Driving
Brake system operational.
Seat belts fastened for all passengers.
Stabilised speed on roads with no or low
curvature.
This warning lamp lights up on the instrument panel without any additional
message, to indicate that the automatic braking
system is not available.
This is a normal behavior indicating that a
condition is not fulfilled and which does not
request the support of a workshop.
In any situations with ignition on where automatic
braking presents a risk, deactivating the
system via the vehicle's configuration menu is
recommended, for instance:
–
T
owing a trailer (particularly a trailer without its
own braking system).
–
Carrying long objects on roof bars or roof rack.
–
Driving with snow chains.
–
Using an automatic car wash.
–
Performing any maintenance (e.g.
changing a
wheel, working inside the engine compartment).
–
Placing the vehicle on a rolling bench in a
workshop.
–
T
owing the vehicle.
–
Following a front bumper deformation.
–
Following
an impact to the windscreen close to
the detection camera.
The system diagnoses permanently its capability and may inhibit itself without
specific driver indication, if the system is
outside of the regular operating conditions
(e.g. sensor initialization, board voltage out of
regular range, activation of stability system).
Therefore, the system may not be available
just after starting the vehicle.
It can be dangerous to drive if the brake
lamps are not in perfect working order.
The driver must not overload the vehicle (keep within the GVW limit and load
height limits for roof bars).
Following an impact (e.g. a collision), the
system is automatically deactivated.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Collision Risk Alert
This function warns the driver if there is a risk
of collision with the preceding vehicle, or with a
pedestrian or cyclist.
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 vehicle configuration menu with the audio
system or touch screen.
►
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 collision risk detected by the
system and the alert trigger threshold chosen
by the driver, different levels of alert may be
triggered and displayed on the instrument panel.
The system takes into account the vehicle
dynamics, the difference speed of the own
vehicle and the object identified for the
collision risk, and the operation of the vehicle
(e.g.
actions on the pedals, steering wheel) to
trigger the alert at the most relevant moment.
(orange)
Level 1: visual alert only, warning that the
preceding vehicle is very close.
The message "Vehicle close" is displayed.
(red)
Level 2: visual and audible alert, warning
that a collision is imminent.
The message "Brake! " is displayed.
While approaching a vehicle too quickly,
the level 2 alert may be displayed
directly.
Important: the level 1 alert depends on the
trigger threshold selected. It reacts only on
moving vehicles. It is disabled automatically
at lower speed.

This may be caused by a reduced visibility
(e.g.
rain, fog, snow, blinding by low sun) or by
a real sensor blockage. In this case, stop the
vehicle and verify if the front camera or the front
radar is covered by dirt, snow, ice or anything
preventing the sensing.
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
