close to the camera or on the front bumper
(versions with radar).
–


Brake lamps not working.
If the vehicle has undergone any of the
following modifications, do not use the
system:
–

Carrying long objects on roof bars.
–


Towing.
–

Front end of the vehicle modified (for
example by adding long-range headlamps or
painting the front bumper).
Active 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.
– Traffic lane marked out by lines on both sides.
– ESC system operational.
– ASR system activated.
– No trailer detected.
– No 'space-saver' spare wheel in use.
– Vehicle not subject to strong lateral g-forces.
– Direction indicators not activated.

132
Driving

Conditions for operation
– Vehicle speed between 40 and 112 mph (65
and 180 km/h).
–

Road marked with a central dividing line.
–


Steering wheel held in both hands.
–


Direction indicators not activated.
–


ESC system activated and operational.
The system helps the driver only if there is a risk of the vehicle unintentionally
wandering from the lane it is being driven in. It
does not manage the safe driving distance,
vehicle speed or brakes.
The driver must hold the steering wheel with
both hands in a way that allows control to
be maintained in circumstances where the
system is not able to intervene (for example, if
the central dividing line disappears).
Operation
Once the system identifies a risk of the vehicle
involuntarily crossing one of the lane markings
detected or a lane limit (e.g. grass border), it
makes the necessary trajectory correction 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 immediately if
the direction indicators are operated.


While the direction indicators are on and for
a few seconds after switching them off, the
system considers that any change of trajectory is
intentional and no correction is triggered during
this period.
However, with the Blind Spot Monitoring System
system activated, if the driver starts changing
lanes and another vehicle is detected in the
vehicle's blind spot, the system will correct the
trajectory even though the direction indicators
are on.
For more information on the Blind Spot
Monitoring System , refer to the corresponding
section.
If the system detects that the driver is not
holding the wheel firmly enough during
an automatic correction of trajectory, it
interrupts the correction. An alert is triggered
to encourage the driver to take back control of
the vehicle.
Driving situations and related alerts
To receive all the necessary information on the instrument panel, first select the " DRIVING" display mode.
The table below describes the alerts and messages displayed in different driving situations.
These alerts are not displayed sequentially.

Driving
Side parking sensors

Using four additional sensors located on the
sides of the bumpers, the system records the
position of obstacles during the manoeuvre and
indicates them when they are located alongside
the vehicle.
Only fixed obstacles are indicated
correctly. Moving obstacles detected at
the beginning of the manoeuvre may be
indicated mistakenly, while moving obstacles
that appear alongside the vehicle but were
not previously recorded will not be indicated.
Objects memorised during the
manoeuvre will no longer be stored after
switching off the ignition.
Deactivation / Activation
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.


The rear parking sensors system will be deactivated automatically if a trailer or
bicycle carrier is connected to a towing device
installed in accordance with the
manufacturer's recommendations.
In this case, the outline of a trailer is displayed
at the rear of the image of the vehicle.
The parking sensors are deactivated while the
Park Assist and Full Park Assist functions are
measuring a space.
For more information on the Park Assist or the
Full Park Assist, refer to the corresponding
section.
Operating limits
If the boot is heavily loaded, the vehicle may tilt,
affecting distance measurements.
Malfunction
