Driving and manoeuvring
aids - General
recommendations
Driving and manoeuvring aids cannot, in
any circumstances, replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
The driver must comply with the Highway
Code, must remain in control of the
vehicle in all circumstances and must be
able to retake control of it at all times. The
driver must adapt the speed to climactic
conditions, traffic and the state of the
road.
It is the driver's responsibility to constantly
check the traffic, to assess the relative
distances and speeds of other vehicles
and to anticipate their movements before
indicating and changing lane.
The systems cannot exceed the limits of
the laws of physics.
Driving aids
You should hold the steering wheel with
both hands, always use the interior and
exterior rear view mirrors, always keep the
feet close to the pedals and take a break
every two hours. Manoeuvring aids
The driver must always check the
surroundings of the vehicle before and
during the whole manoeuvre, in particular
using the mirrors.
Radar
The operation of the radar as well as the
associated functions may be impaired
through the accumulation of dirt (mud,
frost, etc.), in certain difficult weather
conditions (very heavy rain, snow) or if the
bumper is damaged.
If the front bumper is to be repainted,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop; certain types of paint could
inter fere with the operation of the radar.

Brightness adjustment
F With the engine running, adjust the brightness of the information display using
button 3 :
-
t
he "sun" to increase the brightness,
-
t
he "moon" to decrease the brightness. When stationary or while driving, no
objects should be placed around the
blade (or in its recess) so as to not impede
deployment of the blade and its correct
operation.
In certain extreme weather conditions
(rain and/or snow, bright sunshine, etc.)
the head-up display may not be legible or
may suffer temporary interference.
Some sunglasses may hamper reading of
the information.
To clean the blade, use a clean, soft cloth
(such as a spectacles cloth or microfibre
cloth). Do not use a dry or abrasive cloth
or detergent or solvent products as these
could scratch the blade or damage the
anti-reflection coating.
This system operates when the engine is
running, and the settings are stored when
the ignition is switched off.
Memorising speeds
This function allows speed settings to
be stored that will then be offered for
configuration of two systems: speed limiter
or cruise control.

- Active Safety Brake (automatic emergency b r ak ing).
The vehicle has a camera located at the top of
the windscreen and a radar located in the front
b u m p e r. This system does not avoid the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
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.
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 slight
sensation of deceleration.Operating conditions and
limits
The ESC system must not be faulty.
All passenger seat belts must be fastened.
Driving at a steady speed on roads with few
bends is required.
In the following cases, deactivating the system
via the vehicle's configuration menu is advised:
-
t
owing a trailer,
-
c
arrying long objects on roof bars or roof
rack,
-
w
ith snow chains fitted,
-
b

F
ollowing an impact to the windscreen close
to the detection camera.
It is possible that warnings are not given,
are given too late or seem unjustified.
Consequently, always stay in control of
your vehicle and be prepared to react at
any time to avoid an accident. After an impact, the function automatically
stops operating. Contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop to have the
system checked.
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.
Operation
Depending on the degree of risk of collision
detected by the system and the alert threshold
chosen by the driver, several different levels
of alert may be triggered and displayed in the
instrument panel.
They take account of the vehicle dynamics, the
speeds of your vehicle and the one in front, the
environmental conditions and the operation of
the vehicle (cornering, actions on the pedals,
etc.) to trigger the alert at the best moment.
Level
1 (orange colour) : visual
alert only, signalling that the vehicle
in front is very close.
The message " Vehicle close" is
displayed.
Driving
173
Level 2 (red colour): v isual and
audible alert, signalling that a
collision is imminent.
The message " Brake!" is displayed.
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: the level
1 alert is never
displayed for a stationary obstacle or
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 moving
or stationary vehicle in front of you, or a
pedestrian present in your traffic lane.
The current threshold can be
modified in the vehicle configuration
menu using the audio system or the
touch screen.
You can select one of three pre-defined
thresholds:
-
"Distant ",
-
"Normal ", -
"
Close ".
The last threshold selected is memorised 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
Operation
The system operates under the following
conditions:
-
T
he vehicle's speed does not exceed
37 mph (60 km/h) when a pedestrian is
detected.
-
T
he vehicle's speed does not exceed 50
mph (80 km/h) when a stationary vehicle is
detected.
-
T
he vehicle's speed is between 3 mph
and 53
mph (5 km/h and 85 km/h) when a
moving vehicle is detected.
This warning lamp flashes (for about
10
seconds) once the function is
acting on the vehicle's brakes.
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.
With a manual gearbox, in the event of
automatic emergency braking until the vehicle
comes to a complete stop, the engine may stall. This function, also called automatic emergency
braking, inter venes following the alerts if the
driver does not react quickly enough and does
not operate the vehicle's brakes.
It aims to reduce the speed of impact or avoid a
frontal collision by your vehicle where the driver
fails to react.
