Driving
6The 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.
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.
The system aims to reduce the speed of impact
or avoid a collision where the driver fails to react.
Operation
The system operates subject to 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 or a cyclist
is detected.
– The vehicle's speed is between 6 mph and
53 mph (10 km/h and 85 km/h) (versions with
camera only) or 87 mph (140 km/h) (versions
with camera and radar) when a moving vehicle
is detected.
This warning lamp flashes (for approximately 10 seconds) as soon as
the function applies the vehicle’s brakes.
With an automatic gearbox, in the event of
automatic emergency braking bringing the
vehicle to a complete stop, keep the brake pedal
depressed to prevent the vehicle from moving
off again.
With a manual gearbox, in the event of automatic
emergency braking bringing the vehicle to a
complete stop, the engine may stall.
The driver can maintain control of the vehicle at any time by firmly turning the
steering wheel and/or firmly depressing the
accelerator pedal.
The brake pedal may vibrate slightly while the function is operating.
If the vehicle comes to a complete stop,
automatic braking is maintained for 1 to 2
seconds.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, this warning
lamp lights up on the instrument panel,

Driving
Zoom view

The camera records the vehicle's surroundings
during the manoeuvre in order to create a
view from above the front of the vehicle in its
near surroundings, allowing the vehicle to be
manoeuvred around obstacles nearby.
This view is available with AUTO mode or in the
view selection menu.
Obstacles may appear further away than
they actually are.
It is important to check the sides of the
vehicle during the manoeuvre, using the
mirrors.
The parking sensors also supplement the
information on the vehicle's surroundings.
180° 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.

Practical information
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
For more information on the Electric
parking brake, refer to the
corresponding section.
Brake pads
Brake wear depends on the style of
driving, particularly in the case of vehicles
used in town, over short distances. It may be
necessary to have the condition of the brakes
checked, even between vehicle services.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in the
brake fluid level indicates that the brake pads
are worn.
After washing the vehicle, moisture, or in wintry conditions, ice can form on the
brake discs and pads: braking efficiency may
be reduced. Gently dab the brakes to dry and
defrost them.
Brake disc wear
For information on checking brake disc
wear, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Wheels and tyres
The inflation pressure of all tyres, including the spare wheel, must be
checked on "cold” tyres.
The pressures indicated on the tyre pressure
label are valid for "cold" tyres. If you have driven
for more than 10 minutes or more than 6 miles
(10 kilometres) at over 31 mph (50
km/h), add
0.3 bar (30 kPa) to the values indicated on the
label.
Under-inflation increases energy
consumption. Non-compliant tyre
pressures cause tyres to wear prematurely
and have an adverse effect on the vehicle's
road holding - risk of accident!
Driving with worn or damaged tyres reduces the
braking and road holding performance of the
vehicle. Regularly check the condition of the
tyres (tread and sidewalls) and rims as well as
the presence of the valve caps.
When the wear indicators no longer appear set
back from the tread, the depth of the grooves is
less than 1.6 mm; replace the tyres as soon as
possible.
Using different size wheels and tyres from those
specified can affect the lifetime of tyres, wheel
rotation, ground clearance, the speedometer
reading and have an adverse effect on road
holding.
Fitting different tyres on the front and rear axles
can cause the ESC to mistime.
Always mark the direction of rotation on the tyres
that will be stored when fitting winter or summer
tyres. Store them in a cool, dry place and away
from direct exposure to the sun's rays.
Winter or 4-seasons tyres can be
identified by this symbol on their
sidewalls.
Shock absorbers
It is not easy for drivers to detect when
shock absorbers are worn. Nevertheless,
the shock absorbers have a major impact on
road holding and braking performance.
For your safety and driving comfort, it is
important to have them regularly checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Timing and accessory kits
The timing and accessory kits are used
from the time the engine is started until it
is switched off. It is normal for them to wear over
time.
A
faulty timing or accessory kit can damage
the engine, rendering it unusable. Observe the
recommended replacement frequency, stated in
distance travelled or time elapsed, whichever is
reached first.
AdBlue® (BlueHDi)
To respect the environment and ensure compliance with the Euro 6 standard, without
adversely affecting the performance or fuel
consumption of its Diesel engines, PEUGEOT
has taken the decision to equip its vehicles with
a system that combines SCR (Selective Catalytic
Reduction) with a Diesel Particle Filter (DPF) for
the treatment of exhaust gases.
SCR system
Using a liquid called AdBlue® that contains
urea, a catalytic converter turns up to 85% of
the nitrogen oxides (NOx) into nitrogen and
water, which are harmless to health and the
environment.
The AdBlue® is contained in a special
tank holding about 17 litres.
Its capacity allows a driving range of
approximately 4,000 miles (6,500 km), which
may vary considerably depending on your
driving style.
An alert system is triggered once the reserve
level is reached: it is then possible to drive for a
further 1,500 miles (2,400 km) before the tank is
empty and the vehicle is immobilised.
For more information on the Warning
and indicator lamps and the associated
alerts, or the Indicators, please refer to the
corresponding sections.
Once the AdBlue® tank is empty, a device
required by law prevents the engine from
being restarted.
If the SCR system is faulty, the level of
emissions from the vehicle will no longer meet
the Euro 6 standard and the vehicle starts
polluting the environment.
