Speed adjustment during
cornering
(with Highway Driver Assist 2.0)
For more information, refer to the
General recommendations on the use
of driving and manoeuvring aids and the
Cruise control - particular
recommendations.
In addition to Adaptive Cruise Control with
Stop&Go and Lane positioning assist systems,
this system regulates the speed of the vehicle in
bends.
It adapts the speed, with or without target
vehicle, in certain bends on motorways or main
roads.
The speed is only adjusted if the vehicle speed is
not compatible with the angle of the bend.
The reduction in speed on a bend is adapted
to the situation in order to ensure the bend is
navigated comfortably.
In the presence of a target vehicle, it also
maintains the inter-vehicle distance.
This system does not manage bends that are too tight ("hairpin bend" for example).

–

V
ehicle speed between 43 and 112 mph (70
and 180 km/h).
Operation
The vehicle is moving at the
speed setting and is monitoring
bends.
The system gradually decreases
the speed in the bend to
negotiate it comfortably.
Temporary driver intervention
If the driver believes that the speed is too slow or
too fast, they can act on the pedals.
Pressing the brake pedal deactivates Highway
Driver Assist 2.0, while pressing the accelerator
pedal temporarily suspends it.
Semi-automatic lane
changing
(with Highway Driver Assist 2.0)
For more information, refer to the
General recommendations on the use
of driving and manoeuvring aids .
This system assists the driver in changing lanes.
To do this, it uses the camera located at the top
of the windscreen, the radar located at the front
and the four angle radars fitted in the bumpers.
The steering wheel is equipped with a hands-on detection system to avoid
distraction on the part of the driver.
For more information on the Hands-on
detection, refer to the corresponding section.
The system cannot in any circumstances replace the need for vigilance on the part
of the driver. The driver remains responsible
for their driving by monitoring their
surroundings and keeping their hands on the
steering wheel.
The driver must act promptly if they believe
that the traffic conditions or the state of the
road surface require their intervention, by
moving the steering wheel to temporarily
suspend system operation.
Any intervention on the brake pedal or the
accelerator pedal that causes the adaptive
cruise control to be paused or suspended will
also cause the system to deactivate.
System selection
Two possibilities:
– Either , when the vehicle is already driving on
an eligible road, the driver selects the system via
the Highway Driver Assist 2.0 system activation.
–

Or
, when the driver is already using Highway
Driver Assist, the vehicle suggests selecting
the system upon arriving at an eligible road by
pressing the OK button.
Activation/Deactivation

► Activate the direction indicator on the side
corresponding to the lane change, whether or
not passing the resistance point of the lighting
control stalk.
The driver can regain control of the vehicle at
any time:
–

by deactivating the direction indicator if the
vehicle has not yet crossed the line.
–


by firmly holding the steering wheel.

Authorised lane change request
When operating the direction indicator, if the
necessary conditions are met, the message
"OK?" is displayed on the instrument panel,
accompanied by an audible signal.




► After checking the surroundings, press
2-OK to confirm the start of the lane change
manoeuvre.
The message "Stay alert"
is displayed as a
reminder that the driver is responsible for the
manoeuvre.


The system then proceeds with the vehicle’s
lane change.
Once the manoeuvre has been carried out, the
system is automatically deactivated and the lane
positioning assist takes over.
If the direction indicator has been set beyond the
point of resistance, the driver must pull it back.
The driver must hold the steering wheel correctly.
As soon as the semi-automatic lane change
begins, the system directs the vehicle to the
target lane by small actions on the steering to
position it in the destination lane.
You can feel the steering wheel moving.
Interruption of lane change
It is possible that during a lane change, the
necessary conditions for the functioning of the
system may no longer be met.


If this occurs before either wheel has crossed
the line between the two lanes, the system will
automatically return the vehicle to its original
lane (confirmed by displaying a manoeuvre
cancellation message on the digital instrument
panel and an audible signal). Then the system
automatically deactivates itself.


