The cruise control system cannot,
in any circumstances, replace
the need to respect speed limits,
nor can it replace the need for
vigilance and responsibility on the
part of the driver.
You are advised to keep your
feet near the pedals at all times.
CRUISE CONTROL

System which automatically maintains
the speed of the vehicle at the value
programmed by the driver, without any
action on the accelerator pedal.
The functions of this system are grouped
together on the steering mounted con-
trols.

Displays in the instrument panel

Operation

The cruise control is switched on

manually: it requires a minimum ve-
hicle speed of 25 mph (40 km/h) and
engagement of:


- fourth gear on the manual gearbox,

- second gear on the electronic gear-
box system or automatic gearbox, in
sequential driving mode,

-
position A
on the electronic gearbox
system or D
on the automatic gearbox.

The cruise control is switched off
man-
ually or by pressing the brake or clutch
pedal or on triggering of the ESP system
for safety reasons.
It is possible to exceed the programmed
speed temporarily by pressing the ac-
celerator pedal.
To return to the programmed speed,
simply release the accelerator pedal.
Switching off the ignition cancels any
programmed speed value.

DRIVING

When the cruise control is
switched on, be careful if you
maintain the pressure on one of
the programmed speed chang-
ing buttons: this may result in a
very rapid change in the speed
of your vehicle.
Do not use the cruise control on
slippery roads or in heavy traffi c.
On a steep descent, the cruise
control will not be able to prevent
the vehicle from exceeding the
programmed speed.
On steep climbs or when towing,
the programmed speed may not
be reached or maintained.
To avoid any risk of jamming of
the pedals:


- ensure that the mat is posi-
tioned correctly,

- never fi t one mat on top of
another.



Programming



)
Turn dial 1
to the "CRUISE"
po-
sition: the cruise control mode is
selected but is not switched on
(Pause).

)


Set the programmed speed by acceler-
ating to the required speed, then press
button 2
or 3
(e.g.: 70 mph (110 km/h));
the cruise control system is activated
(ON).

You can then change the programmed speed using buttons 2

and 3
:


- by + or - 1 mph (km/h) = short press,

- in steps of + or - 5 mph (km/h) = maintained press.
If storing speeds is available and activated on your vehicle,
the programmed speed will stop at the closest stored speed;
refer to the corresponding section.


)
Stop the cruise control system by pressing button 4
:
this is confi rmed in the screen (Pause).

Intentional or unintentional exceeding of the programmed
speed results in fl ashing of this speed in the screen.
Return to the programmed speed, by means of intentional
or unintentional deceleration of the vehicle, automatically
cancels the fl ashing of the speed.

Exiting cruise control mode



)
Turn dial 1
to the "0"
position: the cruise control mode
is deselected. It disappears from the screen.

)
Switch on the cruise control again with another press
on button 4

tion, the speed is cleared resulting in
fl ashing of the dashes.
