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.

Driving aids camera
This camera and its associated functions
may be impaired or not work if the windscreen
area in front of the camera is dirty, misty,
frosty, covered with snow, damaged or
masked by a sticker.
On versions with camera alone, this message
indicates to you that the camera is obstructed:
"Driving aids camera: visibility limited, see
user guide".
In humid and cold weather, demist the
windscreen regularly.
Poor visibility (inadequate street lighting,
heavy rain, thick fog, snowfall), dazzle
(headlamps of an oncoming vehicle, low sun,
reflections on a damp road, leaving a tunnel,
alternating shade and light) can also impair
detection performance.
In the event of a windscreen replacement,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to recalibrate the camera;
otherwise, the operation of the associated
driving aids may be disrupted.
Other cameras
The images from the camera(s)
displayed on the touch screen or on the
instrument panel may be distorted by the
relief.
In the presence of areas in shade, or in
conditions of bright sunlight or inadequate
lighting, the image may be darkened and with
lower contrast.
Obstacles may appear further away than they
actually are.
Sensors
The operation of the sensors as well as
the associated functions may be disturbed
by sound interference such as that emitted
by noisy vehicles and machinery (e.g. lorries,
pneumatic drills), by the accumulation of
snow or dead leaves on the road or in the
event of damaged bumpers and mirrors.
When reverse gear is engaged, an audible
signal (long beep) indicates that the sensors
may be dirty.
A front or rear impact to the vehicle can
upset the sensors’ settings, which is not
always detected by the system: distance
measurements may be distorted.
The sensors do not systematically detect
obstacles that are too low (pavements, studs)
or too thin (trees, posts, wire fences).
Certain obstacles located in the sensors’ blind
spots may not be detected or may no longer
be detected during the manoeuvre.
Certain materials (fabrics) absorb sound
waves: pedestrians may not be detected.
Maintenance
Clean the bumpers and door mirrors and
the field of vision of the cameras regularly.

Drive Assist Plus
Only available on versions with electric
automatic gearbox (Hybrid).
This system automatically adjusts the speed and
corrects the trajectory, using the Adaptive Cruise
Control with Stop & Go function in conjunction
with the Lane Positioning Assist.
These two functions must be activated and in
operation.
This system is especially suitable for driving on
motorways and main roads.
For more information on Adaptive Cruise
Control and Lane Positioning Assist, refer to
the corresponding sections.
The system assists the driver by acting on the steering, acceleration and braking,
within the limits of the laws of physics and the
capabilities of the vehicle. Certain road
infrastructure elements or vehicles present on
the road may not be properly seen or may be
poorly interpreted by the camera and radar,
resulting in an unexpected change in
direction, a lack of steering correction and/or
inappropriate management of acceleration or
braking.
Adaptive Cruise Control
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids and to
Cruise control - particular recommendations.

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.
–

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.

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.
