TYRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (2/3)
Display
The display 1 and the warning light 4
 on the instrument panel warn
you of any tyre pressure faults (flat tyre,
punctured tyre, system fault, etc.).
“Puncture”
A wheel B is shown in red, the warning
light 4
 comes on, the message
“Puncture” appears and there is a beep.
This message appears along with the
® warning light.
They indicate that the affected wheel
is punctured or severely underinflated.
Replace it or contact an approved
dealer if it is punctured. Top up the tyre
pressure if the wheel is deflated.
“Check tyre pressure sensors”
A wheel A disappears, the warning
light 4
 flashes for several sec-
onds then comes on continuously and
the message “Check tyre pressure sen-
sors” appears.
This message appears along with the
© warning light. They indicate that
at least one wheel is not fitted with sen-
sors (e.g. emergency spare wheel).
Otherwise, consult an authorised
dealer.
“Adjust tyre pressure”
A wheel B
is shown in orange, the
warning light 4
 comes on and
the message “Adjust tyre pressure” ap-
pears.
They indicate that a wheel is deflated.
Check and, if necessary, readjust the
pressures of the four wheels when cold.
The warning light 4
 goes off after
a few minutes’ driving.

For your safety, the warning
light
® requires you to
stop immediately as soon
as traffic conditions allow.
The sudden loss of pressure in a tyre (burst tyre, etc.) cannot be det\
ected by the
system.

DRIVER CORRECTION DEVICES AND AIDS (6/12)
If the driver depresses the brake pedal
and the system still detects a risk of col-
lision, the brake force is increased.
If the driver fails to react following
an alert of an imminent collision, the
system activates the brakes.
Active emergency braking
Using the sensor 1, the system calcu-
lates the distance separating the vehi-
cle from the one in front and alerts the
driver if there is a risk of a front-end col-
lision. The driver can then brake the ve-
hicle to limit the damage arising from a
collision.
Note: Make sure that the sensor 1 is
not obscured (by dirt, mud, snow, etc.).
Operation
While driving (at speeds of between 20
and 85 mph (30 and 140 km/h)), if there
is a risk of collision with the vehicle in
front, warning light 2 will be displayed
on the instrument panel in red and, de-
pending on the vehicle, on the head-up
display, alongside a beep.
The system only detects vehicles
driving in the same direction of traf-
fic. The system cannot detect mo-
torcycles because of the difficulty in
forecasting their trajectory.

Rear wheel steering
On equipped vehicles, this system,
when the vehicle is being driven, steers
the rear wheels according to driving
conditions: at low speed this system
offers manoeuvrability, at higher speeds
it optimises stability.
When driving at low speeds, the rear
wheels steer in the opposite direction to
the front wheels (figure A) to increase
the vehicle’s manoeuvrability. This is
used when driving in towns, on winding
roads, during parking manoeuvres, etc. When driving at higher speeds, the rear
wheels steer in the same direction as
the front wheels (figure B
) to optimise
the vehicle’s stability. This is useful
when changing lanes or when corner-
ing etc.
Note: The system configuration (agil-
ity, etc.) depends on the mode selected
in the “Multi-Sense” menu (please refer
to the information on “Multi-Sense” in
Section 2). Operating faults
– If the
© warning light, together
with the message “Check power
steering”, is displayed on the instru-
ment panel: please contact an au-
thorised dealer.
– If the warning light
®, together
with the message “Power steering
fault”, is displayed on the instrument
panel, this indicates a fault in the
system.
DRIVER CORRECTION DEVICES AND AIDS (12/12)
AB
® requires you to stop
as soon as traffic conditions
allow. Contact an approved
Dealer.
An impact to the underside of the
vehicle (e.g.: striking a post, raised
kerb or other street furniture) may
result in damage to the vehicle (e.g.:
deformation of an axle).
To avoid any risk of accident, have
your vehicle checked by an ap-
proved Dealer.

BLIND SPOT WARNING (2/3)
Operation
This function will indicate:
– when the vehicle speed is between approximately 30 km/h (19 mph) and
140 km/h (87 mph);
– when another vehicle is in the blind spot area and travelling in the same
direction as your vehicle.
If another vehicle is being overtaken,
the indicator 4 will be activated only if
that vehicle remains in the blind spot for
more than one second.
Indicator 4
An indicator light 4 is situated on both
door mirrors 5.
Note: Clean the door mirrors 5 regu-
larly, so that the indicator lights 4 can
be seen properly.
Display B
The function is activated and has not
detected any vehicles.
Display C
Initial warning: the indicator light 4
shows that a vehicle has been detected
in the blind spot.
Display D
When the direction indicator is activa-
ted, the indicator light 4 flashes when a
vehicle is detected in the blind spot on
the side towards which you are about to
steer. If you cancel the direction indica-
tor, the function will return to the initial
warning (display C).

Note: The system’s detection range
operates according to a standard
lane width. If you are driving in
narrow traffic lanes, it may detect
vehicles in other lanes.

2.43
Operating faults
If the system detects a fault, the mes-
sage “Check blind spot alert” is dis-
played on the instrument panel. Consult
an authorised dealer.
Note: When the engine is started, the
indicator light 4 (display B) flashes
three times. It is normal.
– The system’s detection
range operates according
to a standard lane width. If
you are driving in wide traf-
fic lanes, the system might not
be able to detect a vehicle in the
blind spot.
– The system might be disrupted momentarily if it is exposed to
strong electromagnetic waves
(as beneath high-tension power
lines) or to very poor weather
conditions (heavy rain, snow,
etc.). Remain aware of driving
conditions.
There is a risk of accidents.
BLIND SPOT WARNING (3/3)
Because sensors have
been installed in the bum-
pers, any work (repairs, re-
placements, touching up of
paintwork) must be carried out by a
qualified professional.

This function is an addi-
tional aid which indicates
other vehicles in the blind
spot area.
It can never in any case be a subs-
titute for care nor for the driver’s
responsibility while in charge of his
vehicle.
The driver should always look out
for sudden hazards during driving:
make sure while manoeuvring that
there are no moving or movable ob-
jects (such as a child, an animal, a
pushchair or a bicycle) or small or
narrow obstacles (such as a boulder
or a post) in the blind spot area.
