Deactivating the A.S.R. function results in the E.S.P. function being deactivated. Refer to the information on the “Electronic stability program: E.S.P.” on the following pages.
Operating faults
When the system detects an operat- ing fault the message “Check E.S.P.” appears on the instrument panel along
with the © warning light and warn-
ing light A.
Consult an approved dealer.
Disabling the function
In some situations (driving on very wet ground: snow, mud, etc. or driving with snow chains fitted), the system may reduce the engine output to limit wheel- spin. If this is not required, it is possible to deactivate the function by pressing
switch 1.
The ‘traction control deselected’ mes- sage is displayed on the instrument panel along with warning light A to inform you.
Disabling the function also disables the E.S.P. function.
Correct this as soon as possible by
pressing switch 1 again.
The function is reactivated automati- cally when the ignition is switched on or when a speed of approximately 30 mph (50 km/h) is exceeded.
It is impossible to deselect this function when travelling above a threshold of approximately 30 mph (50 km/h).

Emergency brake assist
This function is an addi- tional aid in the event of critical driving conditions, enabling the vehicle behav- iour to be adapted to suit the driving conditions.
However, the function does not take the place of the driver. It does not increase the vehicle’s limits and should not encourage you to drive more quickly.
Therefore, it can under no circum- stances replace the vigilance or re- sponsibility of the driver when ma- noeuvring the vehicle (the driver must always be ready for sudden in- cidents which may occur when driv- ing).
This system supplements the ABS and helps reduce vehicle stopping dis- tances.
Operating principle
The system is for detecting an emer- gency braking situation. In this case, the braking assistance immediately de- velops maximum power and may trig- ger ABS regulation.
ABS braking is maintained as long as the brake pedal is applied.
Hazard warning lights
switching on
Depending on the vehicle, these may light up in the event of sudden decel- eration.

Speed limiter
ÐIndicator light 6
This indicator light on the in- strument panel lights up to indicate that the limiter function is in operation.
When the function is activated, the mes- sage ‘Limiter ’ appears on the instru- ment panel accompanied by dashes.
Controls
1 Main “On/Off” switch.
2 Limit speed activation, storage and increase switch (+).
3 Limit speed activation, storage and decrease switch ( - ).
4 Switch the function to standby, with limit speed stored (O).
5 Stored limit speed activation, stor- age and recall (R).
The speed limiter function helps you stay within the driving speed limit that you choose.
This may be useful, for example, driving in urban areas or areas with a speed re- striction (roadworks), etc.
The system operates above a driving speed of approximately 20 mph (30 km/ h).

Varying the limit speed
The limit speed may be changed by pressing repeatedly or holding down:
– switch
2 (+) to increase the speed;
– switch
3 (-) to decrease the speed.
The system is designed in such a way that it is possible to detect a dif- ference between the stored speed and the speed shown on the instru- ment panel.
Driving
When a limit speed has been stored, if this speed is not reached the vehicle behaves in a similar way to those with- out the speed limiter function.
From this point, no effort on the accel- erator pedal will allow you to exceed the programmed speed except in an emergency (refer to information on “Exceeding the limit speed”).
Switching on
Press switch 1 on the side showing
Ð. This indicator light on the instru- ment panel comes on.
Limiting the speed
At a steady speed (above 20 mph
(30 km/ h)), press switch 2 (+): the speed is stored.
CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: speed limiter function (2/3)
The speed limiter function is in no way linked to the brak- ing system.

CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: speed limiter function (3/3)
Recalling the limit speed
A stored speed can be recalled by
pressing switch 5 (R) until the message “Speed limiter” is displayed.
Exceeding the limit speed
In the event of an emergency
It is possible to exceed the limit speed at any moment. To do this: press the accelerator pedal firmly and fully (beyond the kickdown point).
Whilst the speed is being exceeded, the cruising speed displayed on the in- strument panel flashes.
When the emergency has passed, re- lease the accelerator pedal: the speed
limiter function will return as soon as you reach a speed lower than the limit speed before the emergency.
Limit speed cannot be maintained
In some driving conditions (for example when driving up or down a steep gradi- ent), the system is unable to maintain the limit speed: the stored speed on the instrument panel information display will flash to inform you of this situation.
Switching off the function
The speed limiter function is interrupted when you press:
– switch
4 (O), in which case the limit speed remains stored and the mes- sage “Stored” appears on the instru- ment panel;
– switch
1, in which case the limit speed is no longer stored, and the in- dicator light on the instrument panel goes out to confirm that the function has been cancelled.

Driving
Once a cruising speed is stored and the cruise control function is active, you may lift your foot off the accelera- tor pedal.
Important: you are never- theless advised to keep your feet close to the pedals in order to react if neces- sary.
The system is designed in such a way that it is possible to detect a dif- ference between the stored speed and the speed shown on the instru- ment panel.
Activating cruise control
At a steady speed (above 20 mph
(30 km/h) approximately) press switch 2
(+) or 3 (-): the speed is stored.
Cruise control activation is confirmed
when indicator light 6 is lit up in green
in addition to indicator light 7.
Switching on
Press switch 1 on the side showing
Ï.
Indicator light
7 on the instrument panel lights up to indicate that the cruise con- trol function is in operation.When the function is activated, the message ‘Cruise control’ appears on the instrument panel accompanied by dashes.

Switching off the function
Press switch 1. If you do this, the speed is not memorised.
The instrument panel green indicator
lights Ï and ¦ go out, con- firming that the function is deactivated.
Recalling the cruising speed
If a speed has been stored, it is possi-
ble to recall it by pressing switch 5 (R), on condition that you are driving faster than 20 mph (30 km/h) and that you are sure that the driving conditions are suitable (traffic, road surface condition, weather conditions, etc.).
Pressing switches 2 (+) or 3 (-) re- activates the cruise control func- tion without taking into account the memorised speed: it is the speed at which the vehicle is moving that is taken into account.
Putting the function on
standby
The function is interrupted when you:
– the switch
4 (O);
– the brake pedal;
– the clutch pedal or shift into neutral
if the vehicle has an automatic gear- box.
In all three cases, the cruising speed is stored.
Standby is confirmed when indicator
light ¦ goes out.
CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: cruise control function (4/4)
Putting the cruise control on standby or switching it off does not cause a rapid reduction in speed: you must brake by depressing the brake pedal.

Operation
With gear lever 1 in position P, start the engine.
With your foot on the brake pedal (warn-
ing light 4 goes out), move the lever out of position P.
Only engage D or R when the vehi- cle is stopped, with your foot on the brake and the accelerator pedal re- leased.
You must apply the brake before pressing unlocking button 2 to move out of position P.

Driving in automatic mode
Move lever 1 to position D.
In most traffic conditions, you will not have to touch the gear selector lever again: the gears will change automati- cally at the right time and at the most suitable engine speed because the au- tomatic system takes into account the vehicle load and road contour and ad- justs itself to the particular driving style you have chosen.
Economical driving
When driving, always leave the lever in position D, keeping the accelerator pedal lightly depressed to ensure au- tomatic gear changes at comparatively low engine speeds.
Accelerating and overtaking
Depress the accelerator pedal firmly and fully (so that it goes beyond the kickdown point).
This will enable you to change down to the optimum gear within the engine range.
