CRUISE CONTROL "CRUISE"
In order for it to be programmed or
activated, the vehicle speed must be
greater than 25 mph (40 km/h) with at
least 4th gear engaged. This cruise control shows the function
selection status on the instrument
panel and displays the programmed
speed:
Function
selected,
displaying of the
"Cruise Control"
symbol.
Function deactivated,

OFF (example at
65 mph (107 km/h)).
Function activated
(example at
65 mph (107 km/h)).
Vehicle speed above
(e.g. 70 mph
118 km/h)),
the programmed
speed is displayed
fl ashing.
Operating fault
detected,

OFF - the dashes
fl ash.
"This is the speed at which the driver
wishes to drive".
This aid to driving in free-fl owing
traffi c enables the vehicle to maintain
the speed programmed by the driver,
unless a steep gradient makes this
impossible.

Steering wheel controls
Selecting the function
- Place the switch in the CRUISE
position. The cruise control is
selected but is not yet active and
no speed has been programmed.
First activation/
programming a
speed
- Reach the chosen speed by pressing the
accelerator.
- Press the SET - or

SET + button.
This programmes/activates the
reference speed and the vehicle will
maintain this speed. Temporary exceeding of
the speed
It is possible to
accelerate and drive
momentarily at a speed greater than
the programmed speed. The value
programmed fl ashes.
When the accelerator pedal is
released, the vehicle will return to the
programmed speed.
Deactivation (off)
- Press this button or the brake or clutch
pedal. Reactivation
- Following deactivation of the cruise
control, press this button.
Your vehicle will return to the last
programmed speed.
Alternatively, you can repeat the "fi rst
activation" procedure.

Changing
the programmed
speed
There are two methods
of memorising a
speed higher than the
previous one: Switching the function off
Operating fault
The programmed speed is cleared
then replaced by three dashes.
Contact a CITROËN dealer to have the
system checked.
Cancelling the programmed
reference speed
When the vehicle becomes stationary,
after switching off the ignition, the
system no longer memorises a speed.
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).
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). - 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 traffi c.
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 fi xings
on the fl oor are positioned correctly,
- never place one mat on top of another.

50
Steering wheel controls However, pressing the pedal beyond
this point of resistance to the fl oor
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.

The operating actions may be
carried out when stationary, with the
engine running, or with the vehicle
moving. This speed limiter shows the function
selection status on the instrument
panel and displays the programmed
speed:
SPEED LIMITER "LIMIT"
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
fl ashing.
Operating fault
detected,

OFF - the dashes
fl ash.
"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).
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). Activation/Deactivation (off)
Pressing this button once activates
the limiter, pressing the button again
deactivates it (OFF).

Steering wheel controls
Exceeding the programmed
speed
Pressing the accelerator pedal in order
to exceed the programmed speed
will have no effect unless you press
the pedal fi rmly beyond the point of
resistance .
The limiter is deactivated temporarily
and the programmed speed fl ashes.
To return to the limiter function, reduce
your speed to below the programmed
speed. 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. Operating fault
The programmed speed is cleared
then replaced by three dashes.
Contact a CITROËN dealer to have the
system checked.
Good practice
Flashing of the speed
The speed fl ashes:
- following forcing of the accelerator point of resistance,
- when the limiter cannot prevent an increase in the vehicle speed due
to the profi le of the road or on a
steep descent,
- in the event of sharp acceleration. 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 profi le
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 fi xings
on the fl oor are positioned correctly,
- never place one mat on top of another.

Intake of exterior air
Recirculation of interior air Air conditioning A/C
The diode on the button
is off. This is the preferred
operating position. Pressing the button triggers
the operation of the air
conditioning, the diode is lit.
Pressing the button again
switches the function off and
the diode is switched off.
The air conditioning does not operate if
the air fl ow is set to 0.
The air conditioning can only operate
with the engine running.
The diode on the button is
lit. Recirculation temporarily
prevents exterior odours
and smoke from entering the
passenger compartment.
Used with the setting of the force of
blown air (from 1 to 4), recirculation
enables you to obtain the required
ambient air comfort level more quickly
with both hot or cold settings.
This position should only be temporary.
When your ambient air comfort level
has been reached, return to the
intake of exterior air position to permit
renewal of the air in the passenger
compartment and avoid misting. This
operating mode is preferable.
