Citroen C3: Driving / Active Safety Brake with Collision Risk Alert
and Intelligent emergency braking assistance
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 vehicle in front or a pedestrian.
- reduces the vehicle's speed to avoid a
collision or limit its severity.
This system is comprised of three functions:
- Collision Risk Alert.
- Intelligent emergency braking assistance.
- 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 avoid
the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
This system is designed to assist the driver
and improve road safety.
It is the driver's responsibility to continuously
monitor the state of the traffic, observing the
driving regulations.

This may cause a slight noise and a slight
sensation of deceleration.
