Driving

Using a camera located at the top of the
windscreen, the system identifies lane markings
and steers the vehicle inside this lane to keep it
in the lateral position chosen by the driver.
This function is primarily suitable for driving on
motorways and main roads.
Conditions for operation
– Adaptive Cruise Control active.
– T raffic lane marked out by lines on both sides.
–

ESC system operational.
–


ASR system activated.
–


No trailer detected.
–


No 'space-saver' spare wheel in use.
–


V
ehicle not subject to strong lateral g-forces.
–

Direction indicators not activated.
Activation/Deactivation



► With the Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop &
Go function activated, press this button.
The action is confirmed by:
–

The indicator lamp in the button lighting up
green.
–


The following symbol being displayed on the
instrument panel.
The colour of the symbol on the instrument panel
depends on the operating status of the system:
(grey colour)
One or more operating conditions is not
met; the system is paused.
(green colour)
All operating conditions are met; the
system is active.
(orange colour)
System malfunction.
If the driver no longer wishes to use the system
for a while, they can deactivate it by pressing the
button again.
The indicator lamp in the button goes off and the
symbol disappears from the instrument panel.
The system status is saved when the ignition is switched off.
Cruise control
The driver must hold the steering wheel properly.
When cruise control is activated, the symbol is
displayed in green: by small steering actions,
the system directs the vehicle and keeps it in the
position chosen by the driver, in the traffic lane.
This position is not necessarily the centre of the
lane.
The driver can feel movements in the steering
wheel.
The driver can change the position of the vehicle
at any time, by turning the steering wheel.
When the driver feels that the vehicle’s position
is appropriate, whilst keeping hands on the
steering wheel, they must release the pressure
to let the system resume control of the steering,
but the vehicle will not be automatically centred
within the lane.
Pausing/Suspending the
system
The driver must act promptly if they believe that the traffic conditions or the
state of the road surface require their
intervention, by moving the steering wheel to
temporarily suspend system operation. Any
action on the brake pedal that results in cruise
control being paused will also cause the
system to be paused.
If the system detects that the driver is not
holding the wheel firmly enough, it
triggers a series of gradual alerts and then
deactivates itself if there is no response from
the driver.

accompanied by an alert message and an
audible signal.
Active Lane Keeping Assistance
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids .
Using a camera located at the top of the
windscreen to identify lane markings on the road
and at the edges of the road (depending on
version), the system corrects the trajectory of the
vehicle while alerting the driver if it detects a risk
of unintentionally crossing a line or hard shoulder
(depending on version).
This system is particularly useful on motorways
and main roads.


Conditions for operation
– Vehicle speed between 40 and 112 mph (65
and 180 km/h).
–

Road marked with a central dividing line.
–


Steering wheel held in both hands.
–


Direction indicators not activated.
–


ESC system activated and operational.
The system helps the driver only if there is a risk of the vehicle unintentionally
wandering from the lane it is being driven in. It
does not manage the safe driving distance,
vehicle speed or brakes.
The driver must hold the steering wheel with
both hands in a way that allows control to
be maintained in circumstances where the
system is not able to intervene (for example, if
the central dividing line disappears).
Operation
Once the system identifies a risk of the vehicle
involuntarily crossing one of the lane markings
detected or a lane limit (e.g. grass border), it
makes the necessary trajectory correction to
return the vehicle to its initial path.
The driver will notice a turning movement of the
steering wheel.
This warning lamp flashes during trajectory correction.
The driver can prevent the correction by keeping a firm grip on the wheel (during
an avoiding manoeuvre, for example).
The correction is interrupted immediately if
the direction indicators are operated.

120
Driving

While the direction indicators are on and for
a few seconds after switching them off, the system considers that any change of trajectory is
intentional and no correction is triggered during
this period.
However, with the Blind Spot Monitoring System
system activated, if the driver starts changing
lanes and another vehicle is detected in the
vehicle's blind spot, the system will correct the
trajectory even though the direction indicators
are on.
For more information on the
Blind Spot
Monitoring System , refer to the corresponding
section.
If the system detects that the driver is not
holding the wheel firmly enough during
an automatic correction of trajectory, it
interrupts the correction. An alert is triggered
to encourage the driver to take back control of
the vehicle.

"Hold the wheel" –

If, while correcting the trajectory
, the system determines
that the correction will not be enough and that a solid line
will be crossed (orange line): the driver is warned that they
must provide additional trajectory adjustment.
– If the steering wheel is not held properly , an audible
warning sounds, accompanied by a message, until
the trajectory correction is completed or the driver has
grasped the steering wheel correctly.
The duration of audible warnings will increase if multiple
corrections are performed in quick succession. The
warning will become continuous, persisting until the driver
responds.
Operating limits
The system goes into standby automatically in
the following cases: –

ESC deactivated or operation triggered,
–
speed below 40 mph (65 km/h) or greater than
112 mph (180 km/h),–

electrical connection of a trailer
,

122
Driving
– use of the "space-saver" spare wheel detected
(as detection is not immediate, deactivation of
the system is recommended),
–

dynamic driving style detected, pressure on
the brake or accelerator pedal,
–


driving where there are no lane markings,
–


activation of the direction indicators,
–


crossing the inside line on a bend,
–

Malfunction
In the event of a system
malfunction, these warning lamps
come on on the instrument panel, accompanied
by an onscreen message and an audible signal.
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Blind Spot Monitoring
System
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids .


This system includes sensors, placed on the
sides of the bumpers, and warns the driver of
the potentially dangerous presence of another
vehicle (car, truck, motorcycle) in the blind spot
areas of their vehicle (areas hidden
from the
driver's field of vision).


The warning is given by a fixed warning lamp
that appears in the door mirror on the side in
question:
–

immediately
, when being overtaken;
–

after a delay of about one second, when
overtaking a vehicle slowly

.
Activation / Deactivation
It is set via the Driving / Vehicle touch
screen menu.

The system is automatically deactivated after the use of certain "space-saver"
type spare wheels is detected (smaller
diameter).
The system is automatically deactivated
after detection of a fault with the brake pedal
switch or with at least two brake lamps.
It is possible that warnings are not given,
are given too late or seem unjustified.
The driver must always stay in control of the
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
This function warns the driver that their vehicle is
at risk of a collision with the vehicle in front, or a
pedestrian or cyclist present in their traffic lane.
Modifying the alert trigger threshold
This trigger threshold determines the sensitivity
with which the function warns of the risk of
collision.
The threshold is set via the Driving / Vehicle touch screen
menu.
►

Select one of the three pre-defined
thresholds:
–


"Distant".
–

“

Normal".
–

“

Close".
The last threshold selected is memorised when
the ignition is switched off.
Operation
Depending on the degree of risk of collision
detected by the system and the alert trigger
threshold chosen by the driver, several different
levels of alert may be triggered and displayed in
the instrument panel.
The system takes account of the vehicle
dynamics, the speed of your vehicle and the one
in front, the environmental conditions and the
operation of the vehicle (actions on the pedals,
the steering wheel, etc.) to trigger the alert at the
best moment.
Level 1 (orange): visual alert only,
indicating that the vehicle in front is very
close.
The message
"Vehicle close" is displayed.
Level 2 (red): visual and audible alert,
indicating that a collision is imminent.
The message "Brake! " is displayed.
Level 3: in some cases, a vibration alert in the
form of micro-braking can be given, confirming
the risk of collision.
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 not displayed
when there is a stationary obstacle or when
the "Close" trigger threshold has been
selected.
