Semi-automatic lane
changing
(with Drive 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

139
Driving
6road 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.
Selecting the system
Two options:
– Either when the vehicle is already driving on
an eligible road, the driver selects the system by
activating the Drive
Assist 2.0 system.
–

Or when the driver is already using Drive
Assist Plus, 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.
–

by acting on the pedals.
For more information on the Direction
indicators
, refer to the corresponding section.
Operating conditions
– Eligible roads: roads with separate
carriageways with prohibited access for
pedestrians and cyclists.

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




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

140
Driving
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.
Interrupting the lane change
It is possible that while changing lane, the
necessary conditions for the operation of the
system
may no longer be met.


If this occurs before one of the wheels has
crossed the line separating the two lanes, the
system automatically returns the vehicle to
its original lane (confirmed by the display of
a manoeuvre cancellation message on the
instrument panel and an audible signal). The
system is then automatically deactivated.


If this occurs when the lane change has
started, the system prompts the driver to
immediately retake control of the vehicle
(confirmed by the display of a message on the instrument panel and an audible signal), and the
system is automatically deactivated.
Refused lane change
request
When operating the direction indicator or
pressing
2-OK, if the necessary conditions
are not met, the lines appear in orange on the
instrument panel.


The system keeps the vehicle in the original
lane. The system is deactivated and the semi-
automatic lane change is not carried out.

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

.
Below a speed of 19 mph (30 km/h),
automatic emergency braking may slow
down the vehicle to a complete stop.
Otherwise, for versions with camera only
, the
speed may be reduced by a maximum of 16
mph (25
km/h).
For versions with camera and radar, the
speed reduction may be extended to 31 mph

143
Driving
6(50 km/h), if both sensors are able to detect
the thread.
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.
Operating conditions and
limits
Vehicle moving forward without trailer.
Brake system operational.
ASR 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 the driving aids touch screen application is
recommended, for instance:
–

Carrying long objects on roof bars.
–


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 damage of 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).
–

A

severe crash (e.g. with airbag
deployment) is detected.
In case the detection is degraded or
temporarily unavailable by environment
conditions, then a driver indication is not
displayed (because a driver action is not
requested).
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 and GTW limits
and load height limits for roof bars).
