Driving

– With the engine running, the vehicle has been

stationary for more than 15 minutes.

– The ignition has been switched off for a few

minutes.

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.

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 "Level of vigilance"

diagram, which enables them to monitor this

information in real time.

– The driver's seat belt is unfastened and their

door is opened.

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.

As soon as the speed of the vehicle drops

below 43 mph (70 km/h), the system goes

into standby.

The system is activated at speeds above

16 mph (25 km/h).

Driving time starts being counted again once

the speed reaches above 43 mph (70 km/h).

DS DRIVER ATTENTION

MONITORING

The following situations may interfere

with the operation of the system or

prevent it from working:

(Depending on version)

Driver Attention Warning by

Camera

– system’s camera field of vision blocked or

obstructed.

– wearing certain types of spectacles or

sunglasses that are very dark or reflective.

– face partially obscured (e.g. by a hand, by

hair).

– unusual or incorrect driving position.

Under no circumstances shall the

Manufacturer be held liable in the event of

alerts not being given or for the consequences

of using this system.

An additional (infrared) camera is fitted to

the steering column, behind the steering

wheel, to monitor driver behaviour.

Parking sensors

The system assesses the driver's level of

alertness, fatigue and distraction by

identifying trajectory changes in relation to the

lane markings.

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.

For more information, refer to the General

recommendations on the use of driving

and manoeuvring aids.

To do this, the system uses a camera, placed on

the upper part of the windscreen.

which increases as the vehicle approaches the

obstacle.

Front parking sensors

Supplementing the rear parking sensors, the front

parking sensors are triggered when an obstacle

is detected in front and the speed of the vehicle is

below 6 mph (10 km/h).

When the distance between the vehicle and

the obstacle becomes less than about thirty

centimetres, the audible signal becomes

continuous.

Front parking sensor operation is suspended if

the vehicle stops for more than three seconds in

forward gear, if an obstacle is no longer detected

or the vehicle speed exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h).

The sound emitted by the speaker (right or

left) indicates the side on which the obstacle is

located.

This system detects and signals the proximity of

obstacles (e.g. pedestrian, vehicle, tree, barrier)

using sensors located in the bumper.

Adjusting the audible signal

Depending on version, with DS

The sound emitted by the speaker (front

or rear) locates the obstacle relative to

the vehicle, whether in front of or behind it on

its path.

pressing this button opens the window for

adjusting the volume of the audible signal.

Side parking sensors

Visual assistance

Audible assistance

Using four additional sensors located on the sides

of the bumpers, the system records the position

of obstacles during the manoeuvre and indicates

them when they are located alongside the vehicle.

This supplements the audible signal, without

taking account of the vehicle's trajectory, by

displaying bars on the screen whose location

represents the distance between the obstacle

and the vehicle (white: more distant, orange:

close, red: very close).

The system signals the presence of obstacles

which are both within the sensors’ detection zone

and in the vehicle path defined by the direction of

the steering wheel.

Only fixed obstacles are indicated

correctly. Moving obstacles detected at

the beginning of the manoeuvre may be

indicated mistakenly, while moving obstacles

The proximity information is given by an

intermittent audible signal, the frequency of

When the obstacle is very close, the "Danger"

symbol is displayed on the screen.

Malfunction

In the event of a malfunction when

changing into reverse gear, one of

these warning lamps lights up on the instrument

panel, accompanied by the display of a message

and an audible signal (short beep).

Have it checked by a dealer or a qualified

workshop.

The screen is divided into two parts with a

contextual view and a view from above the vehicle

in its close surroundings.

The parking sensors supplement the information

on the view from above the vehicle.

Various contextual views may be displayed:

– Standard view.
