For more information, refer to the
General recommendations on the use
of driving and manoeuvring aids.
Cruise control
The driver must hold the steering wheel properly.
When cruise control is activated, the symbol is
displayed in green: by small steering actions,
the system directs the vehicle and keeps it in the
position chosen by the driver, in the traffic lane.
This position is not necessarily the centre of the
lane.
► With the Adaptive cruise control with Stop &
Go function activated, press this button.
The action is confirmed by:
– The indicator lamp in the button lighting up
green.
– The following symbol being displayed on the
instrument panel.
The colour of the symbol on the instrument panel
depends on the operating status of the system:
(grey colour)
One or more operating conditions is not
met; the system is paused.
(green colour)
All operating conditions are met; the
system is active.
The driver can feel movements in the steering
wheel.
The system identifies the limits of the traffic
lane and steers the vehicle inside this lane to
maintain it in the lateral position chosen by the
driver.
To do this, the system uses a camera placed on
the upper part of the windscreen.
The driver can change the position of the vehicle
at any time, by turning the steering wheel, which
suspends the function. The driver positions the
vehicle where they wish to in the lane. When
the driver feels that the vehicle’s position is
appropriate, they maintain it until the function
is reactivated. The system regains control by
regulating on the new defined position.
This function is primarily suitable for driving on
motorways and main roads.
Operating conditions
– Adaptive cruise control active.
– Traffic lane marked out by lines on both sides.
– ESC system operational.
– ASR system activated.
– No trailer detected.
– No 'space-saver' spare wheel in use.
– Vehicle not subject to strong lateral g-forces.
– Direction indicators not activated.
Pausing/Suspending the
system
(orange colour)
System malfunction.
The driver must act promptly if they
believe that the traffic conditions or the
state of the road surface require their
intervention, by moving the steering wheel to
temporarily suspend system operation. Any
intervention on the brake pedal that causes
If the driver no longer wishes to use the system
for a while, they can deactivate it by pressing the
button again.

the steering wheel, the function must be
reactivated by pressing the button again.
In response to action by the driver:
suspension

– Activation of the direction indicators.
– Travelling outside the lane limits.
– Too tight a grip on the steering wheel or
dynamic action on the steering wheel.
– Action on the brake pedal (resulting in a pause
until cruise control is reactivated) or accelerator
pedal (suspension for as long as the pedal is
depressed).
Automatic pause
If the system detects that the driver is not
holding the wheel firmly enough, it
triggers a series of gradual alerts and then
deactivates itself if there is no response from
the driver.
– Triggering of the ESC.
– Prolonged failure to detect one of the lane limit
markings. In this case, the Active lane departure
warning system function can take over, and the
system will reactivate itself once the operating
conditions are met again.
If the function is suspended due to the
prolonged release of the force holding
– Pausing of Adaptive cruise control.
– Deactivation of the ASR.

a message and an audible signal.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
The system helps the driver only if there
is a risk of the vehicle unintentionally
wandering from the lane it is being driven in. It
does not manage the safe driving distance,
vehicle speed or braking.

– Winding roads.
– Presence of a tarmac joint on the road.
For more information, refer to the
General recommendations on the use
of driving and manoeuvring aids.
The driver must hold the steering wheel with
both hands in a way that allows control to
be maintained in circumstances where the
system is not able to intervene (for example, if
the central dividing line disappears).
Risk of undesirable operation
The system should be deactivated in the
following situations:
– Driving with a "space-saver" type spare
wheel.
– When towing or with a bicycle carrier
attached to a towing device, particularly when
The system corrects the vehicle's trajectory by
alerting the driver as soon as it detects a risk of
involuntary lane departure or crossing of a verge
or hard shoulder (depending on version).
To do this, the system uses a camera, placed on
the upper part of the windscreen, identifying the

Driving
detected on the ground or a lane boundary
(e.g. grass verge), it performs the trajectory
correction necessary to restore the vehicle to its
original lane.
The driver will notice a turning movement of the
steering wheel.
This warning lamp flashes during
trajectory correction.
While the direction indicators are activated and
for a few seconds after switching them off, the
system considers that a change of trajectory is
intentional and no correction is triggered during
this period.
The driver can prevent the correction by
firmly holding the steering wheel
(e.g. during an emergency manoeuvre).
The correction is interrupted immediately if
the direction indicators are operated.

– Activation of the direction indicators.
– Crossing the inside line on a bend.
– Driving on a tight bend.
– Inactivity by the driver detected during
correction.

the system is recommended).
– Dynamic driving style detected, pressure on
the brake or accelerator pedal.
The system goes into standby automatically in
the following cases:
– ESC deactivated or operation triggered.
– Speed below 43 mph (70 km/h) or greater
than 112 mph (180 km/h).

Driving
The following situations may interfere
with the operation of the system or
prevent it from working:
Deactivation/Activation
– Insufficient contrast between the road
surface and the verge or hard shoulder
(e.g. shade).
– Lane markings worn, hidden (snow, mud)
or multiple (roadworks, etc.),
– Close proximity to the vehicle in front (lane
markings may not be detected).
– Roads that are narrow, winding.
Depending on the country of sale, the
printing of the Blind spot sensors symbol
in the mirror does not necessarily mean that
the function is present on the vehicle.
► Press this button to deactivate/reactivate the
system at any time.
The indicator lamp comes on when the function
is activated.
The state of the system is stored when the
ignition is switched off.
Risk of undesirable operation
The system should be deactivated in the
following situations:
– When changing a wheel or working near a
wheel.
– Towing or with a bicycle carrier on a towing
device, especially with trailer not plugged in or
not approved.
– Road in poor condition, unstable or with very
poor grip (risk of aquaplaning, snow, ice).
– Adverse weather conditions.
– Driving on racing circuits.
This system warns the driver of a potential
danger posed by the presence of another vehicle
(car, lorry, motorcycle) in the vehicle's blind
spots (areas hidden from the driver's field of
vision) using sensors located on the sides of the
bumpers.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, these
warning lamps light up on the
instrument panel, accompanied by the display of
a message and an audible signal.
