from 4 mph (7 km/h) (and is deactivated at

3 mph (5 km/h)).

The Collision Risk Alert system allows the

driver to be warned that their vehicle is at

risk of collision with the vehicle in front or a

pedestrian in their traffic lane.

The Active Safety Brake system intervenes

following the alert if the driver does not

react quickly enough and does not operate

the vehicle's brakes.

If the driver fails to act, it contributes

towards avoiding a collision or limiting

its severity by reducing the speed of your

The Active Safety Brake system operates:

-

between 3 and 87 mph (5 and 140 km/h), in

the case of a moving vehicle,

at a speed below 50 mph (80 km/h), in the

case of a stationary vehicle,

at a speed below 36 mph (60 km/h), in the

case of a pedestrian,

These systems use a radar located in the

front bumper and a camera at the top of the

windscreen.

Limits of operation

Collision Risk Alert

It is recommended that the system be

deactivated in the vehicle configuration menu

in the following cases:

-

if the front bumper is damaged,

if the system has been triggered in the last

10 seconds,

if the electronic stability control system has

a fault.

Depending on the degree of risk of collision

detected by the system and the alert threshold

chosen, different levels of alert can be

triggered and displayed in the instrument panel

or the head-up display.

-

if the windscreen has impact damage close

to the detection camera,

-

when towing a trailer or caravan,

when a load on the roof rack extends

beyond the windscreen (for example: long

objects),

This information also appears in the

head-up display.

Following an impact, the system

is automatically disabled; contact

a PeugeoT dealer or a qualified

workshop to have the system checked.

-

when the vehicle is being towed, with the

engine running,

when a "space-saver" type spare wheel is

fitted (if your vehicle has one),

when on a rolling road for a service in a

workshop,

For more information on the Head-up

display, refer to the corresponding

section.

if the brake lamps are not working.

Level 1 : visual alert only, warning

you that the vehicle ahead is very

close.

A message on your vigilance is

displayed as you close on the vehicle

ahead.

This level of alert is based on the inter-vehicle

time between your vehicle and the vehicle

ahead.

Level 2: visual and audible alert,

warning you that a collision is

imminent.

A message indicating that you should

Programming the alert

thresholds

The thresholds for triggering an alert determine

how you wish to be warned of the presence of a

vehicle moving or stationary ahead of you, or a

pedestrian in your traffic lane.

With the audio system

In the "Personalisation-configuration"

menu, activate/deactivate "Auto. emergency

braking".

You can select one of three thresholds:

This level of alert is based on the time before

collision. It takes account of the vehicle

dynamics, the speed of your vehicle and the

one in front, the environmental conditions, the

operation of the vehicle (cornering, pedals

pressed, etc.) to trigger the alert at the best

moment.

-

"Distant", to be warned early (cautious

driving).

Then modify the alert threshold.

-

"Normal".

"Close", to be warned later.

With the touch screen

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.

Furthermore, the level 1 alert is never

displayed with the "Close" threshold.

Poor weather conditions (very heavy

rain, accumulation of snow in front of

the radar and the camera) may hinder

the operation of the system, with the

display of an operating fault message.

The system remains out of service until

the message disappears.

In the vehicle settings menu, activate/

deactivate "Collision risk alert and automatic

braking".

Then modify the alert threshold.

Press on "Confirm" to save the change.
