Peugeot Partner 2008-2018 Owner's Manual Safety Active City Brake

99Driving safelySAFETY5Partner-2-VU_en_Chap05_Securite_ed02-2016ACTIVE CITY BRAKEActive City Brake is a driving assistance system that aims to avoid a frontal collision or reduce the speed of an impact if the driver does not react sufficiently (inadequate brake application).This system is designed to improve driving safety.It remains the driver's responsibility to continuously monitor the state of the traffic and to assess the distances and relative speeds of other vehicles.Active City Brake can in no circumstances replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.Never look at the laser sensor through an optical instrument (magnifying glass, microscope...) at a distance of less than 10centimetres: risk of eye injury.PrincipleUsing a laser sensor located at the top of the windscreen, this system detects a vehicle running in the same direction or stationary ahead of your vehicle.When necessary, the vehicle's braking system is operated automatically to avoid a collision with the vehicle ahead.Automatic braking occurs later than if done by the driver, so as to intervene only when there is a high risk of collision.Conditions for activationActive City Brake only operates if the following conditions are met:●ignition on,●the vehicle is in a forward gear,●speed is between about 3 and 18mph (5 and 30 km/h),●the braking assistance systems (ABS, EBFD, emergency braking assistance) are not faulty,●the trajectory control systems (ASR, DSC) are not deactivated or faulty,●the vehicle is not in a tight corner,●the system has not been triggered during the previous 10 seconds.
100Driving safelyPartner-2-VU_en_Chap05_Securite_ed02-2016OperationWhen your vehicle is too close to or approaches the vehicle ahead too quickly the system automatically applies the brakes to avoid a collision.You are then alerted by the display of a message.The brake lamps on your vehicle come on to warn other road users.The collision can be avoided automatically if the difference in speed between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead does not exceed 9 mph (15km/h).Above this threshold, the system will do what is possible to avoid or reduce the accident by lowering the speed of impact.The automatic braking may bring the vehicle to a complete stop if the situation requires it.In this case, the vehicle is held stationary temporarily (for about 1.5seconds) to allow the driver to take back control by pressing the brake pedal.The triggering of the system may cause the engine to stall, unless the driver depresses the clutch pedal quickly enough during automatic braking.During automatic braking, the driver can always obtain a higher rate of deceleration than that controlled by the system, by pressing firmly on the brake pedal.After an impact, the system is automatically put out of service: it no longer operates.You must go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop to have the system made operational again.Operating limitsThe system only detects vehicles that are stationary or moving in the same direction as your vehicle.It does not detect small vehicles (bicycles, motorcycles), pedestrians or animals, nor non-reflective stationary objects.The system is not triggered or is interrupted if the driver:-accelerates strongly-or turns the steering wheel suddenly (avoiding manoeuvre).In difficult weather conditions (very heavy rain, snow, fog, hail...), braking distances increase, which can reduce the ability of the system to avoid a collision.The driver must therefore remain particularly vigilant.Never leave accumulations of snow or any object projecting above the bonnet or in front of the roof: this might fall into the field of vision of the sensor and generate a detection.
101Driving safelySAFETY5Partner-2-VU_en_Chap05_Securite_ed02-2016DeactivationThe system is deactivated in the vehicle configuration menu, accessible with the ignition on.Its state is memorised when the ignition is switched off.When the system is deactivated, a message is displayed every time the ignition is switched on, to warnyou.With the monochrome screen CFPress the MENU button for access to the main menu.FSelect "Personalisation-Configuration".FSelect "Define vehicle parameters".FSelect "Driving assistance".FSelect "Automatic emergency braking: OFF" or "Automatic emergency braking: ON".FPress the "7" or "8" button to check or uncheck the box and activate or deactivate the system respectively.FPress the "5" or "6" button, then the OK button to select the "OK"box and confirm or the Back button to cancel.With the touch screenFPress the "MENU" button.FSelect the "Driving" menu.FIn the secondary page, select "Vehicle settings".FSelect the "Driving assistance" tab.FCheck or uncheck the "Auto emergency braking" box to activate or deactivate the system.FConfirm.
102Driving safelyPartner-2-VU_en_Chap05_Securite_ed02-2016Operating faultsSensor faultThe operation of the laser sensor may suffer interference from accumulations of dirt or misting of the windscreen. In this case you are warned by the display of a message.Use the windscreen demisting and regularly clean the area of the windscreen in front of the sensor.Do not stick or otherwise fix any object on the windscreen in front of the sensor.System faultIn the event of a malfunction of the system, you are warned by an audible signal and the display of the message " Automatic braking system fault ".Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.In the event of an impact to the windscreen at the sensor, deactivate the system and contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshopto have your windscreen replaced.Never try to remove, adjust or test the sensor.Only a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop is able to work on the system.When towing a trailer or when the vehicle is being towed, the system must be deactivated.
