system and require the driver to take back
control of the vehicle.
Cases of non- detection by the system:
-
Pe
destrians, some cyclists, animals.
-

S
tationary vehicles (traffic jam, breakdown,
e t c .) .
When the driver must suspend the cruise
control system: Cases where the driver is encouraged to
take back control immediately:
-

E
xcessively sharp deceleration of the
vehicle in front of you.
-

V
ehicles crossing the road lanes.
-

V
ehicles driving in the opposite direction. -

W

your vehicle and the one in front. Be particularly careful:
-
W hen motorcycles are present and
when there are vehicles staggered onto
the traffic lane.
-

W
hen you enter a tunnel or cross
a
bridge.
The cruise control operates by day and
night, in fog or moderate rainfall.
However, it is strongly recommended that
you always keep a
safe distance from
vehicles ahead, according to the driving
conditions, the weather and the road
sur face.
Use the cruise control only where
the driving conditions allow running
at a
constant speed and keeping an
adequate safety distance.
Do not activate the cruise control in an
urban area where pedestrians are likely to
cross the road, in heavy traffic, on winding
or steep roads, on slippery or flooded
roads, when there is snowfall, if the front
bumper or the windscreen is damaged, or
when the brake lamps have failed.
In certain circumstances, it may not
be possible for the speed setting to be
maintained or even attained: loaded
vehicle, ascending a
steep hill, etc.

e
nsure that the mat is secured
c o r r e c t l y,
-

d
o not fit one mat on top of another.
Operation of the radar, located in the
front bumper, may be impaired by the
accumulation of dirt (dust, mud, etc.) or in
certain weather conditions (snow, frost,
e t c .) .
Clean the front bumper regularly.
Clean the windscreen regularly,
particularly the area in front of the
detection camera.
Do not allow snow to accumulate on the
bonnet or roof of the vehicle, as this could
obscure the camera.
Operating fault
In the event of a fault with the cruise
c ontrol, you are alerted by the
illumination of this warning lamp
and the display of a
message in the
instrument panel, accompanied by
an audible signal.
Have the system checked by a
PEUGEOT
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Distance Alert and Active
Safety Brake
This system is a driving aid that includes three
f unctions:
-

D
istance Alert (alert if there is a risk of
collision),
-
I

ntelligent emergency braking assistance,If the front bumper is to be repainted or
touched up, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop. Certain types of
paint could inter fere with the operation of
the radar.

- Active Safety Brake (automatic emergency b r ak ing).
Distance Alert: it warns the driver if their
vehicle is at risk of collision with the vehicle in
front or a
pedestrian present in their traffic lane.
Intelligent emergency braking assistance:
it supplements the braking action taken by the
driver if this is inadequate.
Active Safety Brake : it intervenes following
the alert if the driver does not react quickly
enough and does not operate the vehicle's
brakes.
If the driver fails to act, it contributes
towards avoiding a
collision or limiting
its severity by reducing the speed of your
vehicle.
Activation and operating
conditions
The vehicle has a camera located at the top of
t he windscreen, and depending on the version,
a radar located in the front bumper. 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.

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.
In the following cases, deactivating the system
via the vehicle's configuration menu is advised:

This level of alert is based on the inter-vehicle
time between your vehicle and the vehicle in
front.Level 2 (red) : visual and audible
alert, warning you that a
collision is
imminent.
The message " Brake!" is displayed.
This level of alert is based on the time before
collision. It takes account of the vehicle
dynamics, the speed of your vehicle and the
one in front, the environmental conditions, the
operation of the vehicle (cornering, pedals
pressed, etc.) to trigger the alert at the best
moment.
Where the speed of your vehicle is too
high approaching another vehicle, the first
level of alert may not be displayed: the
level 2
alert may be displayed directly.
Important: alert level 1
is never displayed
when the " Close" trigger threshold has
been selected.
Modifying the alert trigger
threshold
This threshold determines how you wish to be
warned of the presence of a vehicle moving
or stationary in front of you, or a
pedestrian
present in your traffic lane.
The current threshold can be modified via the
vehicle configuration menu.
You can select one of three predefined
thresholds:
-
"Distant ",
-
"Normal ",
-
"Close ".
The last threshold selected is kept in memory
when the ignition is switched off.
Intelligent emergency
braking assistance
If the driver brakes, but not sufficiently to avoid
a collision, this system will supplement the
braking, within the limits of the laws of physics.
This assistance will only be provided if you
press the brake pedal.
Active Safety Brake
If the camera and/or radar have
confirmed the presence of a vehicle
or a
pedestrian, this warning lamp
flashes once the function is acting
on the vehicle's brakes.
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.
This function, also called automatic emergency
braking, aims to reduce the speed of impact or
avoid a

frontal collision by your vehicle where
the driver fails to react.
Using a


camera and, depending on the version,
radar, this function acts on the vehicle's braking
system.
Level 1 (orange)
: visual alert only,
signalling to you that the vehicle in
front is very close.
The message " Vehicle close" is
displayed.
Driving

195
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. 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
display of a
message.
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.),
-
c
amera or radar obstructed (mud, frost,
snow, condensation, etc.).
On versions with camera alone, this
message indicates to you that the camera
is obstructed: " Driving aids camera:
visibility limited, see user guide ".
In these situations, detection performance
may be reduced.
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 87
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

s
tationary 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 faulty.
The DSC system must not be deactivated.
All passenger seat belts must be fastened.
Driving at a
steady speed on roads with few
bends is required.

Clean the windscreen regularly,
particularly the area in front of the camera.
The internal sur face of the windscreen can
also become misted around the camera.
In humid and cold weather, demist the
windscreen regularly.
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
touched up, contact a PEUGEOT dealer
or a
qualified workshop. Certain types of
paint could inter fere with the operation of
the radar.
The system is automatically deactivated
after the use of the "space-saver" type
spare wheel is detected, or if a
fault with
the side brake lamps is detected.Malfunction
In the event of a fault with the
s ystem, you are alerted by the
illumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by the display of
a


message and an audible signal.
Contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked.
Fatigue detection system
It is recommended that you take a break as
s oon 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 section covering your screen in the
"Instruments" section. The state of the system stays in memory when
the ignition is switched off.
Driving time warning
The system triggers an alert once it
detects that the driver has not taken
a
break after two hours of driving at
a
speed above 40 mph (65 km/h).
This alert is issued via the display of
a

message encouraging you to take a break,
accompanied by an audible signal.
If the driver does not follow this advice, the
alert is repeated hourly until the vehicle is
stopped.
The system resets itself if one of the following
conditions is met:
-
