DRIVING ADVICE, ECO-DRIVING (5/5)
Advice on use
– Favour the ECO mode.
– Electricity is fuel; switch off all the electrical components which are
not really needed. However (safety
first), keep your lights on when the
visibility is bad (“see and be seen”).
– Use the air vents. Driving with the windows open at 60 mph (100 km/h)
will increase fuel consumption by
4%.
– Never fill the fuel tank right to the brim to avoid overflow.
– In vehicles fitted with air conditio-
ning, it is normal to observe an in-
crease in fuel consumption (espe-
cially in urban conditions) when it is
used. For vehicles fitted with manual
air conditioning, switch off the system
when it is not required.
Recommendations for reducing
consumption and therefore help-
ing to preserve the environment:
If the vehicle has been parked in the
sun, open the doors for a few mo-
ments to let the hot air escape before
starting the engine.
– Do not leave an empty roof rack fitted to the vehicle.
– It is better to fit a trailer for bulky ob- jects.
– When towing a caravan, fit a wind deflector and adjust it carefully.
– Avoid using the car for door-to-door calls (short journeys with long waits
in between) because the engine
never reaches its normal operating
temperature.
Tyres
– An underinflated tyre increases fuel consumption.
– Opt for the highest speed pressure or the pressure recommended to op-
timise fuel consumption indicated
on edge of the driver’s door (please
refer to the information on “Tyre infla-
tion pressure” in Section 4).
– The use of non-recommended tyres can increase fuel consumption.

ACTIVE EMERGENCY BRAKING (4/11)
Active emergency braking
This function is an additional driving aid. This function is not under any circumstances intended to replace the due\
care
and attention of the driver, who should at all times be in control of the vehicle. The triggering of this function may be
delayed or prevented when the system detects clear signs of control of t\
he vehicle by the driver (action on the steer-
ing wheel, pedals etc.).
System servicing/repairs
– In the event of an impact, the radar-camera or radar alignment may be ch\
anged, and its operation may consequently be af- fected. Deactivate the function, then consult an authorised dealer.
– Any work in the area where the radar-camera or radar are located (repai\
rs, replacements, windscreen modifications etc.) must be carried out by a qualified professional.
– Fitting accessories which may block the radar is prohibited (bull \
bars etc.).
Only an authorised dealer is qualified to service the system.
In the event of system disturbance
Some conditions can disturb or damage the operation of the system, such \
as:
– a complex environment (metal bridge, tunnel etc.);
– poor weather conditions (snow, hail, black ice etc.);
Risk of inadvertent braking.

ACTIVE EMERGENCY BRAKING (10/11)
Active emergency braking
This function is an additional driving aid. This function is not under any circumstances intended to replace the due\
care
and attention of the driver, who should at all times be in control of the vehicle. The triggering of this function may be
delayed or prevented when the system detects clear signs of control of t\
he vehicle by the driver (action on the steer-
ing wheel, pedals etc.).

rs, replacements, windscreen modifications etc.) must be carried out by a qualified professional.

In the event of system disturbance
Some conditions can disturb or damage the operation of the system, such \
as:
– a complex environment (metal bridge, tunnel etc.);
– poor weather conditions (snow, hail, black ice etc.);
– poor visibility (night, fog etc.);
– poor contrast between the object (vehicle, pedestrian etc.) and the su\
rrounding area (e.g. pedestrian dressed in white lo- cated in a snowy area etc.);
– being dazzled (glaring sun, lights of vehicles travelling in the opposi\
te direction etc.);
– windscreen obscured (by dirt, ice, snow, condensation etc.).
Risk of inadvertent braking.
2.49
ACTIVE EMERGENCY BRAKING (11/11)
Limitation of the system operation
– A vehicle travelling in the opposite direction will not trigger any alert\
or any action on the system operation.
– The radar-camera area on the windscreen should be kept clean and free of\
any modifications in order to ensure the
proper operation of the system.
– The system cannot respond to small vehicles such as motorbikes or bicycl\
es as effectively as to other vehicles.
– The system may not operate properly when the road surface is slippery (\
rain, snow, black ice etc.).
– To ensure correct operation, System B needs to distinguish the complete outline of the pedestrian. So the sys\
tem cannot
detect:
- Pedestrians in the darkness or in poor lighting conditions;
- Partially visible pedestrians;
- Pedestrians less than approximately 80cm tall;
- Pedestrian carrying large objects;
Deactivating the function
You must disable the function if:
– the brake lights are not functioning;
– the area of the radar-camera has been damaged (on the windscreen side o\
r the interior rear-view mirror side);
– the vehicle is being towed (breakdowns);
– the windscreen is cracked or distorted (do not carry out repairs on thi\
s area of the windscreen; have it changed by an Authorised Dealer).
Halting the function
You can halt the active braking function at any time by tapping the accel\
erator pedal or by turning the steering wheel in a avo id-
ance manoeuvre.
In the event of the system behaving abnormally, deactivate it and consult an authorised dealer.
2.58
Operating faults
If the system detects a fault, the mes-
sage “Check blind spot alert” is dis-
played on the instrument panel. Consult
an authorised dealer.
Note: When the engine is started, the
indicator light 6 (display B) flashes
three times. It is normal.
– The system’s detection
range operates according
to a standard lane width. If
you are driving in wide traf-
fic lanes, the system might not
be able to detect a vehicle in the
blind spot.
– The system might be disrupted momentarily if it is exposed to
strong electromagnetic waves
(as beneath high-tension power
lines) or to very poor weather
conditions (heavy rain, snow,
etc.). Remain aware of driving
conditions.
There is a risk of accidents.
BLIND SPOT WARNING (4/4)
Because sensors have
been installed in the bump-
ers, any work (repairs, re-
placements, touching up of
paintwork) must be carried out by a
qualified professional.

Conditions for non-function
– If the object is not moving;
– if traffic is heavy;
– the road is winding;
– if front and rear sensors both detect objects at the same time (e.g. when
passing an articulated lorry).

ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL (7/8)
This function is an additional driving aid. This function is not under any circumstances intended to replace the due\
care
and attention of the driver, who should at all times be in control of the vehicle.
The driver should always adapt their speed to the traffic conditions, regardless of the system indications.
The system should under no circumstances be taken to be an obstacle dete\
ctor or an anti-collision system.
System servicing/repairs
– In the event of an impact, the radar-camera alignment may be changed, an\
d its operation may consequently be affected. Deactivate the function and consult an authorised dealer.
– Any work in the area where the radar-camera is located (repairs, replac\
ements, windscreen modifications etc.) must be car- ried out by a qualified professional.
Only an authorised dealer is qualified to service the system.
Deactivating the function
You must disable the function if:
– the brake lights are not functioning;
– the area of the radar-camera has been damaged (on the windscreen side o\
r the interior rear-view mirror side);
– the vehicle is being towed (breakdowns);
– traffic is heavy;
– the vehicle is travelling in a tunnel;
– the vehicle is travelling on a windy road;
– the windscreen is cracked or distorted (do not carry out windscreen rep\
airs in this area; have it changed by an Authorised Dealer);
– the vehicle is travelling on a slippery road or in poor weather conditio\
ns (fog, snow, rain, side winds etc.).
In the event of the system behaving abnormally, deactivate it and consult an authorised dealer.
