When the dynamic cruise control is
automatically paused, it can only be
reactivated when safe conditions are
restored. t
h
e message "Activation
not possible, conditions unsuitable"
is displayed while reactivation is not
possible.
When the conditions allow, it is
recommended that the function be
reactivated by pressing button 2 (SE
t
+
)
or 3 (SE
t-

), which will make the current
speed of your vehicle the new cruise
speed setting, rather than by pressing
button 4 (on/pause) which reactivates
the cruise control using the old cruise
speed setting, which may be very
different from the current speed of your
vehicle. The speed regulation range is limited to a
maximum difference of 20 mph (30 km/h)
between the speed setting and the speed of
the vehicle in front.
Above this, the system goes into pause if the
safe distance becomes too small.
th

e dynamic cruise control uses only engine
braking to slow the vehicle. Consequently the
vehicle loses speed slowly, as when releasing
the accelerator pedal.
th

e system is paused automatically:
-

i
f the vehicle in front slows down too much
or too suddenly, and the driver does not
brake,
-

i
f a vehicle comes between your vehicle
and the vehicle in front,
-

i
f the system does not slow the vehicle
enough to continue to maintain a safe
distance, for example when descending a
steep hill.Limits of operation
As the radar's field of detection is quite narrow,
it is possible that the system may not detect:
-

v
ehicles of reduced width, such as
motorcycles, for example, -

v
ehicles not running in the middle of the
lane,
-
v
ehicles entering a corner,
-
v
ehicles changing lane at the last moment.
th

e cruise control does not take
account of:
- s tationary vehicles,
-

v
ehicles driving in the opposite
direction.

In the event of a fault with the dynamic cruise
control, you are alerted by an audible signal
and display of the message message "Driving
aid functions fault".
Have the system checked by a PE
u
g
Eo
t
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Operating faultthe dynamic cruise control operates
by day and at night, in fog or moderate
rainfall. When the cruise control is working, take
care if making a maintained press on
one of the cruise control programmed
speed modification buttons: this can
lead to a very quick change in the
speed of your vehicle.
Do not use the dynamic cruise control
on slippery sur faces or in heavy traffic.
When descending a steep hill, the
cruise control may not be able to
prevent the vehicle from exceeding the
programmed speed.
When ascending a steep hill or when
towing, it might not be possible to
achieve or maintain the programmed
speed.

void any risk of jamming the pedals:
-

e
nsure that mats are secured
c o r r e c t l y,
-

n
ever fit one mat on top of another.
It is recommended that you always keep
your feet close to the pedals.
If the difference between the
programmed speed setting and the
speed of the vehicle in front is too
great, the speed cannot be adjusted:
the cruise control is automatically
deactivated.
th

e system does not act on the braking
system, but works only with engine
braking.
th

e regulation range is limited: there
will no longer be any adjustment of
speed if the difference between the
programmed speed setting and the
speed of the vehicle in front becomes
too high.
th

e dynamic cruise control cannot in any
circumstances replace the observation
of speed limits, nor the need for the
vigilance on the part of the driver.

Collision Risk Alert
Depending on the degree of risk of collision
detected by the system and the alert threshold
chosen, different levels of alert can be
triggered and displayed in the instrument panel
or the head-up display.
th

is level of alert is based on the inter-vehicle
time between your vehicle and the vehicle
ahead. Level 1
: visual alert only, warning you
that the vehicle ahead is very close.
A message on your vigilance is
displayed as you close on the vehicle
ahead.
th

is information also appears in the
head-up display.
For more information on the Head-up
display , refer to the corresponding
section.

this level of alert is based on the time before
collision. It takes account of the vehicle
dynamics, the speed of your vehicle and the
one in front, the environmental conditions, the
operation of the vehicle (cornering, pedals
pressed, etc.) to trigger the alert at the best
moment.Level 2
: visual and audible alert,
warning you that a collision is
imminent.
A message indicating that you should
brake is displayed.
Where the speed of your vehicle is too
high approaching another vehicle, the
first level of alert may not be displayed:
the level 2 alert may be displayed
di r e c t l y.
Furthermore, the level 1 alert is never
displayed with the " Close" threshold.
Poor weather conditions (very heavy
rain, accumulation of snow in front of
the radar and the camera) may hinder
the operation of the system, with the
display of an operating fault message.
th

e system remains out of service until
the message disappears.
Programming the alert
thresholds
the thresholds for triggering an alert determine
how you wish to be warned of the presence of a
vehicle moving or stationary ahead of you, or a
pedestrian in your traffic lane.
You can select one of three thresholds:
-
"Distant ", to be warned early (cautious
driving).
-
"Normal ".
-
"Close ", to be warned later.

this system, also called automatic emergency
braking, aims to reduce the speed of impact
or avoid a frontal collision by your vehicle
(between 3 and 87 mph (5 and 140 km/h)
where the driver fails to react.
us
ing a radar and a camera, this system acts
on the vehicle's braking system.
Active Safety Brake
the driver can take back control of the vehicle
at any time by sharply turning the steering
wheel and/or pressing the accelerator pedal.
op
eration of the system may be felt by
slight vibration in the brake pedal.
If the vehicle comes to a complete stop,
the automatic braking is maintained for
1 to 2 seconds.
If your vehicle has a manual gearbox, in
the event of the automatic emergency
braking bringing the vehicle to a
complete stop, the engine may stall.
If your vehicle has an automatic
gearbox, in the event of the automatic
emergency braking bringing the vehicle
to a complete stop, the vehicle will
move off again; press the brake pedal.
If automatic emergency braking is
not activated, you are alerted by the
fixed display of this warning lamp
accompanied by a message.
If the radar and the camera have
confirmed the presence of a vehicle
or a pedestrian, this warning lamp
flashes when the system is operating.
Important
: if operation of the
automatic emergency braking is
triggered, you should take back
control of your vehicle and brake
with the pedal to add to or finish the
automatic braking.
th

e point at which braking is triggered
may be adjusted according to the
reaction from the driver, such as
movement of the steering wheel or
pressing the accelerator pedal.

Fatigue detection system
the system resets itself if one of the following
conditions is met:
-
e
ngine running, the vehicle has been
stationary for more than 15 minutes,
-

t
he ignition has been switched off for a few
minutes,
-

t
he driver's seat belt is unfastened and
their door is open.
As soon as the speed of the vehicle
drops below 40 mph (65 km/h), the
system goes into standby.
th

e driving time is counted again once
the speed is above 40 mph (65 km/h).
th

e system cannot in any
circumstances replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
Do not take the wheel if you are tired.
th
e system triggers an alert once it
detects that the driver has not taken
a break after two hours of driving at a
speed above 40 mph (65 km/h).
It is recommended that you take a break as
soon as you feel tired or at least every two
hours.
Depending on version, the vehicle either has
the "Driving time warning system" only, or this
combined with the "Fatigue detection system".
Driving time warning

this system indicates the proximity of an
obstacle (examples: pedestrian, vehicle, tree,
gate) which comes within the field of detection
of sensors located in the bumper.
Certain types of obstacle (examples: stake,
roadworks cone) 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
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.
Audible assistance
Rear parking sensors
this supplements the audible signal by
displaying bars in the screen or the instrument
panel which move progressively nearer to
the vehicle. When the obstacle is near, the
"Danger" symbol is displayed.
Visual assistance
this system cannot in any
circumstances replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
th
e 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.
