Stop & Start
The Stop & Start system puts the engine
t emporarily into standby – STOP mode – during
stops in traffic (red lights, traffic jams, etc.). The
engine restarts automatically – START mode –
as soon as you want to move off.
The restart takes place instantly, quickly and
silently.
Per fect for urban use, the Stop & Start system
reduces fuel consumption and exhaust
emissions as well as the noise level when
stationary.
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
This indicator lamp comes on in the
instrument panel and the engine goes
into standby automatically: -
W
ith a manual gearbox
, at speeds below
2 mph (3 km/h) (with BlueHDi 130 S&S
engine) or with the vehicle stationary (other
engines), when you place the gear selector
in neutral and release the clutch pedal.
- With an automatic gearbox , vehicle
stationary, when you press the brake pedal
or place the gear selector lever in position N .
Stop & Star t time counter
(minutes/seconds or hours/
minutes)
A time counter calculates the time spent in STOP
mode during a journey.
It resets to zero every time the ignition is switched on.
For your comfort, during parking
manoeuvres, STOP mode is not available
for a few seconds after coming out of
reverse gear.
The Stop & Start system does not modify
the vehicle's functions, such as, for
example, braking, power steering, etc.
A slight delay between the vehicle
stopping and the engine cutting out may
be noticed.
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition.
Special cases: STOP mode not
available
STOP mode does not activate, mainly when:
-
t he vehicle is on a steep slope (rising or
falling),
-

Active Blind Spot
Monitoring System
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:
- B lind Spot Detection,
-
A
ctive Lane Keeping Assistance.
The speed of the vehicle must be between 40
and 87
mph (65 and 140 km/h) inclusive.
Parking sensors
This system cannot in any circumstances replace
the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
Rear parking sensors
The system is switched on by engaging reverse
g e a r.
This is confirmed by an audible signal.
The system is switched off when you come out
of reverse gear.
Audible assistance Visual assistance
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: post,
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.The proximity information is given by an
intermittent audible signal, the frequency of which
increases as the vehicle approaches the obstacle.
When the distance between the vehicle and
the obstacle becomes less than about thirty centimetres, the sound signal becomes
continuous.
The sound emitted by the speaker (right or left)
locates the obstacle in relation to the vehicle, in
front or behind.
Front parking sensors
In addition to the rear parking sensors, the
front parking sensors are triggered when an
obstacle is detected in front and the speed of
the vehicle is still below 6
mph (10 km/h).
The front parking sensors are interrupted if
the vehicle stops for more than three seconds
in for ward gear, if an obstacle is no longer
detected or when the speed of the vehicle
exceeds 6
mph (10 km/h).
This supplements the audible signal by displaying
bars on the screen that move progressively
nearer to the vehicle. When the obstacle is very
close, the "Danger" symbol is displayed.

Maintenance
recommendations
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.
High pressure jet wash
When washing your vehicle, keep the
lance at least 12 inches (30
cm) away from
the sensors.

Obstacles may appear further away than
they actually are in reality.
It is important to check the sides of the
vehicle during the manoeuvre, using the
mirrors.
The rear parking sensors also provide
information on the vehicle's surroundings.
180° viewRecommendations on care
In bad or wintry weather, ensure that the
sensors and camera are not covered with mud,
ice or snow.
Check the cleanliness of the camera lens
regularly.
If necessary, clean the camera with a soft, dry
cloth.
When washing your vehicle at high pressure,
direct the lance at least 30
cm away from the
camera and parking sensors.
The 180° view facilitates reversing out of a
parking bay, making it possible to see the
approach of vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists.
This view is not recommended for carrying out
a complete manoeuvre. It consists 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.
With a manual gearbox , the driver manages
the accelerator, brakes, gears and clutch.
With an automatic gearbox (EAT6/EAT8) , the
driver manages the accelerator, brakes and
gears. 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.

A.Parallel parking.
B. Exit from a parallel parking space.
C. Bay parking.
During manoeuvring phases, the steering
wheel per forms rapid turns: do not hold
the steering wheel, do not put your hands
between the spokes of the steering wheel.
Watch out for any object that could block
the manoeuvre (loose clothing, scar ves,
ties, etc.) - injury risk!
When the Park Assist is active, it prevents
the Stop & Start going into STOP mode.
In STOP mode, activating Park Assist
restarts the engine. The Park Assist system takes control
of the assistance for a maximum of
4
manoeuvre cycles. The function is
deactivated after these 4 cycles. If you
think that your vehicle is not positioned
correctly, you should then take control of
the steering to carry out the manoeuvre.
The sequence of manoeuvres and the
driving instructions are displayed on the
touch screen.
You should always check the surroundings
of your vehicle before starting a
manoeuvre. The parking sensors function is
not available during parking space
measurement. It intervenes later when
manoeuvring to warn you that your vehicle
is approaching an obstacle: the audible
signal becomes continuous when the
obstacle is less than thirty centimetres
away.
If you have deactivated the parking
sensors, they are automatically
reactivated during assisted parking
manoeuvres.
Activation of Park Assist deactivates the
