Driving -> Active Safety Brake with Collision Risk Alert for Your Peugeot 308 4 Door 2021-2025

Driving  
– Wearing thick gloves.  
– Poor visibility (insufficient road lighting,  
snowfall, rain, fog).  
deactivates itself if there is no response from  
the driver.  
The speed will be reduced by a  
maximum of 16 mph (25 km/h) for  
versions with camera only, or by a maximum  
of 31 mph (50 km/h) for versions with camera  
and radar.

– Dazzle (headlamps of an oncoming vehicle,  
low sun, reflections on a wet road surface,  
leaving a tunnel, alternating light and shade).  
– Windscreen area in front of the camera  
dirty, misted up, frost-covered, snow-covered,  
damaged or covered by a sticker.  
– Lane markings eroded, partially hidden (snow,  
mud) or multiple (roadworks, surface joints).  
– Travelling in a tight bend.  
Malfunction  
In the event of a malfunction, this warning  
lamp lights up 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.  
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a  
qualified workshop.  
This system is comprised of three functions:  
– Collision Risk Alert.  
– Intelligent emergency braking assistance  
(iEBA).  
– Active Safety Brake (automatic emergency  
braking).  
– Winding roads.  
– Road surface repairs.  
Active Safety Brake with  
Collision Risk Alert and  
Intelligent emergency  
braking assistance  
The system must not be activated in the  
following situations:  
– When changing a wheel or working near a  
wheel.  
Towing or with a bicycle carrier on a towing  
device, especially with trailer not plugged in or  
not approved.  
For more information, refer to the  
General recommendations on the use  
of driving and manoeuvring aids.  
– Adverse weather conditions.  
– Road with low grip (risk of aquaplaning,  
snow, ice).  
– Road works and toll areas.  
– Driving on racing circuits.  
– Driving on a rolling road.  
The vehicle has a multifunction camera located  
at the top of the windscreen and, depending on  
version, a radar located in the front bumper.  
This system:  
– warns the driver that their vehicle is at risk of  
collision with the vehicle in front, a pedestrian or,  
depending on version, a cyclist.  
– reduces the vehicle's speed to avoid a  
collision or limit its severity.  
If the system detects that the driver is not  
holding the steering wheel firmly enough,  
it triggers a series of gradual alerts and then  
This system does not replace the need  
for vigilance on the part of the driver.  
This system is designed to assist the driver  
and improve road safety.  
135  
Driving  
It is the driver's responsibility to continuously  
monitor traffic conditions in accordance with  
applicable driving regulations.  
– Before using an automatic car wash, with the  
engine running.  
– When changing a wheel, working near a wheel  
or inside the engine compartment.  
– Before placing the vehicle on a rolling road in  
a workshop.  
Towed vehicle, engine running.  
– Following an impact to the windscreen close to  
the detection camera.  
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 or cyclist present in their traffic  
lane.  
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.  
Modifying the alert trigger threshold  
The trigger threshold determines the sensitivity  
with which the function warns of the risk of  
collision.  
It is configured in the ADAS touch screen  
application.  
► Select one of the 3 preset  
thresholds: "Far", "Medium" or "Near".  
The selected threshold is memorised when the  
ignition is switched off.  
The system is automatically deactivated  
when the use of certain types of  
"space-saver" spare wheel (smaller diameter)  
is detected, or if a fault with the brake pedal  
switch or at least two brake lamps is detected.  
Deactivation/Activation  
By default, the system is automatically activated  
at every engine start.  
It is configured in the ADAS touch screen  
application.  
Deactivation of the system is signalled by  
the illumination of this warning lamp,  
accompanied by the display of a message.  
It can be dangerous to drive if the brake  
lamps are not in perfect working order.  
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.  
The driver must not overload the vehicle  
(keep within the GVW and GTW limits,  
and load height limits for roof bars).  
Operating conditions and  
limits  
Vehicle moving forward.  
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.  
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.  
ESC system operational.  
ASR system activated.  
Seat belts fastened for all passengers.  
Stabilised speed on roads with few bends.  
In the following cases, deactivating the system  
via the driving aids configuration application is  
advised:  
Following an impact, the system is  
automatically deactivated.  
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a  
qualified workshop.  
(orange)  
Level 1: visual alert only, warning you  
that the vehicle in front is very close.  
– Carrying long objects on roof bars.  
136  
Driving  
The message "Vehicle close" is displayed.  
(red)  
Operation  
The system operates subject to the following  
conditions:  
– The vehicle's speed does not exceed 37 mph  
(60 km/h) when a pedestrian is detected.  
– The vehicle's speed does not exceed 50 mph  
(80 km/h) when a stationary vehicle or a cyclist  
is detected.  
Active Safety Brake  
6
Level 2: visual and audible alert, warning  
you that a collision is imminent.  
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.  
– The vehicle's speed is between 6 mph and  
53 mph (10 km/h and 85 km/h) (versions with  
camera only) or 87 mph (140 km/h) (versions  
with camera and radar) when a moving vehicle  
is detected.  
Where the speed of your vehicle is too  
high approaching another vehicle, the  
first level of alert may not be displayed: the  
level 2 alert may be displayed directly.  
Important: the level 1 alert is not displayed  
when there is a stationary obstacle or  
when the "Near" trigger threshold has been  
selected.  
This warning lamp flashes (for  
approximately 10 seconds) as soon as  
the function applies the vehicle’s brakes.  
With an automatic gearbox, in the event of  
automatic emergency braking bringing the  
vehicle to a complete stop, keep the brake pedal  
depressed to prevent the vehicle from moving  
off again.  
With a manual gearbox, in the event of automatic  
emergency braking bringing the vehicle to a  
complete stop, the engine may stall.  
This function, also called automatic emergency  
braking, intervenes following the alerts if the  
driver does not react quickly enough and does  
not operate the vehicle's brakes.  
The system aims to reduce the speed of impact  
or avoid a collision where the driver fails to react.  
Intelligent emergency  
braking assistance (iEBA)  
This function supplements braking in the event  
that the driver brakes, but not enough to avoid a  
collision.  
This assistance will only be provided if the driver  
presses the brake pedal.  
The speed will be reduced by a  
maximum of 16 mph (25 km/h) for  
versions with camera only, or by a maximum  
of 31 mph (50 km/h) for versions with camera  
and radar.  
The driver can maintain control of the  
vehicle at any time by firmly turning the  
steering wheel and/or firmly depressing the  
accelerator pedal.
