Peugeot 308: Long-distance blind spot monitoring
For more information, refer to the General recommendations on the use of driving and manoeuvring aids.
This system warns the driver of vehicles approaching rapidly from the rear in adjacent lanes (up to around 75 m) and of the presence of a vehicle in the blind spots of their vehicle, using corner radars located in the rear bumper.
This system takes into account vehicles such as cars, lorries and motorcycles by monitoring the blind spots or areas hidden from the driver's field of vision.
A warning lamp appears in the door mirror on the side in question:
- Fixed, immediately when another vehicle is in the blind spot or is approaching in an adjacent lane.
- Flashing, after about 1 second when the direction indicator is used.
Activation/Deactivation
It is configured in the ADAS
touch screen
application.
When starting the vehicle, the warning lamp comes on in each mirror to indicate that the system is activated.
The status of the system is memorised when the ignition is switched off.
The system is automatically deactivated when towing with a towing device approved by PEUGEOT.
Operating conditions
- All vehicles are moving in the same direction and in adjacent lanes.
- When overtaking a vehicle, the speed difference is less than 9 mph (15 km/h).
- Traffic is flowing normally.
- Overtaking a vehicle over a certain period of time and the vehicle being overtaken remains in the blind spot.
Operating limits
No alert is triggered in the following conditions:
- presence of stationary objects (e.g. parked vehicles, safety rails, lampposts, signs).
- vehicles travelling in the opposite direction.
- if the rear bumper is damaged.
It is possible that warnings are not given, are given too late or seem unjustified.
This system does not replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver. Always check in the mirrors and look over your shoulders before changing lanes to avoid an accident.
If the rear bumper is to be repainted, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop; certain types of paint could interfere with the operation of the radars.
Malfunction
If the event of a malfunction,
this warning
lamp lights up on the instrument panel,
accompanied by the display of a message.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
The system may be temporarily disturbed by certain weather conditions (e.g. heavy rain, hail or extreme temperature changes).
In particular, driving on a wet road or going from a dry to a wet area can cause false alerts (e.g. presence of a cloud of water droplets in the blind spot interpreted as a vehicle).
In bad or wintry weather, ensure that the radars are not covered by mud, ice or snow.
Take care not to cover the warning zone in the door mirrors, or the detection zones on the rear bumper, with adhesive labels or other objects; they may hamper the correct operation of the system.
