Assisted Lane Departure Warning System
Using a camera placed at the top of the windscreen to identify lane markings on the ground, this system corrects the trajectory of the vehicle while
alerting the driver if it detects a risk of involuntary crossing of a line.
This system is particularly useful on motor ways and main roads.
Conditions for operation
The speed of the vehicle must be between 40
and 112 mph (65 and 180 km/h).
The carriageway must have at least one lane
marking (solid or broken) on the ground.
The driver must hold the wheel with both
hands.
The change of trajectory is not accompanied by
operation of the direction indicators.
The ESC system must be activated.This system is a driving aid which
cannot, in any circumstances, replace
the need for vigilance on the part of the
driver.
The driver remains responsible for the
vehicle in all circumstances. The system
helps the driver only when there is a risk
of the vehicle involuntarily wandering
from the lane it is being driven on.
It does not manage the safe driving
distance, the speed of the vehicle or the
brakes.
The driver must hold the steering wheel
in a way that allows control to be taken
back in circumstances where the system
is not able to intervene (where there are
no lane markings, for example).
It is necessary to observe the driving
regulations and take a break every
two
hours.

While the direction indicators are on and for
a few seconds after switching them off, the
system considers that any change of trajectory
is voluntary and no correction is triggered
during this period.
However, with the "Blind Spot Monitoring
System" activated, if the driver starts changing
lane and another vehicle is detected in the
vehicle's blind spot, the system will correct
the trajectory of the vehicle even though the
direction indicators are on.
For more information on the Blind Spot
Monitoring System, refer to the corresponding
section. If the system detects that the driver is
not holding the wheel firmly enough
during an automatic correction of
trajectory, it interrupts the correction.
An alert is triggered to encourage
the driver to take back control of the
vehicle.
If the driver wishes to maintain the
trajectory of the vehicle, they can
prevent the correction by keeping a firm
grip on the wheel (during an avoiding
manoeuvre, for example).
The correction is interrupted if the
direction indicators are operated.
Operation
Once the system identifies a risk of the vehicle
involuntarily crossing one of the lane markings
detected, it makes the correction to the
trajectory necessary to return the vehicle to its
initial path.
The driver will then notice a turning movement
of the steering wheel. This warning lamp flashes during
trajectory correction.

Activation / Deactivation
Activation / deactivation of the
system is done in the Driving menu
of the touch screen.
The state of the system stays in memory when
the ignition is switched off. In the event of a fault with the system, you are
alerted by the illumination of these warning
lamps in the instrument panel, accompanied by
the display of a message and an audible signal.
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.

Blind Spot Monitoring System
This 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.
Activation / Deactivation
Activation and deactivation of the
system is done in the Driving menu
of the touch screen.
Select the " Driving assistance " tab, then
" Blind spot monitoring ".
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.
This 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.
This system is a driving aid that cannot,
in any circumstances, replace the need
for vigilance on the part of the driver. This indicator lamp comes on in the
instrument panel.
To deactivate the system, select
"
Blind spot monitoring " again in the
" Driving assistance " tab.
The indicator lamp goes off.
Sensors fitted in the front and rear bumpers
monitor the blind spots.
The state of the system remains in memory on
switching off the ignition.
The system is automatically deactivated
when towing with a towbar approved by
P E U G E O T.

Operation
The 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,
bicycle - is detected.
The following conditions must be met for this:
-
a
ll vehicles are moving in the same
direction and in adjacent lanes,
-
t
he speed of your vehicle is between 7 and
87 mph (12 and 140 km/h),
-
y
ou overtake a vehicle with a speed
difference of less than 6 mph (10 km/h),
-
a v
ehicle overtakes you with a speed
difference of less than 15 mph (25 km/h),
-
t
he traffic is 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,
a
caravan... No alert will be given in the following situations:
-
i
n the presence of non-moving objects
(parked vehicles, barriers, street lamps,
road signs...),
-
w
ith vehicles moving in the opposite
direction,
-
d
riving on a winding road or a sharp corner,-
w
hen 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
n very heavy traffic: vehicles detected in
front and behind are confused with a lorry
or a stationary object,
-
w
hen overtaking quickly.

Operating fault
High pressure jet wash
When washing your vehicle, direct the
lance at least 30 cm away from the
sensors.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.
Take 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, this warning lamp flashes
for a few moments in the instrument panel,
accompanied by illumination of the Service
warning lamp and the display of a message.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked.
In addition to the fixed warning lamp in the door
mirror on the side in question, a correction of
trajectory will be felt if you cross a lane marking
with the direction indicators on, to help you
avoid a collision.
