– Overtaking a vehicle over a certain period of  
time and the vehicle being overtaken remains in

Malfunction  
In the event of a system  
malfunction, these warning lamps  
come on on the instrument panel, accompanied  
by an onscreen message and an audible signal.  
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT  
dealer or a qualified workshop.  
The warning is given by a fixed warning lamp  
that appears in the door mirror on the side in  
question:  
– immediately, when being overtaken;  
– after a delay of about one second, when  
overtaking a vehicle slowly.  
Blind Spot Monitoring  
System  
Refer to the General recommendations on the  
use of driving and manoeuvring aids.  
You are driving on a straight or slightly curved  
road.  
Your vehicle is not pulling a trailer, a caravan,  
etc.  
Activation / Deactivation  
It is set via the Driving / Vehicle touch  
screen menu.  
Operating limits  
When the function is activated, this  
warning lamp comes on in the instrument  
panel.  
When starting the vehicle, the warning lamp  
comes on in each mirror to indicate that the  
system is activated.  
The state of the system stays in the memory  
when switching off the ignition.  
This system includes sensors, placed on the  
sides of the bumpers, and warns the driver of  
the potentially dangerous presence of another  
vehicle (car, truck, motorcycle) in the blind spot  
areas of their vehicle (areas hidden from the  
driver's field of vision).  
The system is automatically deactivated  
when towing with a towing device  
approved by PEUGEOT.  
Conditions for operation  
– All vehicles are moving in the same direction  
and in adjacent lanes.

operation.  
The speed of the vehicle must be between 40  
and 87 mph (65 and 140 km/h).  
These functions are especially suitable for  
driving on motorways and main roads.  
For more information on the Active Lane  
Keeping Assistance and Blind Spot  
Monitoring System, refer to the corresponding  
sections.  
The system may suffer temporary  
interference in certain weather conditions  
(rain, hail, etc.).  
In particular, driving on a wet surface or  
moving from a dry area to a wet area can  
cause false alerts (for example, the presence  
of a fog of water droplets in the blind spot  
angle is 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.  
Parking sensors  
Refer to the General recommendations on the  
use of driving and manoeuvring aids.  
No alert is triggered in the following conditions:  
– In the presence of non-moving objects (parked  
vehicles, barriers, street lamps, road signs, etc.).  
– Oncoming traffic.  
– Driving on a winding road or a sharp corner.  
– When overtaking or being overtaken by a very  
long vehicle (lorry, bus, etc.) that is detected  
in the rear blind spot but is also present in the  
driver’s front field of vision.  
Active Blind Spot  
Monitoring System  
Using sensors located in the bumper, this  
system signals the proximity of obstacles  
(e.g. pedestrian, vehicle, tree, barrier) present in  
their field of detection.  
– When overtaking quickly.  
– In very heavy traffic: vehicles detected in  
front and behind are confused with a lorry or a  
stationary object.  
In addition to the fixed warning lamp in the door  
mirror on the side in question, a correction of  
trajectory will be felt if you attempt to cross  
a lane marking with the direction indicator  
activated, to help you avoid a collision.  
This system is the combination of the Active  
Lane Keeping Assistance and Blind Spot  
Monitoring System.  
– If the Park Assist function is activated.  
Rear parking sensors  
The system is switched on by engaging reverse  
gear, which is confirmed by an audible signal.  
The system is switched off when disengaging  
reverse gear.  
Malfunction  
In the event of a malfunction, this  
warning lamp flashes for a few  
moments in the instrument panel, accompanied
