Switching the function off
- Place the dial in position 0 or switch off
the ignition to switch everything off.
Good practice
When changing the programmed reference
speed by means of a maintained press,
pay attention as the speed can increase or
decrease rapidly.
Do not use the cruise control on slippery
roads or in heavy traffic.
In the event of a steep slope, the cruise
control cannot prevent the vehicle from
exceeding the programmed speed.
In any event, the cruise control cannot
replace the need to observe the speed
limits, nor can it replace the need for
vigilance and responsibility on the part of
the driver.
It is advisable to leave your feet near the
pedals.
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.
Changing the programmed speed
There are two methods of
memorising a speed higher
than the previous one:
Without using the accelerator:
- 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).
Operating fault
The programmed speed is cleared then
replaced by three dashes. Contact a
CITROËN dealer to have the system
checked.
Using the accelerator:
- exceed the memorised speed until the
speed required is reached,
- press the Set + or Set - button.
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).
Cancelling the programmed reference speed
When the vehicle becomes stationary, after
switching off the ignition, the system no
longer memorises a speed.

SPEED LIMITER "LIMIT"

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.

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.

Driver or passenger side comfort value
The value indicated on the display
corresponds to a level of comfort and not a
temperature in degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit. Automatic operation Do not cover the sunshine sensor,
located on the windscreen behind the
mirror, it is used for regulation of the air
conditioning.
AUTO comfort programme
This is the normal air conditioning system
operating mode.
Press this button, the AUTO
symbol is displayed.
In accordance with the comfort
value selected, the system
controls the distribution, the flow
and the intake of air to guarantee comfort
and a sufficient circulation of air in the
passenger compartment. No further action
on your part is required.
When the engine is cold, to prevent an
excessive diffusion of cold air, the ventilation
will reach its optimum level gradually.
For your comfort, the settings are stored
when the ignition is switched off and are
reinstated the next time the vehicle is
started, if the temperature in the passenger
compartment has not changed significantly;
otherwise, operation resumes in automatic
mode. Turn this control to the left or to
the right to decrease or increase
the value. A setting around the
value 21 provides optimum
comfort.However, depending on your
requirements, a setting between 18 and 24
is usual.

Metal suspension
This equipment adopts long movement limiters
which make it possible to guarantee stable
behaviour both when loaded and when empty.
No action on your part is required except to
ensure that maintenance is carried out and that
the authorised loads are complied with. On board, the increasing or lightening of the
load on the vehicle's platform is detected by
two height sensors. When all of the doors
are closed, the sensors trigger the automatic
compensation and determine the optimum
height of the sill for the vehicle's driving
conditions.
Deactivation of the automatic correction
The control which permits deactivation of the
automatic control is located on the right-
hand side, at the rear of the vehicle.
Two types of suspension are offered.
You must deactivate the automatic
correction manually in the following
situations:
- when working underneath the vehicle,
- when changing a wheel,
- when the vehicle is being transported by lorry, train, ferry, boat, ...
Rear suspension with pneumatic compensation
If fitted on your vehicle, this type of
suspension regulates the variations in the
height of the rear platform of your vehicle
irrespective of the weight of the load, within
the limit of the authorised values. Two functions
1. Automatic correction
2. Manual correction
1 - Automatic correction ofthe height of the rear sill
The pneumatic suspension automatically
regulates the variations in the height of
the rear platform of your vehicle.
The automatic compensation is temporarily
inactive:
- if a door/the tailgate is open,
- when braking or when stopped at a red
light (brake pedal pressed). With the vehicle stationary:
- press and hold,
- release the control.
Deactivation is confirmed by
the diode which is lit. It remains lit for
approximately 30 seconds.
Return to automatic correction
With the vehicle stationary:
- press and hold,
- release the control.
Return to automatic correction is
confirmed by the diode which is switched off.
According to the configurations, a bleep may
be heard during these operations.
A red warning light on your
i n s t r u m e n t p a n e l fl a s h e s i f t h e
height is not at its optimum level and
requires correction, drive slowly until
this warning light is switched off.
