symbol in the mirror does not necessarily

mean that the function is present on the

vehicle.

Operating limits

The settings are changed via the ADAS

touch screen application.

When starting the vehicle, the warning lamp

comes on in each mirror to indicate that the

system is activated.

The status of the system is memorised when the

ignition is switched oﬀ.

This system warns the driver of a potential

danger posed by the presence of another vehicle

(car, lorry, motorcycle) in the vehicle's blind

spots (areas hidden from the driver's ﬁeld of

vision) using sensors located on the sides of the

bumpers.

The system is automatically deactivated

when towing with a towing device

approved by PEUGEOT.

Operating conditions

– All vehicles are moving in the same direction

and in adjacent lanes.

– The speed of your vehicle must be between 7

and 87 mph (12 and 140 km/h).

– When overtaking a vehicle, the speed

diﬀerence is less than 6 mph (10 km/h).

The system may be temporarily disturbed

by certain weather 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.

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.

This system:

– warns the driver that their vehicle is at risk of

collision with the preceding vehicle, a pedestrian

or a cyclist.

– reduces the vehicle's speed to avoid a

collision or to limit its severity.

Below a speed of 19 mph (30 km/h),

automatic emergency braking may slow

down the vehicle to a complete stop.

Otherwise, for versions with camera only, the

speed may be reduced by a maximum of 16

mph (25 km/h).

For versions with camera and radar, the

speed reduction may be extended to 31 mph

(50 km/h), if both sensors are able to detect

the thread.

No alert is triggered in the following conditions:

– 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.

Active Safety Brake with

Collision Risk Alert and

Intelligent emergency

braking assistance

The system also takes motorcyclists into

account.

It may also react on animals. Animals

(especially animals smaller than 0.5 m)

and objects on the road are not necessarily

detected.

– very heavy traﬃc: vehicles detected in front

and behind are confused with a lorry or a

stationary object.

For more information, refer to the

General recommendations on the use

of driving and manoeuvring aids.

This system includes three functions:

– Collision Risk Alert.

– Intelligent emergency braking assistance

(iEBA).

is detected, or if a fault with the brake pedal

switch or at least two brake lamps is detected.

Following a severe crash (e.g. with airbag

deployment), the system is automatically

deactivated.

Seat belts fastened for all passengers.

Stabilised speed on roads with no or low

curvature.

This warning lamp lights up on the

instrument panel without any additional

message, to indicate that the automatic braking

system is not available.

Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a

qualiﬁed workshop.

This is a normal behavior indicating that a

condition is not fulﬁlled and which does not

request the support of a workshop.

In any situations with ignition on where automatic

braking presents a risk, deactivating the

system via the vehicle's conﬁguration menu is

recommended, for instance:

– Towing a trailer (particularly a trailer without its

own braking system).

– Carrying long objects on roof bars.

– Driving with snow chains.

– Using an automatic car wash.

– Performing any maintenance (e.g. changing a

wheel, working inside the engine compartment).

– Placing the vehicle on a rolling bench in a

workshop.

– Towing the vehicle.

– Following a damage of the windscreen close

to the detection camera.

In case the detection is degraded or

temporarily unavailable by environment

conditions, then a driver indication is not

displayed (because a driver action is not

requested).

The vehicle has a multifunction camera located

at the top of the windscreen and, depending on

version, a radar located in the front bumper.

It can be dangerous to drive if the brake

lamps are not in perfect working order.

This system does not replace the need

for driver vigilance.

This system is designed to assist the driver

and improve road safety.

It is the driver's responsibility to continuously

monitor traﬃc conditions in accordance with

applicable driving regulations.

The driver must not overload the vehicle

(keep within the GVW limit and load

height limits for roof bars).

Collision Risk Alert

This function warns the driver if there is a risk

of collision with the preceding vehicle, or with a

pedestrian or cyclist.

As soon as the system detects a

potential collision, it prepares the braking

circuit. This may cause a slight noise and a

slight sensation of deceleration.

It is possible that collision 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.

Operation

Depending on the collision risk detected by the

system and the alert trigger threshold chosen

by the driver, diﬀerent levels of alert may be

triggered and displayed on the instrument panel.

The system takes into account the vehicle

dynamics, the diﬀerence speed of the own

vehicle and the object identiﬁed for the

collision risk, and the operation of the vehicle

(e.g. actions on the pedals, steering wheel) to

trigger the alert at the most relevant moment.

(orange)

This function, also called "automatic emergency

braking", intervenes after the acoustic alert if the

driver does not operate the brake pedal quickly

enough.

The system aims at reducing the speed of

impact or avoiding a collision if the driver fails to

react.

Intelligent emergency

braking assistance (iEBA)

This function increases vehicle deceleration

if the driver does not brake enough to avoid a

collision.

This assistance is only provided if the driver

presses the brake pedal.

Operation

The system operates subject to the following

conditions:

– At reduced speed in an urban environment,

when a stationary vehicle, pedestrian or cyclist

is detected.

Level 1: visual alert only, warning that the

preceding vehicle is very close.

The message "Vehicle close" is displayed.

Deactivation of the system is signalled by

the illumination of this warning lamp,

accompanied by the display of a message.

These warning lamps light up on

the instrument panel and/or in the

warning lamp display for seat belts and front

passenger airbag 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.

With a manual gearbox, in the event of automatic

emergency braking bringing the vehicle to a

complete stop, the engine may stall.

The system cannot be deactivated above

10 km/h.

The driver can override the automatic

emergency braking at any time by

strongly turning the steering wheel (evasive

manoeuver) and/or by ﬁrmly pressing the

accelerator pedal.

Malfunction

The brake pedal may feel hard and

vibrate slightly while the function is

operating.

If the vehicle comes to a complete stop,

automatic braking is maintained for 1 to

2 seconds.

This is a normal behavior, which does not

request the support of a qualiﬁed workshop.

In this case, stop the vehicle and verify if the

front camera or the front radar is covered by dirt,

mud, sand, snow, ice or anything preventing the

sensing.

After three ﬁrst-level alerts, the system triggers

a further alert with the message "Driving at

risk: 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.

Driver Attention Warning by

Camera

6

In certain driving conditions (poor road

surface or strong winds), the system may

give alerts independent of the driver's level of

vigilance.

Take a break if you are feeling tired or at least

every 2 hours.

Driver Attention Warning

The following situations may interfere

with the operation of the system or

prevent it from working:

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).

– Lane positioning assist is active.

– poor visibility (e.g. inadequate street

lighting, heavy rain, thick fog, snowfall).

– dazzle (e.g. headlamps of an oncoming

vehicle, low sun, reﬂections on a damp road,

leaving a tunnel, alternating shade and light).

– windscreen area located in front of the

camera (e.g. dirty, misted, frost-covered,

snow-covered, damaged or masked by a

sticker).

– lane markings absent, worn, hidden

(e.g. snow, mud, dead leaves) or multiple

(roadworks).

– close to the vehicle ahead (lane markings

not detected).

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.

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)).

The system may perform a learning

procedure for up to 30 minutes after the

start of the monitoring.

During this period, the driver's individual

driving behaviour is analysed and no alert is

given.

– 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).

– roads that are narrow, winding.

At a ﬁrst alert level, the driver is warned by

the message "Caution!", accompanied by an

audible signal.
