this system indicates the proximity of an
obstacle (person, vehicle, tree, gate, etc.)
which comes within the field of detection of
sensors located in the bumper.
Certain types of obstacle (stake, roadworks
cone, etc.) detected initially will no longer be
detected at the end of the manoeuvre, if they
are located in blind spots in the sensors' field
of detection.
Parking sensors
this system cannot in any circumstances replace
the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
the system is switched on by engaging reverse
g e a r.
th
is is confirmed by an audible signal.
th

e system is switched off when you come out
of reverse gear.
Rear parking sensors
Audible assistance
the proximity information is given by an
intermittent audible signal, the frequency of which
increases as the vehicle approaches the obstacle.
th

e sound emitted by the speaker (right or left)
indicates the side on which the obstacle is located.
When the distance between the vehicle and
the obstacle becomes less than approximately
thirty centimetres, the audible signal becomes
continuous.
Visual assistance
this supplements the audible signal by
displaying bars in the screen which move
progressively nearer to the vehicle.
When the obstacle is very close, the "Danger"
symbol is displayed in the screen.

In addition to the rear parking sensors, the
front parking sensors are triggered when an
obstacle is detected in front and the speed of
the vehicle is still below 6 mph (10 km/h).
th
e front parking sensors are interrupted if
the vehicle stops for more than three seconds
in for ward gear, if no further obstacles are
detected or when the speed of the vehicle
exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h).
Front parking sensors
the function will be deactivated
automatically if a trailer is being towed
or a bicycle carrier is fitted (vehicle

In bad weather or in winter, ensure
that the sensors are not covered with
mud, ice or snow. When reverse gear is
engaged, an audible signal (long beep)
indicates that the sensors may be dirty.
Certain sound sources (motorcycle,
lorry, pneumatic drill, etc.) may trigger
the audible signals of the parking
sensor system.In the event of a malfunction of

Blind spot monitoring system
this driving assistance system warns the driver
of the presence of another vehicle in the blind
spot angle of their vehicle (areas masked from
the driver's field of vision), as soon as this
presents a potential danger.A warning lamp appears in the door mirror on
the side in question:
-
i

mmediately, when being overtaken,
-

a
fter a delay of about one second, when
overtaking a vehicle slowly.
th
is system is designed to improve
safety when driving and is in no
circumstances a substitute for the use
of the interior rear view mirror and door
mirrors. It is the driver's responsibility to
constantly check the traffic, to assess
the distances and relative speeds
of other vehicles and to predict their
movements before deciding whether to
change lane.
th
e blind spot sensor system can never
replace the need for vigilance on the
part of the driver.

No alert will be given in the following situations:
- i n the presence of immobile objects
(parked vehicles, barriers, street lamps,
road signs...),
-

w
ith vehicles moving in the opposite
direction,
-

d
riving on a sinuous road or a sharp
c o r n e r,
Sensors fitted in the front and rear bumpers
monitor the blind spots.
th

e alert is given by a warning lamp which
comes on in the door mirror on the side in
question as soon as a vehicle - car, lorry,
cycle

- is detected.
For this, the following conditions must be met:
-

a

ll the vehicles must be moving in the
same direction,
-

t

he speed of your vehicle is between 7 and
75 mph (12 and 140 km/h),
-
w
hen you overtake a vehicle with a speed
difference of less than 6 mph (10 km/h),
-

w

hen a vehicle overtakes you with a speed
difference of less than 15 mph (25 km/h),
-

t

he traffic must be flowing normally,
-

i

n the case of an overtaking manoeuvre,
if this is prolonged and the vehicle being
overtaken remains in the blind spot,
-

y

ou are driving on a straight or slightly
curved road,
-

y

our vehicle is not pulling a trailer,

- when overtaking (or being overtaken by) a very long vehicle (lorry, coach...) which is
at the same time detected at the rear in the
blind spot angle and present in the driver's
forward field of vision,
-

i

front and behind are confused with a lorry
or a stationary object,
-

w
hen overtaking quickly. F
t
o d
eactivate the system, press
this button again; the warning
lamp goes off.
Operating fault
the system may suffer temporary
interference in certain weather
conditions (rain, hail...).
In particular, driving on a wet sur face
or moving from a dry area to a wet area
can cause false alerts (for example, the
presence of a fog of water droplets in
the blind spot angle is interpreted as a
vehicle).
In bad or wintry weather, ensure that
the sensors are not covered by mud, ice
or snow.
ta

ke care not to cover the warning zone
in the door mirrors or the detection
zones on the front and rear bumpers
with adhesive labels or other objects;
they may hamper the correct operation
of the system. In the event of a fault, the warning
lamp in the button flashes then
goes


off.
Have it checked by a P
e
uge

dealer or a
qualified workshop.
th

e state of the system remains in memory on

of the vehicle (the difference corresponds to
the width of your vehicle without the mirrors).
th

e red lines represent a distance of about
