The distraction or loss of attention  
detection system may be impaired or may  
not work, especially in the following  
conditions:  
Driver Attention Alert by  
camera  
DS Driver Attention Monitoring  
– system’s camera field of vision blocked or  
obstructed.  
– wearing certain types of spectacles or  
sunglasses that are very dark or reflective.  
– face partially covered (by your hand, hair,  
etc.).  
– unusual or incorrect driving position.  
In no case shall the Manufacturer be held  
liable in the event of alerts not being given or  
for consequences associated with the use of  
this system.  
In versions offering this function, an  
additional (infrared) camera is fitted on  
the steering column, behind the steering wheel, to  
monitor driver behaviour.  
Using a camera placed at the top of the  
windscreen, the system assesses the  
driver's level of vigilance, fatigue or distraction by  
identifying variations in trajectory compared to  
the lane markings.  
This system is particularly suited to fast roads  
(speed higher than 40 mph (65 km/h)).  
At a first-level alert, the driver is warned by the  
Take care!” message, accompanied by an audible  
signal.  
The camera analyses, firstly, the direction of the  
driver's gaze and head to assess their distraction  
level and, secondly, the closing of their eyelids to  
assess the level of their vigilance and attention.  
When the vigilance level (distraction or loss of  
attention) is low, the system emits an alert.  
With the “Personal” display mode of the digital  
instrument panel, the driver can select the  
permanent display of the “Vigilance level”  
diagram so that they can monitor this information  
in real time.  
Lane Departure Warning  
System  
Refer to the General recommendations on the use  
of driving and manoeuvring aids.  
This system, using a camera which recognises  
solid or broken lines, detects the involuntary  
crossing of longitudinal traffic lane markings on  
the ground.  
If the driver's attention drops and the speed  
is higher than 37 mph (60 km/h), the system  
triggers a warning if there is an unexpected  
change of direction.  
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.  
The function activates over 16 mph (25  
km/h).  
This system is particularly useful on motorways  
and main roads.

– The driver must hold the wheel with both  
hands.  
– The change of trajectory must not be  
accompanied by operation of the direction  
indicators.  
Malfunction  
In the event of a malfunction, this warning  
lamp comes on on the instrument panel,  
accompanied by the display of a message and an  
audible signal.  
– The ESC system must be activated and not  
faulty.  
Deactivation / Activation  
Contact a dealer or a qualified workshop.  
The function is activated automatically when the  
ignition is switched on.  
The system helps the driver only when  
Active Lane Departure  
Warning System  
Refer to the General recommendations on the use  
of driving and manoeuvring aids.  
there is a risk of the vehicle involuntarily  
wandering from the lane it is being driven in. It  
does not manage the safe driving distance, the  
speed of the vehicle or the brakes.  
The driver must hold the steering wheel with  
both hands in a way that allows control to  
be maintained in circumstances where the  
system is not able to intervene (for example, if  
the dividing line marking disappears).  
Using a camera located at the top of the  
windscreen to identify lane markings on the  
road and at the edges of the road (depending on  
version), the system corrects the trajectory of the  
vehicle while alerting the driver if it detects a risk  
of unintentionally crossing a line or hard shoulder  
(depending on version).  
OFF  
The function is deactivated and activated by  
pressing this button.  
The button indicator lamp lights up to confirm  
deactivation of the function.  
Operation  
This system is particularly useful on motorways  
and main roads.  
Once the system identifies a risk of the vehicle  
involuntarily crossing one of the lane markings  
detected or a lane limit (e.g. grass border), it  
makes the necessary trajectory correction to  
return the vehicle to its initial path.  
The driver will notice a turning movement of the  
steering wheel.  
Detection  
If an unexpected change of direction is  
detected, this warning lamp flashes in the  
instrument panel accompanied by an audible  
signal.  
This warning lamp flashes during  
trajectory correction.  
No warning is transmitted while the direction  
indicator is activated and for approximately 20  
seconds after the direction indicator is switched  
off.  
Conditions for operation  
– The speed of the vehicle must be between 40  
and 112 mph (65 and 180 km/h).  
– The traffic lane must be delimited by a dividing  
line.
