It is the driver's responsibility to continuously  
monitor traffic conditions in accordance with  
applicable driving regulations.  
Service warning lamp comes on and  
this (orange) symbol appears on the instrument  
panel, accompanied by the display of a message  
and an audible signal.  
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.  
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.  
Have it checked by a dealer or a qualified  
workshop.  
This system is comprised of three functions:  
– Collision Risk Alert.  
– Intelligent emergency braking assistance  
(iEBA).

Collision Risk Alert  
This function warns the driver that their vehicle  
is at risk of a collision with the vehicle in front or  
with a pedestrian present in their traffic lane.  
Level 2: visual and audible alert, warning  
you that a collision is imminent.  
– Before placing the vehicle on a rolling road in a  
workshop.  
The message "Brake!" is displayed.  
Level 3: in some cases, a vibration alert in the  
form of micro-braking can be given, confirming  
the risk of collision.  
– Towed vehicle, engine running.  
– Following an impact to the windscreen close to  
the detection camera.  
Modifying the alert trigger threshold  
This trigger threshold determines the sensitivity  
with which the function warns of the risk of  
collision.

high approaching another vehicle, the  
The system is automatically deactivated

first level of alert may not be displayed: the  
level 2 alert may be displayed directly.  
►ꢀ Select one of the three pre-defined thresholds:  
"Far", "Normal" or "Close".  
Important: the level 1 alert is not displayed  
when there is a stationary obstacle or when  
the "Near" trigger threshold has been selected.  
The last threshold selected is memorised when  
the ignition is switched off.  
It can be dangerous to drive if the brake  
lamps are not in perfect working order.  
Intelligent emergency braking  
assistance (iEBA)  
This function supplements braking in the event  
that the driver brakes, but not enough to avoid a  
collision.  
Operation  
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.  
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.  
This assistance will only be provided if the driver  
presses the brake pedal.  
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.  
Following an impact, the system is  
automatically deactivated.  
Have it checked by a dealer or a qualified  
workshop.

Level 1: visual alert only, warning you that

braking, intervenes following the alerts if the  
driver does not react quickly enough and does not  
operate the vehicle's brakes.  
The function comprises the "Driver Attention  
Warning" and "Driver Attention Warning by  
Camera" systems, combined, depending on  
version, with the "DS DRIVER ATTENTION  
MONITORING" system.  
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.
