SPEED LIMITER "LIMIT"
However, pressing the pedal beyond this
point of resistance to the floor permits
exceeding of the programmed speed. To
resume use of the limiter, simply reduce
the pressure on the accelerator pedal
gradually and return to a speed below that
programmed. Function selected,
displaying of the "Speed
Limiter" symbol.
Function deactivated,
last programmed
speed - OFF
(example at 65 mph
(107 km/h)).
Function activated
(example at 65 mph
(107 km/h)).
Vehicle speed above
(example 70 mph
(118 km/h)),
the programmed speed
is displayed flashing.
Operating fault detected,
OFF - the dashes flash.
This speed limiter shows the function
selection status on the instrument panel and
displays the programmed speed:
The operating actions may be carried out
when stationary, with the engine running,
or with the vehicle moving.
"This is the selected speed which the driver
does not wish to exceed".
This selection is made with the engine
running while stationary or with the vehicle
moving. The minimum speed which can be
programmed is 20 mph (30 km/h).
The speed of the vehicle responds to the
pressure of the driver ’s foot as far as the
accelerator pedal point of resistance which
indicates that the programmed speed has
been reached.

Selecting the function
- Place the dial in the LIMIT position.
The limiter is selected but is not yet
active. The display indicates the last
programmed speed.
Programming a speed
A speed can be programmed without activating
the limiter but with the engine running.
To memorise a speed higher than the
previous one:
- press the Set + button.
A brief press increases the speed by 1 mph
(km/h).
A maintained press increases the speed in
steps of 5 mph (km/h).
Activation/Deactivation (off)
Pressing this button once activates the
limiter, pressing the button again deactivates
it (OFF).
To memorise a speed lower than the
previous one:
- press the Set - button.
A brief press decreases the speed by 1 mph
(km/h).
A maintained press decreases the speed in
steps of 5 mph (km/h).

Switching the function off
- Place the dial in position 0 or switch off
the ignition to switch the system off.
The last programmed speed remains in the
memory.
Exceeding the programmed speed
Pressing the accelerator pedal in order to
exceed the programmed speed will have
no effect unless you press the pedal firmly
beyond the point of resistance .
The limiter is deactivated temporarily and
the programmed speed flashes.
Good practice
Operating fault
The programmed speed is cleared then
replaced by three dashes.
Contact a CITROËN dealer to have the
system checked.
Flashing of the speed
The speed flashes:
- following forcing of the accelerator point of resistance,
- when the limiter cannot prevent an increase in the vehicle speed due to the
profile of the road or on a steep descent,
- in the event of sharp acceleration.
To return to the limiter function, reduce your
speed to below the programmed speed.
In any event, the speed limiter cannot
replace the need to observe speed limits,
nor can it replace the need for vigilance and
responsibility on the part of the driver.
Always pay attention to the profile of the
road and sharp acceleration and stay in
complete control of your vehicle.
To avoid any jamming under the pedals:
- ensure that the mat and its fixings on the
floor are positioned correctly,
- never place one mat on top of another.
