Blind Spot Monitoring System
This system warns the driver of the presence of
another vehicle in the blind spot angle of their
vehicle (areas masked from the driver's field
of vision), as soon as this presents a potential
danger.
Activation / Deactivation
Activation and deactivation of the
system is done in the Driving menu
of the touch screen.
Select the "Driving assistance" tab, then
"Blind spot monitoring".
A warning lamp appears in the door mirror on
the side in question:
- immediately, when being overtaken,
- after a delay of about one second, when
overtaking a vehicle slowly.
This system is designed to improve
safety when driving and is in no
circumstances a substitute for the use
of the interior rear view mirror and door
mirrors. It is the driver's responsibility to
constantly check the traffic, to assess
the distances and relative speeds
of other vehicles and to predict their
movements before deciding whether to
change lane.
This system is a driving aid that cannot,
in any circumstances, replace the need
for vigilance on the part of the driver.
This indicator lamp comes on in the
instrument panel.
To deactivate the system, select
"Blind spot monitoring" again in the
"Driving assistance" tab.
The indicator lamp goes off.
Sensors fitted in the front and rear bumpers
monitor the blind spots.
The state of the system remains in memory on
switching off the ignition.
The system is automatically deactivated
when towing with a towbar approved by
PEUGEOT.
