, re-
fer to the current legislation or highway
code recommendations in your country.
The system operates when the speed
of your vehicle is higher than 45 mph
(70 km/h) and below 90 mph (150 km/h).
It has a programmable visual alert
which remains in the memory when the
ignition is switched off.
This system is a driving aid and cannot,
in any circumstances, take the place of
the vigilance and responsibility of the
driver.
1. On/off.
2. Alert value increase (+)/decrease (-).
The information is grouped together in
the head-up display.
Once the system has been activated:
A. The speed of your vehicle is outside
the operating range.
B. Your vehicle is within the operating
range but no vehicle has been de-
tected.
C. The vehicle in front of you has been
detected.
The current time separating you from this vehicle is displayed per-
manently.
D. The time between your vehicle and
the vehicle in front is less than the
p r o g r a m m e d a l e r t v a l u e ( i t fl a s h e s ) .
Buttons Displays during operation
Driving aid which informs the driver of
the time interval (in seconds) separat-
ing them from the vehicle in front when
the driving conditions are stable.
It does not detect stationary vehicles
and does not itself take any action on
your vehicle’s controls.

Operating limits
The system switches to standby auto-
matically if the sensor does not detect
the vehicle in front correctly (very dif-
fi c u l t w e a t h e r c o n d i t i o n s , s e n s o r o u t o f
adjustment, ...). A message is displayed
in the multifunction screen.
The vehicle being followed may not be
detected in certain conditions such as,
for example:
- when turning,
- when changing lane,
- when the vehicle in front is either too far ahead (maximum range of
the sensor: 100 m) or stationary (in
a t r a f fi c j a m , . . . ) ,
When the vehicle being followed is much
too near (time between the two vehicles
less than 0.5 seconds), the display re-
m a i n s fi x e d a t 0 . 5 s e c o n d s .
Programming the alert value
Select the alert value required using
button 2 , in steps of 0.1 second:
- up to increase: "+",
- down to decrease: "-".
Example with a value of 2 seconds:
This system is not an anti-colli-
sion radar and it does not act of the
movement of your vehicle. It pro-
vides information but cannot, in any
circumstances, take the place of the
vigilance and responsibility of the
driver.
Press button 1 , the indicator lamp
comes on.
The system is activated but will only op-
erate from 45 mph (70 km/h).
The alert value can be programmed to
between 0.9 second and 2.5 seconds.
The visual alert can be deactivated by
programming a value of 0 second. When the time (in seconds) between
your vehicle and the vehicle in front is
less than the programmed time (alert
v a l u e ) , a v i s u a l a l e r t fl a s h e s .
A safety time of 2 seconds is
recommended in normal driving
conditions (correct traction and
speed) to avoid a collision in the
event of emergency braking.

Operation
The system intervenes only when driving
economically.
Depending on the driving situation and
your vehicle's equipment, the system
may advise you to skip one or more
gears. You can follow this instruc-
tion without engaging the intermediate
gears.
The gear recommended should not
be considered compulsory. In fact, the

o f t r a f fi c a n d s a f e t y r e m a i n d e t e r m i n i n g
factors when choosing the best gear.
Therefore, the driver remains responsi-
ble for deciding whether or not to follow
the advice given by the system.
This function cannot be deactivated. Example:
- You are in third gear.
In the case of driving which
makes particular demands on
the performance of the engine
( fi r m p r e s s u r e o n t h e a c c e l e r a t o r
pedal, for example, when overtak-
ing...), the system will not recom-
mend a gear change.
The system never suggests:
- e n g a g i n g fi r s t g e a r ,
- engaging reverse gear,
- engaging a lower gear. - You press the accelerator pedal
moderately.
- The system may suggest that you engage a higher gear, if appropriate.
The information appears in the form
of an arrow in the instrument panel
screen.
