- never superimpose one over-mat on another.
Reactivation of cruise control
- by recalling the memorised speed:
Following a deactivation, press on button 3. Your vehicle auto-matically resumes the memorised cruise speed displayed in zone A.
- by selecting the current speed:
Press on button 2 or 4 as soon as the desired speed is reached. The information "OFF" will then disap-pear from zone A.
In the event of a malfunction, a message is displayed, accompanied by a sound signal and lighting of the SERVICE warning lamp.

This driving assistance device allows you to select a maximum speed that you wish not to exceed. This has to be a speed greater than 30 km/h (approx. 20 mph).
The speed limiter controls are located on the steering wheel.
Note: The information relating to the limiter is displayed in zone A of the instrument panel.
To select the function
Turn control 1 to position "LIM".
On selection of the function, the last speed memorised and the informa-tion "OFF" will appear:
To adjust the maximum speed
Provided the engine is running, you can adjust the memorised maximum speed, with short or long presses on:
- button 4 to increase the memo-rised maximum speed,
- button 2 to decrease the memo-rised maximum speed.
Note: successive presses modify the memorised speed in steps of 1 km/h (1 mph), a continuous press in steps of 5 km/h (3 mph).
Activation of the maximum speed
When the desired maximum speed is displayed, press button 3 to acti-vate the limitation.
The information "OFF" then disap-pears from zone A.
While the function is active, pressing the accelerator pedal will not enable you to go beyond the programmed speed unless you press the pedal hard down past the tight spot (see "Temporary exceeding of the maxi-mum speed").
Note: The vehicle speed may vary slightly from that memorised.
