Use the cruise control only where the
driving conditions allow running at a
constant speed and at an adequate safe
distance.
Do not activate the cruise control in urban
areas, in heavy traffic, on winding or steep
roads, on slippery or flooded roads, or in
conditions of poor visibility (heavy rain,
fog, falling snow, etc.).
In some circumstances, it may not be
possible to maintain or reach the cruise
speed set: towing, vehicle heavily loaded,
steep climb.
The use of mats not approved by
PEUGEOT may inter fere with the
operation of the cruise control.
To avoid any risk of jamming the pedals:
-
e
nsure that the mat is positioned
c o r r e c t l y,
-
d
o not fit one mat on top of another.Dynamic cruise control
with Stop function
This system provides two functions:
- a utomatic regulation of the
vehicle speed at the value
programmed by the driver,
-
a
utomatic adjustment of the
distance between your vehicle
and the vehicle in front, which
can cause even the complete
stoppage of your vehicle.
It manages the acceleration and deceleration
of the vehicle by automatically acting on the
engine and the braking system.
For this purpose, a radar is located in the front
b u m p e r.
Principles
Primarily designed for driving on main
roads and motor ways, this system only
works on moving vehicles driving in the
same direction as your vehicle.
It automatically adapts the speed of your
vehicle to that of the vehicle in front, to maintain
a constant distance.
If the vehicle in front is running more slowly, the
system slows, or even stops your vehicle, using
engine braking and the braking system.
If the vehicle in front accelerates or changes
lane, the cruise control progressively
accelerates your vehicle to return to the
programmed speed.
If the driver operates a direction indicator to
overtake a slower vehicle, the cruise control
allows your vehicle to temporarily approach
the vehicle in front to assist the overtaking
manoeuvre, though never exceeding the
programmed speed.

When the cruise control is paused, it
can only be reactivated when all of the
safety conditions are met. The message
"Activation not possible, conditions
unsuitable" is displayed while reactivation
is not possible.
As a safety measure, wait until the current
speed reaches the speed set to reactivate
the function by pressing button 4.

For more information on Recognition of
speed limit signs and recommendation ,
refer to the corresponding section. As a precaution, it is recommended
that you select a cruise speed close to
the current speed of your vehicle, so
as to avoid any sudden acceleration or
deceleration of the vehicle.
Modification of the
programmed inter-vehicle
distance
Three threshold settings are suggested for the
inter-vehicle distance:
-
"Distant " (3
dashes),
-
"Normal " (2
dashes),
-
"Close " (1
dash).
Engine running and cruise control on (green),
you can modify the speed setting.

Exceeding the programmed
setting
It is possible to exceed the speed setting
temporarily by depressing the accelerator
pedal.
The cruise control no longer manages the
braking system during this period.
Simply release the accelerator pedal to return
to the programmed speed.
If the programmed speed setting is exceeded,
the display of the speed setting disappears
and a message "Cruise control suspended"
is displayed until the accelerator pedal is
released.
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.

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. -
fo
llowing impact damage to the windscreen
close to the detection camera,
-
i
f the front bumper has been damaged
(version with radar),
-
i
f the brake lamps are not working.
Driving
218
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 action.
The driver can take back control of the vehicle
at any time by sharply turning the steering
wheel and/or pressing the accelerator pedal.
The point at which braking is triggered
may be adjusted depending on the driving
actions of the driver, such as movement
of the steering wheel or actions at the
accelerator pedal.
Operation of the function 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. With a manual gearbox, in the event of
automatic emergency braking until the
vehicle comes to a complete stop, the
engine may stall.
With an automatic gearbox, in the event
of automatic emergency braking until the
vehicle comes to a complete stop, keep
the brake pedal pressed down to prevent
the vehicle from starting off again.
Specific conditions for operation
The vehicle's speed must be between 3 mph
a nd 53 mph (5 km/h and 85 km/h) (versions
with camera alone) or 85
mph (140 km/h)
(versions with camera and radar) when a
moving vehicle is detected.
The vehicle's speed must not exceed 50
mph
(80 km/h) when a stopped vehicle is detected.
The vehicle's speed must not exceed 37
mph
(60
km/h) when a pedestrian is detected.
The ESC system must not be defective.
The DCS system must not be deactivated.
All passenger seat belts must be fastened.
Driving at a steady speed on roads with few
bends is required. After an impact, the function automatically
stops operating. Consult a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop to have the
system checked.
Deactivation / Activation
By default, the system is automatically
activated at every engine start.
The system can be deactivated or activated via
the vehicle settings menu.
Deactivation of the system is
signalled by the illumination of this
indicator lamp, accompanied by the

fitted with a towbar installed in line with
the manufacturer's recommendations).
The parking sensors are deactivated while the
Park Assist system is measuring a space.
For more information on Park Assist , refer to
the corresponding section.
Operating fault
If a fault occurs when shifting
to reverse, this warning lamp
comes on in the instrument panel,
accompanied by a message and an
audible signal (short beep).
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked.
High pressure jet wash
When washing your vehicle, direct the
lance at least 30
cm away from the
sensors. In bad or wintry weather, 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.
Visiopark 1 - Visiopark 2
With the engine running, these systems allow
two views of your vehicle’s close surroundings
to be displayed on the touch screen using one
camera for Visiopark 1, and two cameras for
Visiopark 2.

Visiopark 2
The vehicle has a camera at the front, fitted
in the grille, and a camera at the rear, located
close to the tailgate opening control.
Using these cameras, the system displays
the vehicle's near surroundings in the touch
screen, offering views from the rear of the
vehicle (rear vision), when reverse gear is
engaged and views from the front of the vehicle
(front vision), when the gearbox is in neutral or
a gear is engaged.
Rear vision
If a trailer or a bicycle carrier is fitted to
the towbar, the zone behind the vehicle on
the top view goes dark.
The surroundings are reconstructed by the
front camera only.
The rear vision views are similar to those for
the Visiopark 1.
For more information on Visiopark 1 , refer to
the corresponding section.
The system activates automatically when

180° view
The 180° view facilitates the exit from of a
parking bay in forward gear, making it possible
to see the approach of vehicles, pedestrians
and cyclists.
This view is not recommended for carrying out
a complete manoeuvre.
It is made up of 3 areas: left A, centre B and
right C .
This view is available only from the view
selection menu.
Park Assist
This system provides active assistance with
parking: it detects a parking space then
operates the steering system to park in this
space.
It operates the steering while the driver
manages the accelerator, brakes, gears and
clutch (manual gearbox). During phases of
entry into and exit from a parking space, the
system provides visual and audible information
to the driver in order to make the manoeuvres
safe. It may be necessary to move for wards
and backwards more than once.
The driver can take control at any time by
gripping the steering wheel.
This manoeuvring assistance system
cannot, in any circumstances, replace the
need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
The driver must remain in control of their
vehicle ensuring that the space remains
clear throughout the manoeuvre.
In some circumstances, the sensors may
not detect small obstacles located in their
blind spots.
The Park Assist system cannot work with
the engine off. The Park Assist system provides assistance for
the following manoeuvres:
B.
Exit from a parallel parking space.
A.
Entry into a parallel parking space.
