Driving
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 interfere with the
operation of the radar.
audible signal and, depending on equipment, the
display of a message.
►
Reduce speed immediately
, avoid excessive
steering movements and avoid sudden braking.
►
Stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do
so.
The loss of pressure detected does not always cause visible bulging of the tyre.
Do not rely on just a visual check.
►
Using a compressor
, such as the one in
the temporary puncture repair kit, check the
pressures of the four tyres when cold.
►
If it is not possible to make this check
immediately
, drive carefully at reduced speed.
►
In the event of a puncture, use the
temporary puncture repair kit or the spare wheel
(depending on equipment).
The alert is kept active until the system is reinitialised.
Reinitialisation
The system must be reinitialised after any
adjustment to the pressure of one or more tyres,
and after changing one or more wheels.
Before reinitialising the system, make
sure that the pressures of the four tyres
are correct for the conditions of use of the
vehicle and conform to the values written on
the tyre pressure label.
Check the pressures of the four tyres before
performing the reinitialisation.
The system does not advise if a pressure is
incorrect at the time of reinitialisation.

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.

132
Driving
For the system to operate correctly when
you change country, the units for speed in
the instrument panel must be those for the
country you are driving in.
The automatic reading of road signs is a driving aid system and does not always
display speed limits correctly.
The speed limit signs present on the road
always take priority over the display by the
system.
The system is designed to detect signs that
conform to the Vienna Convention on road
signs.
Specific speed limits, such as those for
heavy goods vehicles, are not displayed.
The display of the speed limit in the
instrument panel is updated as you pass
a speed limit sign intended for cars (light
vehicles).
Activation / Deactivation
By default, the system is automatically activated
at every engine start.
It is set via the vehicle
configuration menu.
When washing your vehicle at high pressure,
direct the spray from at least 3M = cm away
from the radar, sensors and cameras.
Mats
The use of mats not approved by
PEUGEOT may interfere with the operation of
the speed limiter or cruise control.
To avoid any risk of jamming the pedals:
►
ensure that the mat is secured correctly
,
►
never fit one mat on top of another
.
Units of speed
Ensure that the units of speed displayed
on the instrument panel (mph or km/h) are
those for the country you are driving in.
If this is not the case, when the vehicle is
stationary, set the display to the required
units of speed so that it complies with what is
authorised locally.
In case of doubt, contact a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop.
Memorising speeds
This function, used only for the speed limiter
and programmable cruise control, lets you
save speed settings that will subsequently be
proposed for the purpose of configuring these
two systems.
You can memorise multiple speed settings for
each of the two systems.
By default, some speed settings are already
memorised.
As a safety measure, the driver must only change speed settings when stationary.
Changing a speed setting
Speed settings can be activated,
deactivated, selected and changed in the
Driving
/ Vehicle touch screen menu.
"MEM" button
With this button, you can select a memorised
speed setting to use with the speed limiter or the
programmable cruise control.
For more information on the Speed limiter
or Cruise control, refer to the corresponding
section.
Speed Limit Recognition
and Recommendation
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids .
This system displays the maximum authorised
speed in the instrument panel, according to
the speed limits in the country in which you are
driving, using:
–
Speed limit signs detected by the camera.
–
Speed limit details from the navigation system
mapping.
You should update your navigation mapping regularly in order to receive
accurate speed limit information from the
system.
The units for the speed limit (mph or km/h) depend on the country you are
driving in.
This should be taken into account so that you
observe the speed limit.
