Fatigue detection system
It is recommended that you take a break as soon as you feel tired or at least every two hours.
D epending on version, the vehicle either has the "Driving time warning system" only, or this combined with the "Fatigue detection system".
Driving time warning
The system t riggers a n a lert o nce i t d etects t hat t
he driver has not taken a break after two hours
o
f driving at a speed above 40 mph (65 km/h).
This
alert takes the form of the display of a
m
essage encouraging you to take a break,
a
ccompanied by an audible signal.
If
the driver does not follow this advice, the
a
lert is repeated hourly until the vehicle is
s
topped.
The
system
cannot
in
any
c
ircumstances
replace
the
need
for
v
igilance
on
the
part
of
the
driver.
Do
not
take
the
wheel
if
you
are
tired. As
soon as the speed of the vehicle
d
rops below 40 mph (65 km/h), the
s
ystem goes into standby.
The
driving time is counted again once
t
he speed is above 40 mph (65 km/h).
The
system resets itself if one of the following c
onditions is met:
-
e
ngine running, the vehicle has been
s
tationary for more than 15 minutes,
-
t
he ignition has been switched off for a few
m

-
t

This system indicates the proximity of an obstacle (examples: pedestrian, vehicle, tree,
g
ate) which comes within the field of detection
o
f sensors located in the bumper.
Certain
types of obstacle (examples: stake,
r
oadworks cone) detected initially will no longer
b
e detected at the end of the manoeuvre, if
t
hey are located in blind spots in the sensors'
f
ield
o
f
d
etection.
Parking sensors
This system cannot in any circumstances replace the need for
v
igilance on the part of the driver.The
system is switched on by engaging reverse
g
e a r.
This is confirmed by an audible signal.
The system is switched off when you come out
o
f reverse gear.
Audible assistance
The proximity information is given by an i
ntermittent audible signal, the frequency of which
i
ncreases as the vehicle approaches the obstacle.
The
sound emitted by the speaker (right or
l
eft) indicates the side on which the obstacle is
l
ocated.
When
the distance between the vehicle and
t
he obstacle becomes less than approximately
t
hirty centimetres, the audible signal becomes
c
ontinuous.
Rear parking sensors
Visual assistance
This supplements the audible signal by d isplaying bars in the screen or the instrument
p
anel which move progressively nearer to
t
he vehicle. When the obstacle is near, the
"
Danger" symbol is displayed.
