6Drive 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.
This system automatically maintains the speed 
of your vehicle at a value which you set (speed 
setting), while keeping a safe distance from the 
vehicle in front (target vehicle), and which has 
been set beforehand by the driver. The system 
automatically manages the acceleration and 
deceleration of the vehicle.
With the Stop function , the system manages 
the braking until the vehicle comes to a complete 
stop.
With the Stop
  &   Go function, the system 
manages the braking until the vehicle comes to a 
complete stop and the restarting of the vehicle.
The brake lamps come on if the vehicle  is slowed down by the system.
It can be dangerous to drive if the brake 
lamps are not in perfect working order.
 
 
To do so, it has a camera located at the top of 
the windscreen and a radar located in the front 
bumper.
Primarily designed for driving on main 
roads and motorways, this system only 
works with moving vehicles driving in the 
same direction as your vehicle.
If the driver operates a direction indicator 
to overtake a slower vehicle, the cruise 
control allows the vehicle to temporarily 
approach the vehicle in front to assist the 
overtaking manoeuvre, without ever 
exceeding the speed setting.
Some vehicles present on the road may 
not be properly seen or may be poorly 
interpreted by the camera and/or radar (e.g. a 
lorry), which may lead to a poor assessment 
of the distances and lead to the vehicle 
inappropriately accelerating or braking.

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.

Driving
Malfunction
In the event of a fault with the system, you 
are alerted by the fixed illumination of this 
warning lamp, accompanied by the display of a 
message and an audible signal.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified 
workshop to have the system checked.
Distraction detection
Refer to the General recommendations on the 
use of driving and manoeuvring aids .
Take a break in case of feeling tired or at least 
every 2 hours.
Depending on version, the function comprises 
either the "Driver Attention Alert" system alone 
or combined with the "Driver Attention Alert by 
camera" system.
These systems are in no way designed  to keep the driver awake or to prevent 
the driver from falling asleep at the wheel. 
It is the driver’s responsibility to stop if feeling 
tired.
Activation / Deactivation
It is set via the vehicle 
configuration menu.
The state of the system stays in the memory 
when the ignition is switched off.
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 
speed 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): visual alert only, 
signalling that the vehicle in front is very 
close.
The message "
Vehicle close" is displayed.
Level 2 (red): visual 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.
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 the driver 
presses the brake pedal.
Active Safety Brake 
 
This function, also called automatic emergency 
braking, intervenes 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 
collision where the driver fails to react.
Operation
The system operates under the following 
conditions:
–
 
The vehicle's speed does not exceed 37 mph 
(60 km/h) when a pedestrian is detected.
– The vehicle's speed does not exceed 50 mph 
(80 km/h) when a stationary vehicle is detected.
–
 
The vehicle's speed is between 6 mph and 
53 mph (10
  km/h and 85 km/h) (versions with 
camera alone) or 87 mph (140 km/h) (versions 
with camera and radar) 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.
The driver can maintain control of the  vehicle at any time by sharply turning the 
steering wheel and/or pressing the 
accelerator pedal.
Operation of the function may be felt by 
slight vibration in the brake pedal.
If the vehicle comes to a complete stop, the 
automatic braking is maintained for 1 to 2 
seconds.

Driving
6Obstacles may appear further away than 
they actually are.
It is important to monitor the sides of the 
vehicle during the manoeuvre, using the 
mirrors.
Parking sensors also provide additional 
information about the area around the vehicle.
180° view 
 
The 180° view facilitates reversing out of a 
parking space, making it possible to see the 
approach of vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists.
This view is not recommended for carrying out a 
complete manoeuvre.
It features 3 areas: left A, centre B and right C. This view is only available via the view selection 
menu.
Visiopark 2
The vehicle has a camera at the front
, fitted in 
the grille, and a camera at the rear, located close 
to the tailgate opening control.
Using these cameras, the system displays the 
vehicle's near surroundings on the touch screen, 
offering views from the rear of the vehicle (rear 
vision) when reverse gear is engaged and views 
from the front of the vehicle (front vision) when 
the gearbox is in neutral or a gear is engaged.
Rear vision 
 
The system activates automatically when 
reverse gear is engaged.
The system is deactivated:
–
 
automatically above about 6 mph (10
   km/h).
–
 
when shifting out of reverse (the rear view 
image is replaced by the front view image after 
7 seconds).
– by pressing the white arrow in the upper-left 
corner of the touch screen.
If a trailer or a bicycle carrier is fitted to 
the towball, the area behind the vehicle 
on the view from above goes dark.
The surroundings are reconstructed by the 
front camera only.
The rear vision views are similar to those for the 
Visiopark 1.
For more information on the  Visiopark 1, refer to 
the corresponding section.
Front and rear vision 
 
With the engine running and the speed 
below 12 mph (20   km/h), the system is 
activated via the Driving
  / Vehicle touch screen 
menu:
►
 
Select "
 Panoramic visual aid".
AUTO mode is displayed by default, with front 
vision, if the gearbox is in neutral or with a

Driving
6180° view 
 
The 180° view assists with exiting from a parking 
space in forward gear, making it possible to 
see the approach of vehicles, pedestrians and 
cyclists.
This view is not recommended for carrying out a 
complete manoeuvre.
It consists of 3 areas: left A, centre B and right 
C.
This view is available only from the view 
selection menu.
Park Assist
Refer to the General recommendations on the 
use of driving and manoeuvring aids .
This system provides active parking assistance: 
it detects a parking space then operates the 
steering system to park in this space.
With a 
manual gearbox, the driver manages the 
accelerator, brakes, gears and clutch.
With an automatic gearbox (EAT6/EAT8), the 
driver manages the accelerator, brakes and 
gears.
During phases of entry into and exit from a 
parking space, the system provides visual and 
audible information to the driver in order to make 
the manoeuvres safe. Several forward and 
reverse manoeuvres may be required.
At any time, the driver can take back control by 
holding the steering wheel.
 
 
The Park Assist system provides assistance for 
the following manoeuvres:
A. Entry into a "parallel" parking space
B. Exit from a "parallel" parking space
C. Entry into a "bay" parking space
The Park Assist system cannot operate 
with the engine switched off.
When Park Assist is activated, it prevents 
Stop & Start from going into STOP mode. In 
STOP mode, activation of Park Assist restarts 
the engine.
The Park Assist system takes control of  the steering for a maximum of 4 
manoeuvring cycles. It is deactivated after 
these 4 cycles. If the vehicle is not positioned 
correctly, take back control to complete the 
manoeuvre.
The sequence of manoeuvres and the  driving instructions are displayed in the 
instrument panel.
The assistance is activated: the display  of this symbol and a speed limit 
indicate that the steering manoeuvres are 
controlled by the system: do not touch the 
steering wheel.
The assistance is deactivated: the  display of this symbol indicates that the 
steering manoeuvres are no longer controlled 
by the system: take over the steering.
Activation of Park Assist deactivates the  Blind Spot Monitoring System.
The Parking sensors function is not available during parking space 
measurement. It intervenes later when 
manoeuvring to warn that the vehicle is 
approaching an obstacle: the audible signal
