lighting
With the "Automatic illumination of headlamps"
function activated, under low ambient light, the
sidelamps, dipped beam headlamps and door
mirror spotlamps come on automatically when
the vehicle is unlocked.
Activation, deactivation and the duration
of the exterior welcome lighting are set in
the Driving / Vehicle menu of the touch screen.
Door mirror spotlamps
These spotlamps facilitate access to the vehicle
by lighting the ground near the front doors.
The spotlamps come on automatically:
– when the vehicle is unlocked.
– when a door is opened.
– when a request to locate the vehicle is received
from the remote control.
They also come on with the welcome lighting and
guide-me-home lighting functions.
They go off automatically after 30 seconds.
DS NIGHT VISION
In conditions oflow exterior light, the system uses
an infrared camera at the front of the vehicle
toidenty and signal the presence of pedestrians
and animals in the driver’s field of vision.
To benefit from the permanent display of the
infrared camera image in the instrument panel,
select the "Night Vision" display mode by turning
the knob on the left-hand side of the steering
wheel. When the conditions are met, an alert is
triggered if there is a risk of collision.
The permanentdisplay disappears upon
switching off the ignition or if the conditions are
not met.
DS NIGHT VISION is a driving aid system
that cannot, under any circumstances,
replace the personal assessment of night-time
visibility and traffic conditions.
In some conditions, the contrasts in
temperature are insufficient and the system
may not detect all dangers or, conversely, it
may give false warnings (e.g. engines of lorries
parked on the edge of the road).
Conditions for operation
– With the engine running and in Stop mode
ofStop & Start.
– Very low light conditions with dipped beam
headlamps on and in good working order.
– Temperature between -30°C and +28°C.
– Speed below 99 mph (160km/h).
– Detection of animals taller than 0.50 m.
Operation
Activation/deactivation of the function is
done in the Driving/Vehicle menu of the
touch screen.
If all the operating conditions are met, this
indicator lamp comes on in green: the
display in the instrument panel (with "Night
Vision" mode selected) and triggering of alerts
are available.
