Active Safety Brake with Distance Alert and
Intelligent emergency
braking assistance
For more information, 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 speed will be reduced by a maximum of 12 mph (20 km/h) (versions
with camera only) or by a maximum of 31
mph (50 km/h) (versions with camera and
radar).
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
(iEBA).
–
Active Safety Brake (automatic emergency
braking).
The vehicle has a camera located at the top of
the windscreen and, depending on version, a
radar located in the front bumper.
This system does not replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
This system is designed to assist the driver
and improve road safety.
148
Driving
It is the driver's responsibility to continuously
monitor traffic conditions in accordance with
applicable 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.
The settings are changed 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
Vehicle moving forward.
ESC system operational.
DSC/ASR systems activated.
Seat belts fastened for all passengers.
Stabilised speed on roads with few bends.
In the following cases, deactivating the system
via the vehicle's configuration menu is advised:
–

ehicle 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.
–
T
owed vehicle, engine running.
–
Damaged front bumper (version with radar).
–
Following
an impact to the windscreen close to
the detection camera.
The system is automatically deactivated once the use of a different diameter
"space-saver" type spare wheel is detected,
or if a fault with the two lateral brake lamps is
detected.
It can be dangerous to drive if the brake
lamps are not in perfect working order.
It is possible that warnings are not given,
are given too late or seem unjustified.
The driver must always stay in control of the
vehicle and be prepared to react at any time
to avoid an accident.
Following an impact, the system is
automatically deactivated.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Distance Alert
This function warns the driver that their vehicle
is at risk of a collision with the vehicle in front, or with a pedestrian or cyclist present in their traffic
lane.
Modifying the alert trigger threshold
This trigger threshold determines the sensitivity
with which the function warns of the risk of
collision.
The threshold is set via the
Driving/Vehicle touch screen menu.
►
Select one of the three pre-defined
thresholds: "Far", "Normal" or "Close".
The last threshold selected is memorised when
the ignition is switched off.
Operation
Depending on the degree of risk of collision
detected by the system and the alert trigger
threshold chosen by the driver, several different
levels of alert may be triggered and displayed on
the instrument panel.
The system takes account of the vehicle
dynamics, the speed of your vehicle and the one
in front, the environmental conditions and the
operation of the vehicle (actions on the pedals,
steering wheel, etc.) to trigger the alert at the
most relevant moment.
(orange)
Level 1: visual alert only, warning you that
the vehicle in front is very close.
The message
"Vehicle close" is displayed.
(red)
Level 2: visual and audible alert, warning
you 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 not displayed
when there is a stationary obstacle or
when the "Near " trigger threshold has been
selected.
Intelligent emergency
braking assistance (iEBA)
This function supplements braking in the event
that the driver brakes, but not enough to avoid a
collision.
This assistance will only be provided if the driver
presses the brake pedal.
150
Driving
accompanied by the display of a message and
an audible signal.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
These warning lamps light up on the instrument panel to indicate
that the driver's and/or front passenger's seat
belt is not fastened (depending on version). The
automatic braking system is deactivated until the
seat belts are fastened.
Distraction detection
For more information, refer to the
General recommendations on the use
of driving and manoeuvring aids .
Depending on version, the function consists of
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.
Take a break if you are feeling tired or at least
every 2 hours.
Activation/Deactivation
This function is set via the touch screen Driving/Vehicle menu.
The state of the system is memorised when the
ignition is switched off.
Driver Attention Alert
The system triggers an alert when it detects that the driver has not taken a
break after two hours of driving at a speed above
43 mph (70
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 43 mph (70 km/h), the
system goes into standby.
Driving time starts being counted again once
the speed reaches above 43
mph (70 km/h).
Driver Attention Alert by
camera
Depending on version, the Driver Attention
Alert system may be combined with the Driver
Attention Alert by camera system.
The system assesses the driver's level of alertness, fatigue and distraction by
identifying trajectory changes in relation to the
lane markings.
To do this, the system uses a camera, placed on
the upper part of the windscreen.
This system is particularly suited to fast roads
(speed higher than 43 mph (70
km/h)).
At a first alert level, the driver is warned by the
message "Be vigilant!", 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.
Blind Spot Monitoring
For more information, refer to the
General recommendations on the use
of driving and manoeuvring aids .
This system warns the driver of a potential
danger posed by the presence of another vehicle
152
Driving
Operating limits
No alert is triggered in the following conditions:
– presence of stationary objects (e.g. parked
vehicles, safety rails, lampposts, signs).
–
vehicles travelling in the opposite direction.
–
on winding roads or in case of sharp turns.
–
when overtaking or being overtaken by a
very long vehicle (e.g.
truck, bus), which is both
detected in a blind spot from behind and present
in the driver's field of vision from the front.
–
quick overtaking manoeuvre.
–
very heavy traffic: vehicles detected in front
and behind are confused with a lorry or a
stationary object.
–
activation of
the Park Assist function.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, this
warning lamp flashes for a few
moments in the instrument panel, accompanied
by the Service warning lamp coming on and the
display of a message.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
The system may be temporarily disturbed by certain climatic conditions (e.g. rain,
hail).
In particular, driving on a wet road or going
from a dry to a wet area can cause false
alerts (e.g.
presence of a cloud of water
droplets in the blind spot 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.
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 , refer to the corresponding sections.
Parking sensors
For more information, refer to the
General recommendations on the use
of driving and manoeuvring aids .

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.
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
becomes continuous when the obstacle is
less than 30 centimetres away.
If the Parking sensors function has
been deactivated, it will be automatically
reactivated during the assisted manoeuvring
phases.
During parking and exit from parking
manoeuvres, the Visiopark 1 - Visiopark
2 functions may come into operation. They
allow better monitoring of the surroundings of
the vehicle, by displaying additional
information in the touch screen.
For more information on the Visiopark
1 - Visiopark 2
functions, refer to the
corresponding section.
In some circumstances, the sensors may
not detect small obstacles located in their
blind spots.
Any object exceeding the size of the vehicle
(e.g.
roof ladder, towball) is not taken
into account by the Park Assist during a
manoeuvre.
Always check the surroundings of the vehicle before starting a manoeuvre.
If the lateral distance between the vehicle and
the space is too great, the system may not be
able to measure the space.
During manoeuvring phases, the steering
wheel performs rapid turns: do not hold
the steering wheel or put your hands between
the spokes of the steering wheel.
Beware of any object likely to block the
