Driving
These levels of alert are based on the inter-
vehicle time between your vehicle and the
vehicle in front.
They take 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.
Level 1 (orange) : visual alert only,
signalling to you that the vehicle in
front is very close.
The message "
Vehicle close " is
displayed.
Level 2 (red) : visual and audible
alert, warning you that a collision is
imminent.
The message "
Brake! " is displayed.
Where the speed of your vehicle is too fast
approaching another vehicle, the first level
of alert may not be displayed: the level
2 alert may be displayed directly.
Important: alert level 1 is never displayed
when the " Close " trigger threshold has
been selected.
Intelligent emergency
braking assistance
If the driver brakes, but not sufficiently to avoid
a collision, this system will supplement the
braking, within the limits of the laws of physics.
This assistance will only be provided if you
press the brake pedal.
Active Safety Brake
This function, also called automatic emergency
braking, intervenes following the alert if the
driver does not react quickly enough and does
not operate the vehicle's brakes.
It aims to reduce the speed of impact or avoid
a frontal collision by your vehicle where the
driver fails to react.
Operation
The system operates under 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
is detected.
- The vehicle's speed is between 6 mph and
53 mph (10 km/h and 85 km/h) (versions
with camera alone) or 87 mph (140 km/h)
(versions with camera and radar) when
a moving vehicle is detected.
If the camera and/or radar have
confirmed the presence of a vehicle
or a pedestrian, this warning lamp
flashes once the function is acting
on the vehicle's brakes.
With an automatic gearbox, in the event of
automatic emergency braking until the vehicle
comes to a complete stop, keep the brake
pedal pressed down to prevent the vehicle from
starting off again.
With a manual gearbox, in the event of
automatic emergency braking until the vehicle
comes to a complete stop, the engine may stall.
