Switching off:
Check the "Automatic emergency braking
deactivated " box.
The last selection remains in memory when the
ignition is switched off.
If the automatic emergency braking function is
deactivated, following each start a temporary
message will be displayed to signal this
once a speed threshold (6 mph - 10 km/h) is
exceeded.
To deactivate:
- Following an impact to the windscreen
close to the sensor.
- When towing a trailer.
- When the vehicle is being towed.
To check (whether it is necessary to deactivate
the function before):
- crossing a toll payment barrier.
- going through an automatic car wash.
Advice
To clean or clear: from the top of the
windscreen, any dirt, masking deposits or
accumulation of mist on the windscreen, any
stickers or leaves obstructing the field of vision
of the laser, as well as accumulations of snow
on the bonnet that could inter fere with the
perception of risks and so the measurement.
If the laser is obscured, a message appears
to suggest cleaning and/or demisting the
windscreen.
Remain particularly vigilant when driving
in poor weather (very heavy rain, hail, fog,
snow…) as braking distances increase while
the laser's calculation parameters stay the
same.Maintenance
Check that the sensor is not obscured.
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
- The message " Automatic braking system
fault " accompanied by an audible signal
indicating that a fault has been detected.
- Following an impact, the system is
automatically put out of service, it no longer
works. The system detects the deployment
of airbags.
Class 1M Laser Product : The laser
rays are invisible, do not look at it
directly with an optical instrument
(magnifying glass, microscope…) as
there is a risk of eye injury.

without going beyond the point of resistance;
the corresponding direction indicators will flash

If you forget to cancel the
direction indicators for more than
twenty seconds, the volume of the
audible signal will increase if the speed
is above 40 mph (60 km/h). This function can be used at any speed,
but it is particularly useful for changing
lane on fast roads.
