Driving
6Active Lane Keeping Assist
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids .


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, 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.
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

Driving
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 again met.
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
ASR.

Malfunction
A system malfunction is indicated by the Service warning lamp
coming on and this (orange) symbol,
accompanied by an alert message and an
audible signal.
Active Safety Brake with Distance Alert and
Intelligent emergency
braking assistance
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids .


This system:
–
warns the driver that their vehicle is at risk of
collision with the vehicle in front, a pedestrian or
,
depending on version, a cyclist.
–

reduces the vehicle's speed to avoid a
collision or limit its severity

.
The system also takes motorcyclists and animals into account; however, animals
below 0.5 m tall and objects on the road are
not necessarily detected.
This system is comprised of three functions:
–

Distance Alert.
–


Intelligent emergency braking assistance.
–


Active Safety Brake (automatic emergency
braking).


The vehicle has a multifunctional camera located
at the top of the windscreen and, depending on
version, a radar located in the front bumper.
This system does not avoid the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
This system is designed to assist the driver
and improve road safety.
It is the driver's responsibility to continuously
monitor the state of the traffic, observing the
driving regulations.
As soon as the system detects a potential obstacle, it prepares the braking
circuit in case automatic braking is needed.
This may cause a slight noise and a slight
sensation of deceleration.
Deactivation / Activation
By default, the system is automatically activated
at every engine start.
It is set via the Driving / Vehicle touch
screen menu.
Deactivation of the system is signalled by
the illumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by the display of a message.
Operating conditions and
limits
ESC system in working order.
ASR system activated.
Seat belts fastened for all passengers.
Stabilised speed on unwinding roads.
In the following cases, deactivating the system
via the vehicle's configuration menu is advised:
– Towing a trailer.
– Carrying long objects on roof bars.
– Vehicles with snow chains fitted.
– Before using an automatic car wash, with the
engine running.
– Before placing the vehicle on a rolling road in
a workshop.
– Towed vehicle, engine running.
– Following impact to the windscreen close to
the detection camera.

131
Driving
6These 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 Driving / Vehicle touch
screen menu.
The state of the system stays in the memory
when the ignition is switched off.
Driver Attention Alert
The system triggers an alert as soon as it detects that the driver has not taken a
break after two hours of driving at a speed above
40 mph (65
km/h).
This alert is issued via the display of a message
encouraging the driver to take a break,
accompanied by an audible signal.
If the driver does not follow this advice, the alert
is repeated hourly until the vehicle is stopped.
The system resets itself if one of the following
conditions is met:
–

With the engine running, the vehicle has been
stationary for more than 15 minutes.
–


The ignition has been switched off for a few
minutes.
–


The driver's seat belt is unfastened and their
door is opened.
As soon as the speed of the vehicle drops below 40 mph (65 km/h), the
system goes into standby.
The driving time is counted again once the
speed is above 40 mph (65
km/h).
Driver Attention Alert by
camera


Using a camera placed at the top of the
windscreen, the system assesses the
driver's level of vigilance, fatigue or distraction by
identifying variations in trajectory compared to
the lane markings.
This system is particularly suited to fast roads
(speed higher than 40 mph (65
km/h)).
At a first-level alert, the driver is warned by the
“Take care! ” message, accompanied by an
audible signal.
After three first-level alerts, the system triggers
a further alert with the message " Dangerous
driving: take a break", accompanied by a more
pronounced audible signal.
In certain driving conditions (poor road
surface or strong winds), the system may
give alerts independent of the driver's level of
vigilance.
The following situations may interfere with the operation of the system or
prevent it from working:
–

lane markings absent, worn, hidden (snow
,
mud) or multiple (roadworks);
–

close to the vehicle ahead (lane markings
not detected);
–


roads that are narrow
, winding, etc.
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.

Driving
6End of the parking space
entry or exit manoeuvre
The vehicle stops as soon as the manoeuvre is
completed.
The manoeuvring symbol is displayed in red
accompanied by the message “Manoeuvre
completed” on the touch screen.
Deactivation of the function is confirmed
by this indicator lamp going off,
accompanied by an audible signal.
If entering a parking space, the driver may be
required to complete the manoeuvre.
Operating limits
– The system may suggest an inappropriate
parking space (parking prohibited, work in
progress with damaged road surface, location
alongside a ditch, etc.).
–

The system may indicate that a space has
been found but will not offer it because of a fixed
obstacle on the opposite side of the manoeuvre,
which would not allow the vehicle to follow a
trajectory required for parking.
–


The system may indicate that a space has
been found but the manoeuvre will not be
triggered, because the width of the lane is
insufficient.
–


The system is not designed for performing the
parking manoeuvre on a sharp bend.
–


The system does not detect spaces that
are much larger than the vehicle itself or that
are delimited by obstacles that are too low
(pavements, studs, etc.) or too thin (trees, posts,
wire fences, etc.).
–

If the boot is heavily loaded, the tilt of the
vehicle towards the rear may interfere with the
distance measurements.
Do not use the function under the
following exterior conditions:
–

Alongside a soft shoulder (e.g. ditch) or
quay or on the edge of a drop.
–


When the road surface is slippery (e.g. ice).
If any of the following malfunctions
occurs, do not use the system:
–

If a tyre is under-inflated.
–


If one of the bumpers is damaged.
–


If one of the cameras is faulty
.
If the vehicle has undergone any of the
following modifications, do not use the
function:
–

When carrying an object extending beyond
the dimensions of the vehicle (ladder on the
roof bars, bicycle carrier on the tailgate, etc.).
–


With a non-approved towball in place.
–


With snow chains fitted.
–


When driving on a small-diameter or
"space-saver" type spare wheel.
–


When the wheels fitted are a different size
from the original ones.
–


After modifying one or both bumpers
(added protection).
– If the sensors have been repainted other
than by the PEUGEOT dealer network.
–

With sensors not approved for the vehicle.
Malfunctions
When the function is not activated, the
temporary flashing of this indicator lamp
and an audible signal indicate a system
malfunction.
If the malfunction occurs while the system is in
use, the indicator lamp goes off.
If the parking sensor malfunction occurs
during use, indicated by this warning lamp
coming on, it causes the function to deactivate.
In the event of a malfunction, have the system
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
In the event of a power steering
malfunction, this warning lamp is
displayed on the instrument panel, accompanied
by a warning message.
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
