Driving
– presence of stationary objects (e.g. parked
vehicles, safety rails, lampposts, signs).
– vehicles travelling in the opposite direction.
– on winding roads or in case of sharp turns.
– when overtaking or being overtaken by a
very long vehicle (e.g. truck, bus), which is both
detected in a blind spot from behind and present
in the driver's field of vision from the front.
– quick overtaking manoeuvre.
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.
Operating limits
Active Blind Spot
Monitoring System
– very heavy traffic: vehicles detected in front
and behind are confused with a lorry or a
stationary object.
In addition to the fixed warning lamp in the door
mirror on the side in question, a correction of
trajectory will be felt if you attempt to cross
a lane marking with the direction indicator
activated, to help you avoid a collision.
This system is the combination of the Active
Lane Keeping Assistance and Blind Spot
Monitoring.
– activation of the Park Assist function.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, this
warning lamp flashes for a few
moments in the instrument panel, accompanied
by the Service warning lamp coming on and the
display of a message.
These two functions must be activated and in
operation.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
The speed of the vehicle must be between 40
and 87 mph (65 and 140 km/h).
These functions are especially suitable for
driving on motorways and main roads.
For more information on the Active Lane
Keeping Assistance and Blind Spot
Monitoring, refer to the corresponding sections.
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.
No alert is triggered in the following conditions:
