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 Lane Departure
Warning System
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.


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

R
oad marked with a central dividing line.
–

St
eering wheel held in both hands.
–

Direction indic
ators not activated.
–

ESC s
ystem 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 Detection 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 Detection,
refer to the corresponding section.

If
, while correcting the trajectory, the system determines
that the correction will not be enough and that a solid line
will be crossed (orange line): the driver is warned that they
must provide additional trajectory adjustment.
– If the st eering wheel is not held properly, an audible
warning sounds, accompanied by a message, until the
trajectory correction is completed or the driver has grasped
the steering wheel correctly.
The duration of audible warnings will increase if multiple
corrections are performed in quick succession. The warning
will become continuous, persisting until the driver responds.
Operating limits
The system goes into standby automatically in
the following cases:
–

ESC deactiv
ated or operation triggered,
–

f the "space-saver" spare wheel detected
(as detection is not immediate, deactivation of
the system is recommended),
–

dynamic driving style det
ected, pressure on the
brake or accelerator pedal,
–

driving where there are no lane markings,
– activation of the direction indicators,
– cro ssing the inside line on a bend,
–

driving in a tigh
t corner,
–

inactivity b
y the driver detected during
correction.
The following situations may interfere
with the operation of the system or
prevent it from working:
–

insufficien
t contrast between the road
surface and the shoulders (e.g. shade),
–

lane markings w

Risk of undesirable operation
We recommend deactivating the system in the
following driving situations:
–
driving on damaged, unst
able or very slippery
(ice) road surfaces,
–

un
favourable weather conditions,
–

driving on a speed circ
uit,
–

driving on a rolling road.

Active Safety Brake with
Collision Risk Alert and
Intelligent emergency
braking assistance
Refer to the General recommendations on the use
of driving and manoeuvring aids.


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

reduc
es 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:
–

Collision Risk Alert.
–


In

telligent emergency braking assistance.
–

Activ
e 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:
–

T
owing a trailer.
–

Carrying long objects on roo
f bars.
–

V
ehicles with snow chains fitted.
–

Before using an aut
omatic car wash, with the
engine running.
–

Before placing the v
ehicle on a rolling road in a
workshop.
–

T
owed vehicle, engine running.
–

Follo
wing 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.

116
Driving06
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.
After an impact, the function
automatically stops operating. Contact a
dealer or a qualified workshop to have the
system checked.
Collision Risk Alert
This function warns the driver that their vehicle is
at risk of a collision with the vehicle in front, or 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:
–

"Distant".
–

“Normal".
–

“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 in
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,
the steering wheel, etc.) to trigger the alert at the
best moment.
Level 1 (orange): visual alert only,
indicating that the vehicle in front is very
close.
The message "Vehicle close" is displayed.
Level 2 (red): visual and audible alert,
indicating that a collision is imminent.
The message "Brake!" is displayed.
Level 3: in some cases, a vibration alert in the
form of micro-braking can be given, confirming
the risk of collision.
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 "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 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 immediately flashes
(for approximately 10 seconds) when the
function acts on the vehicle’s braking.
With an automatic gearbox or drive selector, 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 moving 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 firmly turning the
steering wheel and/or firmly depressing the
accelerator pedal.

automatic braking is maintained for 1 to 2
seconds.
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 dealer or a qualified workshop to have
the system checked.
If these warning lamps come on
after the engine has been switched
off and then restarted, contact a dealer or a
qualified workshop to have the system checked.
Parking sensors
Refer to the General recommendations on the use
of driving and manoeuvring aids.


Using sensors located in the bumper, this
system signals the proximity of obstacles (e.g. pedestrian, vehicle, tree, barrier) present in
their field of detection.
Rear parking sensors
The system is switched on by engaging reverse
gear, as confirmed by an audible signal.
The system is switched off when you come out of
reverse gear.
Audible assistance

The system signals the presence of obstacles
within the sensors’ detection zone.


Depending on version, in the example shown, only
the obstacles present in the shaded area will be
signalled by the audible assistance.
The proximity information is given by an
intermittent audible signal, the frequency of
