6Deactivation/Activation
By default, the system is automatically activated 
at every engine start.
The settings are changed 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
Vehicle moving forward without trailer.
Brake system operational.
DSC/ASR systems 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 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.
–
 
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 (version 
with radar).
–
 
Following 
 an 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.
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  Driving/Vehicle touch screen menu.
►
 
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.  CarM an uals 2 .c o m

6The brake pedal may feel hard and 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
This warning lamp lights up on the  instrument panel with the message 
"Sensor blind " in certain cases.
Version with camera only: the system is 
deactivated.
Version with camera and radar: the system 
may continue to operate in a degraded mode.
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.
These warning lamps light up on  the instrument panel and/or in the 
warning lamp display for seat belts and front 
passenger airbag 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 .
Depending on version, the function consists of 
either the "Driver Attention Warning" system 
alone or 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
This function is set via the touch screen  Driving/Vehicle menu.
The state of the system is memorised when the 
ignition is switched off.
Driver Attention Warning
The system triggers an alert when it  detects that the driver has not taken a 
break 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
Depending on version, the Driver Attention 
Warning system may be combined with the 
Driver Attention Warning by Camera system.
   CarM an uals 2 .c o m  

154
Driving
 
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.
In certain driving conditions (poor road 
surface or strong winds), the system may 
give alerts independent of the driver's level of 
vigilance.
The following situations may interfere  with the operation of the system or 
prevent it from working:
–
 
lane markings absent, worn, hidden (snow
 , 
mud) or multiple (roadworks);
–
 
close to the vehicle ahead (lane markings 
not detected);
–
 
roads that are narrow
 , winding, etc.
Blind spot monitoring
For more information, refer to the 
General recommendations on the use 
of driving and manoeuvring aids .
 
 
This system warns the driver of a potential 
danger posed by the presence of another vehicle 
(car, lorry, motorcycle) in the vehicle's blind 
spots (areas hidden from the driver's field of 
vision) using sensors located on the sides of the 
bumpers.
 
 
A warning lamp appears in the door mirror on the 
side in question:
–

 , immediately, when being overtaken.
–
 
flashing , after a delay of about one second, 
when overtaking a vehicle slowly
, and when the 
direction indicator is used.
Activation/Deactivation
It is set via the Driving/Vehicle touch 
screen menu.
When the function is activated, this 
indicator lamp comes on in the instrument 
panel.
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.

by the Service warning lamp coming on and the 
display of a message.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a 
qualified workshop.
The system may be temporarily disturbed  by certain climatic conditions (e.g.   rain, 
hail).
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 
sensors 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 front and rear bumpers with adhesive 
labels or other objects; they may hamper 
correct operation of the system.
Parking sensors

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 
within the sensors’ detection zone.
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 signalDepending on version, with 
PEUGEOT Connect Radio or 
PEUGEOT Connect Nav, pressing this button 
opens the window for adjusting the volume of 
the audible signal.
Visual assistance 
 
This supplements the audible signal by 
displaying bars on the screen that represent 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
The settings are changed via  the   Driving/Vehicle   touch screen menu.
The system status is memorised when the 
ignition is switched off.
The rear parking sensors system will be  deactivated automatically if a trailer or 
bicycle carrier is connected to a towing device 
installed in accordance with the 
manufacturer's recommendations.
The parking sensors are deactivated while the 
Park Assist function is measuring a space.

For more information, refer to the 
General recommendations on the use 
of driving and manoeuvring aids .
 
 
With the engine running, these systems allow 
views of your vehicle’s close surroundings to be 
displayed on the touch screen using one camera 
for Visiopark 1 and two cameras for Visiopark 2.
 
 
 
 
The screen is divided into two parts with a 
contextual view and a view from above the 
vehicle in its close surroundings.
The parking sensors supplement the information 
on the view from above the vehicle.
Various contextual views may be displayed:
–  
Standard view
 .
–
 
180° view
 .
–
 
Zoom view
 .
AUTO mode is activated by default.
In this mode, the system chooses the best 
view
  to display   (standard or zoom).
You can change the type of view at any time 
during a manoeuvre.
►
 
Press the button in the bottom left-hand 
corner of the touch screen.
►
 
Select the type of view:
•
  "Standard view".
•
  "180° view". •
  "Zoom view".
•   "AUTO view".
The display is immediately updated with the type 
of view selected.
The system status is not saved when the ignition 
is switched off.
Operating principle 
 
Using one or two cameras, the close 
surroundings of the vehicle are recorded whilst 
manoeuvring at low speed.
An image from above your vehicle in its close 
surroundings is reconstructed (represented 
between the brackets) in real time and as the 
manoeuvre progresses.
It facilitates the alignment of your vehicle when 
parking and allows obstacles close to the vehicle 
to be seen. It is automatically deleted if the 
vehicle remains stationary for too long.
With Visiopark 2, the image is created using 
both cameras, when going forward and when 
reversing.
When the function is activated, it is possible 
that the view from above is not displayed. If   CarM an uals 2 .c o m

approached at the level of the red line (less than 
30
  cm) during a manoeuvre.
Standard view 
 
The area behind the vehicle is displayed on the 
screen.
The blue lines  1 represent the width of your 
vehicle, with the mirrors unfolded; their direction 
changes according to the position of the steering 
wheel.
The red line  2 represents a distance of 30   cm 
from the rear bumper; the two blue lines  3 and 4 
represent 1
  m and 2   m, respectively.
This view is available with AUTO mode or in the 
view selection menu.
Zoom view 
 
The camera records the vehicle's surroundings 
during the manoeuvre in order to create a 
view from above the rear of the vehicle in its 
near surroundings, allowing the vehicle to be 
manoeuvred around nearby obstacles.
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 monitor the sides of the 
vehicle during the manoeuvre, using the 
mirrors.
