138
Driving
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.
Special cases
Intersection with another vehicle

The system operates when the vehicle is turning
and detects another vehicle approaching from
the opposite direction if:
–

The vehicle is about to cross the path of
another vehicle.
–


The corresponding direction indicator is
activated in advance.
–


The speed of the vehicle is between 3 and 12
mph (5 and 20

km/h).
Intersection with pedestrians

The system operates when the vehicle is turning
left or right and detects pedestrians crossing if:
–
The pedestrians are crossing in front of the
vehicle.
–


The speed of the vehicle is between 3 and 50
mph (5 and 80

km/h).
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, this warning
lamp lights up on the instrument panel,
accompanied by the display of a message and
an audible signal.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If these warning lamps come on
after the engine has been switched
off and then restarted, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop to have the
system checked.
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 .
The function comprises the "Driver Attention
Warning" system combined with the "Driver
Attention Warning 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
By default, the function is automatically activated
at every engine start.
The settings are changed via the ADAS
touch screen application.
Driver Attention Warning
The system triggers an alert when it detects that the driver has not taken a

139
Driving
6break 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 Warning by
Camera


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.
Active lane departure warning system
For more information, refer to the
General recommendations on the use
of driving and manoeuvring aids .
The system corrects the vehicle's trajectory by
alerting the driver as soon as it detects a risk of
involuntary
lane departure or crossing of a verge
or hard shoulder (depending on version).
To do this, the system uses a camera, placed on
the upper part of the windscreen, identifying the
lane markings on the ground and the side of the
road (depending on version).
This system is particularly useful on
motorways and main roads.


Operating conditions
– Vehicle speed between 43 and 112 mph (70
and 180 km/h).
–

Road marked with a central dividing line.
–


Steering wheel held with both hands.
–


Direction indicators off upon activation of the
system.
–


ESC system activated and operational.

140
Driving
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 braking.
The driver must hold the steering wheel with
both hands so that they can maintain control
when
the conditions no longer allow the
system to intervene (e.g.
in the event that
the central dividing line marking on the road
surface disappears).Operation
As soon as the system identifies a risk of
involuntarily crossing one of the lane markings
detected on the ground or a lane boundary
(e.g.
grass verge), it performs the trajectory
correction necessary to restore the vehicle to its
original lane.
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 firmly holding the steering wheel
(e.g.
during an emergency manoeuvre).
The correction is interrupted immediately if
the direction indicators are operated.
While the direction indicators are activated and
for a few seconds after switching them off, the
system considers that a change of trajectory is
intentional and no correction is triggered during
this period.
Driving situations and related alerts
The table below describes the alerts and messages displayed in different driving situations.
The actual order of display of these alerts may be different.

of driving and manoeuvring aids .


This system warns the driver of vehicles
approaching rapidly from the rear in adjacent
lanes (up to around 75
m) and of the presence of
a vehicle in the blind spots of their vehicle, using
corner radars located in the rear bumper.
This system takes into account vehicles such as cars, lorries and motorcycles by
monitoring the blind spots or areas hidden
from the driver's field of vision.


A warning lamp appears in the door mirror on the
side in question:
–

Fixed,
immediately when another vehicle is in
the blind spot or is approaching in an adjacent
lane.
–

Flashing , after about 1 second when the
direction indicator is used.
Activation/Deactivation
It is configured in the ADAS touch screen
application.
When starting the vehicle, the
warning lamp
comes on in each mirror to indicate that the
system is activated.
The status of the system is memorised when the
ignition is switched off.
The system is automatically deactivated when towing with a towing device
approved by PEUGEOT.

operation of the radars.
Malfunction
If the event of a malfunction, this warning
lamp lights up on the instrument panel,
accompanied by the display of a message.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
The system may be temporarily disturbed by certain weather conditions (e.g. heavy
rain, hail or extreme temperature changes).
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

radars 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 rear bumper, with adhesive labels or
other objects; they may hamper the correct
operation of the system.
Parking sensors
For more information, refer to the
General recommendations on the use
of driving and manoeuvring aids .


This system detects and signals the proximity of
obstacles (e.g.
pedestrian, vehicle, tree, barrier)
using sensors located in the bumper.
Rear parking sensors
► Engage reverse gear to start the system
(confirmed by an audible signal).
The system is switched off when reverse gear is
disengaged.
Audible assistance

The system signals the presence of obstacles
which are both within the sensors’ detection zone
and in the vehicle path defined by the direction of
the steering wheel.


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
which increases as the vehicle approaches the
obstacle.
When the distance between the vehicle and
the obstacle becomes less than about thirty
centimetres, the audible signal becomes
continuous.
The sound emitted by the speaker (right or
left) indicates the side on which the obstacle is
located.
Adjusting the audible signalPressing this button opens the
window for adjusting the volume
of the audible signal.

144
Driving
Visual assistance

This supplements the audible signal, without
taking account of the vehicle's trajectory, by
displaying bars on the screen whose location
represents the distance between the obstacle
and the vehicle (white: more distant, orange:
close, red: very close).
When the obstacle is very close, the "Danger"
symbol is displayed on the screen.
Front parking sensors
Supplementing the rear parking sensors, the
front parking sensors are triggered when an
obstacle is detected in front and the speed of the
vehicle is below 6 mph (10 km/h).
Front parking sensor operation is suspended if
the vehicle stops for more than three seconds in
forward gear, if an obstacle is no longer detected
or the vehicle speed exceeds 6
mph (10 km/h).
The sound emitted by the speaker (front or rear) locates the obstacle relative to
the vehicle, whether in front of or behind it on
its path.
Deactivation/Activation
(Depending on country of sale)
Depending on version, using the centre console
button and/or in the ADAS application on the
touch screen.




► Press this button to activate or deactivate the

switched off.


The rear parking sensors are 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.
When starting the vehicle, the graphic
and audible aids are only available after
the touch screen has started up.
Operating limits
If the boot is heavily loaded, the vehicle may tilt,
affecting distance measurements.
Malfunction

6Operating principle



When an approaching obstacle is detected, the
symbol 1 or 2 flashes on the touch screen, in the
Parking sensors view or in the various contextual
views of the Visiopark 1 or Visiopark 2 functions
(depending on version).
The symbol is complemented by an audible
signal when the vehicle is reversing.
An obstacle is approaching in the blind spot on the rear right-hand/
left-hand side or on both sides of the vehicle.
In the event of a malfunction of these functions
or of the touch screen, or if the driver deactivates
the views from these functions on the touch
screen, detection of an approaching obstacle
is still indicated by the audible signal when the
vehicle is reversing.
Activation/Deactivation
It is configured in the ADAS touch screen
application.
The system's status is saved when the ignition is
switched off.
Operating limits
The system may not work in the following cases:
– T owing a trailer.
