operation
three levels of operation are possible:
● P re-collision alert : if a risk of collision
with a vehicle is detected, a warning lamp
comes on in the instrument panel together
with an audible signal to encourage the
driver to make an avoiding manoeuvre.
t
h
e
thresholds for triggering the alert can be
set.
●

Br
aking assistance : increases the
braking started by the driver, only if a risk
of collision is detected.
●

A
utomatic pre-collision braking: when
your vehicle is too close to or closing
too quickly on the vehicle ahead of you,
the system automatically operates the
brakes to reduce the speed of impact. A
collision can be avoided automatically if the
difference in speed between your vehicle
and the one ahead is not more than 18 mph
(30 km/h).
You are then alerted by the display of
this warning lamp, accompanied by
an audible signal.th e automatic braking may bring the vehicle to
a complete stop if the situation requires it.
th

e brake lamps on your vehicle come on to
warn other road users.
th

e triggering of the system may cause
the engine to stall, unless the driver
depresses the clutch pedal quickly
enough during automatic braking.

Never leave accumulations of snow or
any object projecting above the bonnet
or in front of the roof: this might fall into
the field of vision of the sensor and
generate a detection.
operating limits
the system only detects vehicles (cars, lorries)
that are stationary or moving in the same
direction as your vehicle. In difficult weather conditions (very
heavy rain, snow, fog, hail...), braking
distances increase, which can reduce
the ability of the system to avoid a
collision.
the

driver must therefore remain
particularly vigilant.
th

e system is not triggered or is interrupted if
the driver:
-

a
ccelerates strongly (even if the speed
limiter is on),
-

o
r turns the steering wheel suddenly
(avoiding manoeuvre).
Detection capability is less effective if:
-

y
ou are driving on roads with pronounced
bends and/or on roads in poor condition,
-

y
our vehicle is excessively loaded, as
this changes the horizontal attitude of the
vehicle.
-

y
our vehicle skids.It does not detect small vehicles
(bicycles, motorcycles), pedestrians or
animals, nor non-reflective stationary
objects.unwanted triggering of the system
It is possible for the system to detect a risk of
imminent collision and start working, in the
following conditions in particular:
-

d
etection of an object located close to the
edge of the road entering a corner (safety
barrier, lamp post or road sign),
-

d
etection of a structure located at the top
or bottom of a steep slope (advertising
hoarding, steet lighting),
-

d
etection of reflective objects (central
reservation...) in the road,
-

d
etection of the upper bar of a bridge or a
traffic light gantry,
-

p
assing a vehicle travelling in the other
direction in a corner,
-

p
assing a vehicle traveling in the other
direction, at a crossroads, when your
vehicle is turning left or right,
-

i
f the vehicle ahead of you sends up water
or snow,
-

i
f your vehicle stops very close to an
overhanging wall or other vehicles,
-

w
hen your vehicle closes rapidly on the
vehicle ahead,
-

i
f the vehicle is raised or lowered,
-
i

f the vehicle passes through a plastic curtain,
-

i
f driving through mist or smoke,
-

i
f the sensor is misaligned (following
replacement after a collision).

System which manages the duration of use of certain functions to conserve a sufficient level of
charge in the battery.
After the engine has stopped, you can still use functions such as the audio system, windscreen
wipers, dipped beam headlamps,
courtesy lamps, etc. for a maximum combined duration of
twenty


minutes.
th

is period may be greatly reduced if the battery is not fully charged. Let the engine run for the duration
specified to ensure that the battery
charge is sufficient.
Do not repeatedly and continuously
restart the engine in order to charge the
