– windscreen area located in front of the
camera: dirty, misted, frost-covered, snow-
covered, damaged or covered by a sticker.
– lane markings absent, worn, hidden (snow,
mud) or multiple (roadworks).
– close to the vehicle in front (lane markings
not detected).
– narrow or winding roads.
This system detects and signals the proximity of
obstacles (e.g. pedestrian, vehicle, tree, barrier)
using sensors located in the bumper.
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)).
At a first alert level, the driver is warned by the
message "Be vigilant!", accompanied by an
audible signal.
In certain driving conditions (poor road
surface or strong winds), the system may
give alerts independent of the driver's level of
vigilance.
Rear parking sensors
► Engage reverse gear to start the system
(confirmed by an audible signal).
The system is switched off when reverse gear is
disengaged.
The following situations may interfere
with the operation of the system or
prevent it from working:
– lane markings absent, worn, hidden (snow,
mud) or multiple (roadworks);
Audible assistance
– close to the vehicle ahead (lane markings
not detected);
– roads that are narrow, winding, etc.
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.
The following situations may interfere
with the operation of the system or
prevent it from working:
– poor visibility conditions (e.g. insufficient
road lighting, snowfall, heavy rain, dense fog).
– dazzle (e.g. headlamps of an oncoming
vehicle, low sun, reflections on a wet road
Parking sensors
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.

General recommendations on the use
