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 or a
pedestrian.
– reduces the vehicle's speed to avoid a
collision or to limit its severity.
This system includes three functions:
– Collision Risk Alert.
– Intelligent emergency braking assistance
(iEBA).
– Active Safety Brake (automatic emergency
braking).
The vehicle has a 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 tra󰀩c 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.
Deactivation/Activation
By default, the system is automatically activated
at every engine start.
The settings are changed via the
Driving/Vehicle touch screen menu.
Deactivation of the system is signalled by
the illumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by the display of a message.
Operating conditions and
limits
Vehicle moving forward without trailer.
Brake system operational.
DSC system activated.
Seat belts fastened for all passengers.
Stabilised speed on roads with no or low
curvature.
This warning lamp lights up on the
instrument panel without any additional
message, to indicate that the automatic braking
system is not available.
This is a normal behavior indicating that a
condition is not fullled and which does not
request the support of a workshop.
In any situations with ignition on where automatic
braking presents a risk, deactivating the
system via the vehicle's conguration menu is
recommended, for instance:
– Towing a trailer (particularly a trailer without its
own braking system).
– Carrying long objects on roof bars.
– Driving with snow chains.
– Using an automatic car wash.
– Performing any maintenance (e.g. changing a
wheel, working inside the engine compartment).
– Placing the vehicle on a rolling bench in a
workshop.