If this occurs while the lane change has begun,
the system asks the driver to immediately
regain control of the vehicle (confirmed by the
display of a message on the digital instrument

Active Safety Brake with Collision Risk 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 preceding vehicle, a pedestrian
or a cyclist.
–

reduces the vehicle's speed to avoid a
collision or to limit its severity

.
The speed will be reduced by a maximum of 16 mph (25 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 into account. It may also react on animals.
Animals (especially animals smaller than
0.5

m) and objects on the road are not
necessarily detected.
This system includes three functions:
– Collision Risk Alert.
–

Intelligent emergency braking assistance
(iEBA).
–


Active Safety Brake (automatic emergency
braking).


The vehicle has a multifunction 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 driver vigilance.
This system is designed to assist the driver
and improve road safety.
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 collision, it prepares the braking
circuit. This may cause a slight noise and a
slight sensation of deceleration.

125
Driving
6Deactivation/Activation
By default, the system is automatically activated
at every engine start.
It is configured in the ADAS touch screen
application.
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 without trailer.
Brake system operational.
ASR / ESP system activated.
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 ADAS touch screen application is
recommended, for instance:
–

T

owing a trailer (particularly a trailer without its
own braking system).
–

Carrying long objects on roof bars.
–


Driving with snow chains.
– Using an automatic car wash.
– Performing any maintenance (e.g. changing a
wheel, working underhood).
–

Placing the vehicle on a rolling bench in a
workshop.
–


T
owing the vehicle.
–

Following a front bumper deformation (version
with radar).
–


Following
an impact to the windscreen close to
the detection camera.
The system is automatically deactivated if:
–

A

spare wheel with a too small diameter is
detected.
–

A

fault with the brake pedal switch or with
the right or left brake lamp is detected.
–

A

fault in the sensors, in the electronic or in
the brake system is detected.
–

A

trailer is detected by the equipped vehicle
hitch (with an electrical connection plug).
The system diagnoses permanently its capability and may inhibit itself without
specific driver indication, if the system is
outside of the regular operating conditions.
Examples: 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 load his vehicle excessively (respect of MTAC values,
MTRA values and loading height on roof
bars).
Following an impact (e.g. a collision), the
system is automatically deactivated.
Have it checked by a CITROËN 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
The trigger threshold determines the sensitivity
with which the function warns of the risk of
collision.
It is configured in the ADAS touch screen
application.
►

Select one of the 3 preset thresholds: “ Far

”,
“Medium” or “Near”.
The selected threshold is memorised when the
ignition is switched off.
Operation
Depending on the collision risk detected by the
system and the alert trigger threshold chosen

126
Driving
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 (actions on
the pedals, steering wheel, etc.) 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.
Level 3: a micro-braking may be given,
confirming the risk of collision (optional).
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.
It is possible that collision 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.
If you select “Far” in the ADAS touch
screen application, then the system
warns sooner. This increases the safety but
increases also the amount of alerts, if the
legal safety distance is not kept. To reduce
the alert occurrence, you can change the
setting to “Medium” or “Near”.
Intelligent emergency
braking assistance (iEBA)
This function increases vehicle deceleration
if the driver doesn't brake enough to avoid a
collision.
This assistance is only provided if the driver
presses the brake pedal.
Active Safety Brake

This function, also called "automatic emergency
braking", intervenes after the acoustic alert if the
driver does not operate the brake pedal quickly
enough.
The system aims at reducing the speed of
impact or avoiding a collision if the driver fails to
react.
The speed will be reduced by a maximum of 16 mph (25 km/h) (versions
with camera only) or by a maximum of 31
mph (50 km/h) (versions with camera and
radar).

Driving
6risk: 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.


Conditions for operation
– Vehicle speed between 43 and 112 mph (70
and 180 km/h).
–

Road marked with a central dividing line.
–


Steering wheel held in both hands.
– Direction indicators off upon activation of the
system.
–

ESC system 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 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.
