Driving
– Towing or with a bicycle carrier on a towing
device, especially with trailer not plugged in or
not approved.
– Adverse weather conditions.
– Road with low grip (risk of aquaplaning,
snow, ice).
– Road works and toll areas.
– Driving on racing circuits.

If the system detects that the driver is not
holding the steering wheel enough, it
triggers a series of progressive alerts and
then, if there is no response from the driver,
the system deactivates itself.

Active Safety Brake with
Collision Risk Alert and
Intelligent emergency
braking assistance
For more information, refer to the
General recommendations on the use
of driving and manoeuvring aids.
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.
The speed will be reduced by a
maximum of 16 mph (25 km/h) (versions
with camera only) or by a maximum of 31
mph (50 km/h) (versions with camera and
radar).
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.
This system includes three functions:
– Collision Risk Alert.
– Intelligent emergency braking assistance
(iEBA).
– Active Safety Brake (automatic emergency
braking).
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 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.
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.
