If the cruise control malfunctions,
dashes are displayed instead of
the cruise control speed setting.
If this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an alert message and an
audible signal, this confirms the malfunction.
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Lane positioning assist
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids .
Only available on versions with electric
automatic gearbox (Hybrid).
Using a camera located at the top of the
windscreen, the system identifies lane markings
and steers the vehicle inside this lane, keeping 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/CDS systems 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, which
suspends the function. The driver positions the
vehicle where they wish to in the lane. When
the driver feels that the vehicle’s position is
appropriate, they maintain it until the function
is reactivated. The system regains control by
regulating on the new defined position.
144
Driving
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.
If the function is suspended due to the
prolonged release of the force holding
the steering wheel, you must reactivate it by
pressing the button again.
Automatic pause
– Triggering of the ESC.
– Prolonged failure to detect one of the lane limit
markings. In this case, the
Active lane departure
warning function can take over, and the system will reactivate itself once the operating conditions
are met again.
In response to action by the driver:
suspension
– Activation of the direction indicators.
– T ravelling outside the lane limits.
–
T
oo tight a grip on the steering wheel or
dynamic action on the steering wheel.
–
Action on the brake pedal (resulting in a pause
until cruise control is reactivated) or accelerator
pedal (suspension for as long as the pedal is
depressed).
–
Pausing of the cruise control.
–
Deactivation of the DSC/ASR systems.

Driving
Operation
Once the system identifies a risk of the vehicle
involuntarily crossing one of the lane markings
detected, it makes the correction to the trajectory
required 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 if the direction
indicators are operated.

Lane Departure Warning
System
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids .
This system, using a camera which recognises
solid or broken lines, detects the involuntary
crossing of longitudinal traffic lane markings on
the ground.
If the driver's attention drops and the speed
is higher than 37 mph (60
km/h), the system
triggers a warning if there is an unexpected
change of direction.
This system is particularly useful on motorways
and main roads.
Activation/Deactivation
This function cannot be deactivated on versions
without a touch screen.
This function is set via the Driving /
V ehicle touch screen menu.
The status of the system stays in the memory
when switching off the ignition.
Detection

by the Service warning lamp coming on and the
display of a message.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked.
The system may suffer temporary interference in certain weather conditions
(rain, hail, etc.).
In particular, driving on a wet surface or
moving from a dry area to a wet area can
cause false alerts (for example, the presence
of a fog of water droplets in the blind spot
angle is interpreted as a vehicle).
In bad or wintry weather, ensure that the
sensors are not covered by mud, ice or snow.
Take care not to cover the warning zone in
the door mirrors or the detection zones on the
front and rear bumpers with adhesive labels
or other objects; they may hamper correct
operation of the system.
Active Blind Spot Monitoring System
In addition to the fixed warning lamp in the door
mirror on the side in question, a correction of
trajectory will be felt if you attempt to cross
a lane marking with the direction indicator
activated, to help you avoid a collision.
This system is the combination of the Active
Lane Keeping Assistance and Blind Spot
Monitoring System. These two functions must be activated and in
operation.
The speed of the vehicle must be between 40
and 87
mph (65 and 140 km/h).
These functions are especially suitable for
driving on motorways and main roads.
For more information on the Active Lane
Keeping Assistance and Blind Spot
Monitoring System , refer to the corresponding
sections.
Parking sensors
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids .
