Activation and operating
conditions
The vehicle has a camera located at the top of
the windscreen, and depending on the version,
a radar located in the front bumpers.
The system is active from about 4 mph (7 km/h)
and is deactivated below about 3
mph (5 km/h).
It takes account of:
-
v
ehicles running in the same direction or
stationary,
-
p
edestrians in the traffic lane (bicycles,
motorcycles, animals and objects on the
road are not necessarily detected). This system is designed to assist the
driver and improve road safety.
It is the driver's responsibility to
continuously monitor the state of the
traffic, observing the driving regulations.
This system does not avoid the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
As soon as the system detects a potential
obstacle, it prepares the braking circuit in
case automatic braking is needed. This
may cause a slight noise and a sense of
deceleration.
Operating limits
In the following cases, deactivating the
system via the vehicle's configuration menu is
recommended:
-
w
hen towing a trailer,
-
w
hen carrying long objects on roof bars or a
roof rack,
-
b
efore using an automatic car wash, with
the engine running,
-
b
efore placing the vehicle on a rolling stand
in a workshop,
-
w
hen the vehicle is being towed, with the
engine running,
-
w
hen a "space-saver" type spare wheel is
fitted (depending on version), It is possible that warnings are not given,
are given too late or seem unjustified.
Consequently, always stay alert and be
prepared to react at any time to avoid an
accident.Distance alert
Depending on the degree of risk of collision
detected by the system and the alert threshold
chosen by the driver, different levels of alert can be
triggered and displayed in the instrument panel.
Level 1: visual alert only, signalling
to you that the vehicle in front is very
close.
The message " Vehicle close" is
displayed.
This level of alert is based on the inter-vehicle
time between your vehicle and the vehicle in
front. -

-
i
f the front bumper has been damaged
(version with radar),
-

f the brake lamps are not working.
Driving
219
The camera may be disrupted or not work
in the following situations:
-
p
oor visibility (inadequate street
lighting, falling snow, heavy rain, dense
f o g , e t c .),
-
d
azzle (headlamps of an oncoming
vehicle, low sun, reflections on a damp
road, leaving a tunnel, alternating
shade and light, etc.),
-
o
bstruction of the camera or radar
(mud, frost, snow, etc.).
In these situations, detection performance
may be reduced.
Clean the windscreen regularly,
particularly the area in front of the camera.
Do not allow snow to accumulate on the
bonnet or roof of the vehicle as this could
conceal the detection camera.
Clean the front bumper, especially around
the radar, removing mud, snow, etc. If the front bumper is to be repainted or
re-touched, contact a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop. Certain types of
paint could inter fere with the operation of
the radar.Fatigue detection system
It is recommended that you take a break as
soon as you feel tired or at least every two
hours.
Depending on version, the function either
has the "Driving time warning" only, or this
combined with the "Driver inattention alert".
The 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.
Activation / Deactivation
The system is activated or deactivated via the
vehicle configuration menu.
For more information on the menu, refer to the
part covering your screen in the "Dashboard
instruments" section.
The state of the system stays in memory when
the ignition is switched off.

Driving
223
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.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.
Driving situations and
associated alerts
To benefit from all necessary information on
the instrument panel, you must previously
select the "DRIVING" display mode.
The table below describes the alerts and
messages displayed depending on the driving
situation.
The display of these alerts is not sequential.
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.

Operating fault
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 driving aid 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 which cannot,
in any circumstances, replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
Activation / Deactivation
Activation and deactivation of the
system is done in the Vehicle /
Driving menu of the touch screen.
Select the " Driving functions " then the "Blind
spot sensors " tab.
This system warns the driver of the presence of
another vehicle in the blind spot angle of their
vehicle (areas hidden 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

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.
Conditions for operation
The following systems must be activated:
In the event of a fault with the system, this
warning lamp flashes for a few moments in the
instrument panel, accompanied by the Ser vice
warning lamp coming on and the display of a
message.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked. The system may suffer temporary
interference in certain weather conditions
(rain, hail, etc.).
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.
The system is automatically deactivated
when towing with a towbar approved by
P E U G E O T.
