DRIVER CORRECTION DEVICES AND AIDS (5/12)
Braking anticipation
Depending on the vehicle, when you
rapidly release the accelerator, the
system anticipates the braking ma-
noeuvre in order to reduce stopping
distances.
Special cases
When using the cruise control:
– if you use the accelerator, when you release it, the system may be trig-
gered;
– if you do not use the accelerator, the system will not be triggered.
Operating faults
When the system detects an operat-
ing fault the message “Check brak-
ing system” appears on the instrument
panel along with the
© warning
light.
Consult an approved dealer.
Emergency brake assist
This system supplements the ABS
and helps reduce vehicle stopping dis-
tances.
Operating principle
The system is for detecting an emer-
gency braking situation. In this case,
the braking assistance immediately de-
velops maximum power and may trig-
ger ABS regulation.
ABS braking is maintained as long as
the brake pedal is applied.
Hazard warning lights switching on
Depending on the vehicle, these may
light up in the event of sudden decel-
eration.

2.33
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 2, 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 2 is
not obscured (by dirt, mud, snow, etc.).
Operation
While driving (at speeds of between
18.6 and 124 mph (30 and 140 km/h),
if there is a risk of collision with the ve-
hicle in front, the warning light 3 will be
displayed on the instrument panel in
red, along with 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.

For vehicles not fitted with a naviga-
tion system
– With the vehicle at a standstill, press and hold the switch 6 OK to access
the settings menu,
– repeatedly press the control 7 up or
down until you reach the “Driving as-
sistance” menu. Press the switch 6
OK;
– repeatedly press control 7 up or down
until you reach the “Active braking”
menu, then press the switch 6 OK.
Activating or deactivating the
system
For vehicles fitted with a navigation
system
On the multifunction screen
4, select
the “vehicle” menu, “Driving assist-
ance”, and “Active braking”, and then
choose “ON" or "OFF".
DRIVER CORRECTION DEVICES AND AIDS (7/12)
You can access menu “Driving as-
sistance” directly from button 5
.
Press the switch 6 OK again to activate
or deactivate the function:
= function activated
< function deactivated
Warning light
\b is displayed on the
instrument panel when the system is
deactivated.
This system is reactivated each time
the ignition is switched on.
Conditions for non-activation of the
system
The system does not activate:
– when the gear lever is in neutral;
– when the parking brake is activated;
– while cornering.

DRIVER CORRECTION DEVICES AND AIDS (8/12)
Active emergency braking
This function is an additional driving aid. However, this function is not
under any circumstances intended to replace the due care and attention
of the driver, who should at all times be in control of the vehicle.
System servicing/repairs
– In the event of an impact, the sensor alignment may become changed, and \
its operation will consequently be affected. Deactivate the function, then consult
an authorised dealer.
– Any work in the area where the radar is located (repairs, replacements,\
touch- ing up of paintwork) must be carried out by a qualified professional.
Only an authorised dealer is qualified to service the system.
In the event of system disturbance
Some conditions can disturb or damage the operation of the system, such \
as:
– a complex environment (metal bridge, etc.);
– poor weather conditions (snow, hail, black ice, etc.).
Risk of inadvertent braking.
Operating faults
When the system detects an operating
fault, the
\b warning light lights up
on the instrument panel, with the mes-
sage “Active braking disconnected”.
There are two possibilities:
– the system is temporarily disrupted (for example: radar obscured by
dirt, mud, snow etc.). In this case,
park the vehicle and switch off the
engine. Clean the detection zone of
the radar. When you next start the
engine, the warning light and the
message go out
– otherwise, this may be caused by another fault. Consult an approved
dealer.

2.37
DRIVER CORRECTION DEVICES AND AIDS (10/12)
Driver assistance with a
trailer
Depending on the vehicle, this system
helps to maintain control over the vehi-
cle while using a trailer.
It detects shaking caused by towing a
trailer under certain driving conditions.
Operating conditions
– the towbar must be approved by an authorised dealer;
– the wiring must be approved by an authorised dealer;
– the towbar must be connected to the vehicle.
If the towbar wiring is
plugged in but no trailer
is attached (bicycle car-
rier, luggage carrier with
lighting, etc.), the function may act
under certain rutted road conditions.
Risk of vehicle deceleration.
Operating principle
The function stabilises the vehicle by:
– asymmetric braking of the front wheels to reduce shaking caused by
the trailer;
– braking of all four wheels and limita- tion on engine torque to reduce the
vehicle speed until the shaking has
stopped.
Warning light
 flashes on the in-
strument panel to inform the driver.

2.39
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.

parting from the lane;
– very fast lane departure;
– driving continuously on a line;
– on bends, the function allows for slightly cutting the bend;
– hazard warning lights activated;

BLIND SPOT WARNING (3/4)
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 6 will be activated only if
that vehicle remains in the blind spot for
more than one second.
Display B
The function is activated and has not
detected any vehicles.
Display C
First warning: the indicator 4 means
that a vehicle has been detected in the
blind spot.
Display D
When the direction indicator is activa-
ted, the indicator light 6 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.
