mph (50 km/h) (versions with camera and

radar).

Malfunction

In the event of a malfunction, these

warning lamps light 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.

The system also takes motorcyclists and

animals into account; however, animals

below 0.5 m tall and objects on the road are

not necessarily detected.

This system is comprised of three functions:

– Distance Alert.

– Intelligent emergency braking assistance

(iEBA).

– Active Safety Brake (automatic emergency

braking).

Activation/Deactivation

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 vehicle in front, a pedestrian or,

depending on version, a cyclist.

– reduces the vehicle's speed to avoid a

collision or limit its severity.

► Press and hold this button to deactivate or

press brieﬂy to reactivate the system at any time.

Deactivation is signalled by the lighting of the

indicator lamp in the button.

The state of the system is stored when the

ignition is switched oﬀ.

The vehicle has a 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 vigilance on the part of the driver.

This system is designed to assist the driver

and improve road safety.

The speed will be reduced by a

maximum of 12 mph (20 km/h) (versions

with camera only) or by a maximum of 31

Driving

It is the driver's responsibility to continuously

monitor traﬃc conditions in accordance with

applicable driving regulations.

– Before using an automatic car wash, with the

engine running.

– Before placing the vehicle on a rolling road in

a workshop.

with a pedestrian or cyclist present in their traﬃc

lane.

Modifying the alert trigger threshold

– Towed vehicle, engine running.

– Damaged front bumper (version with radar).

– Following an impact to the windscreen close to

the detection camera.

This trigger threshold determines the sensitivity

with which the function warns of the risk of

collision.

As soon as the system detects a

potential obstacle, it prepares the braking

circuit in case automatic braking is needed.

This may cause a slight noise and a slight

sensation of deceleration.

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.

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.

Deactivation/Activation

By default, the system is automatically activated

at every engine start.

Operation

The settings are changed via the

It can be dangerous to drive if the brake

lamps are not in perfect working order.

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.

Depending on the degree of risk of collision

detected by the system and the alert trigger

threshold chosen by the driver, several diﬀerent

levels of alert may be triggered and displayed on

the instrument panel.

The system takes account of the vehicle

dynamics, the speed of your vehicle and the one

in front, the environmental conditions and the

operation of the vehicle (actions on the pedals,

steering wheel, etc.) to trigger the alert at the

most relevant moment.

It is possible that 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.

Operating conditions and

limits

ESC system operational.

Following an impact, the system is

automatically deactivated.

Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a

qualiﬁed workshop.

DSC/ASR systems activated.

Seat belts fastened for all passengers.

Stabilised speed on roads with few bends.

In the following cases, deactivating the system

via the vehicle's conﬁguration menu is advised:

– Towing a trailer.

(orange)

Level 1: visual alert only, warning you that

the vehicle in front is very close.

The message "Vehicle close" is displayed.

(red)

Level 2: visual and audible alert, warning

you that a collision is imminent.

Distance Alert

This function warns the driver that their vehicle

is at risk of a collision with the vehicle in front, or

– Carrying long objects on roof bars.

– Vehicle with snow chains ﬁtted.

148

Driving

– The vehicle's speed is between 6 mph and

53 mph (10 km/h and 85 km/h) (versions with

camera only) or 87 mph (140 km/h) (versions

with camera and radar) when a moving vehicle

is detected.

The message "Brake!" is displayed.

Active Safety Brake

Where the speed of your vehicle is too

high approaching another vehicle, the

ﬁrst level of alert may not be displayed: the

level 2 alert may be displayed directly.

Important: the level 1 alert is not displayed

when there is a stationary obstacle or

when the "Near" trigger threshold has been

selected.

This warning lamp ﬂashes (for

approximately 10 seconds) as soon as

the function applies the vehicle’s brakes.

With an automatic gearbox, in the event of

automatic emergency braking bringing the

vehicle to a complete stop, keep the brake pedal

depressed to prevent the vehicle from moving

oﬀ again.

With a manual gearbox, in the event of automatic

emergency braking bringing the vehicle to a

complete stop, the engine may stall.

Intelligent emergency

braking assistance (iEBA)

This function supplements braking in the event

that the driver brakes, but not enough to avoid a

collision.

The driver can maintain control of the

vehicle at any time by ﬁrmly turning the

steering wheel and/or ﬁrmly depressing the

accelerator pedal.

This assistance will only be provided if the driver

presses the brake pedal.

This function, also called automatic emergency

braking, intervenes following the alerts if the

driver does not react quickly enough and does

not operate the vehicle's brakes.

The system aims to reduce the speed of impact

or avoid a collision where the driver fails to react.

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.

Operation

The system operates subject to the following

conditions:

– The vehicle's speed does not exceed 37 mph

(60 km/h) when a pedestrian is detected.

– The vehicle's speed does not exceed 50 mph

(80 km/h) when a stationary vehicle or a cyclist

is detected.

Malfunction

In the event of a malfunction, this warning

lamp lights up on the instrument panel,

149

Driving

accompanied by the display of a message and

an audible signal.

Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a

qualiﬁed workshop.

Activation/Deactivation

Driver Attention Alert by

camera

Depending on version, the Driver Attention

Alert system may be combined with the Driver

Attention Alert by camera system.

This function is set via the touch screen

Driving/Vehicle menu.

The state of the system is memorised when the

ignition is switched oﬀ.

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.

Driver Attention Alert

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).

Distraction detection

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.

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 Alert" system alone

or combined with the "Driver Attention Alert by

camera" system.

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.

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.

– 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).

Take a break if you are feeling tired or at least

every 2 hours.
