CRUISE CONTROl/SPEED lIMITER: speed limiter function (2/3)
Exceeding the limit speed
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.
Then, release the accelerator pedal:
the speed limiter function will return as
soon as you reach a speed lower than
the stored speed.
limited speed cannot be maintained
When driving down a steep gradient,
the system is unable to maintain the
limit speed: the stored speed will flash
on the instrument panel information dis-
play to inform you of this situation.
The speed limiter function is
in no way linked to the brak-
ing system.
Driving
When a limited speed has been stored
and this speed is not reached, driving is
similar to driving a vehicle without the
speed limiter function.
Once you have reached the stored
speed, no effort on the accelera -
tor pedal will allow you to exceed
the programmed speed except in an
emergency (refer to information on
“Exceeding the limit speed”).
2453
Varying the limit speed
The limit speed may be changed by re-
peatedly pressing:
– switch 2 (+) to increase the speed;
– switch 3 (-) to decrease the speed.

CRUISE CONTROl/SPEED lIMITER: speed limiter function (3/3)
Putting the function on
standby
The speed limiter function is sus -
pended when you press switch 4 (O).
In this case, the limit speed remains
stored and the message “stored” ac -
companied by this speed appears on
the instrument panel.
Recalling the limit speed
If a speed has been stored, it can be re-
called by pressing switch 5 (R).
When the speed limiter is sus -
pended, pressing button 2 (+) or
switch 3 (-) reactivates the func -
tion without taking into account
the stored speed: it is the speed at
which the vehicle is moving that is
taken into account.
Switching off the function
The speed limiter function is interrupted
when you press switch 1. In this case,
the speed is no longer stored. The in -
strument panel orange indicator light
 goes out to confirm that the func -
tion is deactivated.

The cruise control function helps you to
maintain your driving speed at a speed
that you choose, called the cruising
speed.
This cruising speed may be set at any
speed above 20 mph (30 km/h).
Cruise control
CRUISE CONTROl/SPEED lIMITER: cruise control function (1/4)
2453
The cruise control function
is in no way linked to the
braking system.
This function is an addi -
tional driving aid. However,
the function does not take
the place of the driver.
Therefore, it can under no circum -
stances replace the driver’s respon-
sibility to respect speed limits and to
be vigilant (the driver must always
be ready to brake).
Cruise control must not be used in
heavy traffic, on undulating or slip -
pery roads (black ice, aquaplan -
ing, gravel) and during bad weather
(fog, rain, side winds etc.).
There is a risk of accidents.

Switching on
Press switch 1 on the side showing .
Indicator light 6 comes on, lit green,
and the message “cruise control” ap -
pears on the instrument panel, accom-
panied by dashes to indicate that the
cruise control function is activated and
waiting to store a cruising speed.
Important: you are never -
theless advised to keep
your feet close to the pedals
in order to react if neces -
sary.

Driving
Once a cruising speed is memorised
and the cruise control function is active,
you may lift your foot off the accelera -
tor pedal.

Activating cruise controlAt a steady speed (above 20 mph
(30 km/h) approximately) press switch
2 (+) or 3 (-): the function is activated
and the current speed is memorised.
The cruising speed replaces the dashes
and the cruise control is confirmed by
the appearance of a message on the in-
strument panel and indicator light 7 lit
green, as well as indicator light 6.

CRUISE CONTROl/SPEED lIMITER: cruise control function (3/4)
Exceeding the cruising speed
The cruising speed may be exceeded
at any time by depressing the accelera -
tor pedal. While it is being exceeded,
the cruising speed flashes on the in -
strument panel.
Then, release the accelerator: after a
few seconds, the vehicle will automati-
cally return to its set cruising speed.
Cruising speed cannot be
maintained
When driving down a steep gradient,
the system is unable to maintain the
cruising speed: the stored speed will
flash on the instrument panel informa -
tion display to inform you of this situ -
ation.
Adjusting the cruising speed
The cruising speed may be changed by
pressing the following repeatedly:
– switch 2 (+) to increase the speed,
– switch 3 (-) to decrease the speed.
The cruise control function
is in no way linked to the
braking system.

Switching off the function
The cruise control function is deacti -
vated if you press switch 1: in this case
a speed is no longer stored.
The green
 and  indicator lights
on the instrument panel 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 button 5 (R),
on condition that you are driving faster
than 20 mph (30 km/h) and that you are
sure that the road conditions are suit -
able (traffic, road surface condition,
weather conditions, etc.).
Note: if the speed previously stored is
much higher than the current speed,
the vehicle will accelerate more rapidly
to reach this threshold.
When the speed limiter is sus -
pended, pressing buttons 2 (+) or
3 (-) reactivates the cruise control
function without taking into account
the stored speed: it is the speed at
which the vehicle is moving that is
taken into account.
Putting the function on
standby
The function is set to standby if you:
– the brake pedal;
– depress the clutch pedal or shift into
neutral if the vehicle has an auto -
matic gearbox;
– press switch 4 (O).
In all three cases, the cruising speed is
stored.
Standby is confirmed when the green
 indicator light goes out and the
“stored” message appears on the in -
strument panel.
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.

Parking distance control
This function is an addi -
tional aid that indicates the
distance between the vehi -
cle and an obstacle whilst
reversing, using sound signals.
Under no circumstances should it
replace the driver’s care or respon-
sibility whilst reversing.
The driver should always pay atten-
tion to sudden incidents during driv-
ing: always ensure that there are no
moving obstacles (such as a child,
animal, pram, bicycle, etc.) or small,
narrow objects such as stones or
posts in your path when manoeu -
vring.
Operating principle
Ultrasonic sensors, fitted in the vehi -
cle’s rear bumper, measure the dis -
tance between the vehicle and an ob -
stacle when reversing.
This measurement is indicated by
beeps which become more frequent the
closer you come to the obstacle, until
they become a continuous beep when
the vehicle is approximately 25 centi -
metres from the obstacle.
There is a beep when reverse gear is
engaged. If the beep sounds for a long
time (3 seconds), this signals an oper-
ating fault.
Note: make sure that the ultrasonic
sensors are not obscured (by dirt, mud,
snow, etc.).
PARkING DISTANCE CONTROl (1/2)
An impact to the underside
of the vehicle (e.g.: striking
a post, raised kerb or other
street furniture) may result
in damage to the vehicle (e.g.: de -
formation of an axle).
To avoid any risk of accident, have
your vehicle checked by an ap -
proved dealer.

Prolonged deactivation of the
system
You can deactivate the system perma-
nently by pressing and holding switch 1.
The warning light built into the switch
remains lit constantly.
The deactivated system can be re -
activated by pressing and holding the
switch again.
Temporary deactivation of
the system
(depending on vehicle)
Press switch 1 to deactivate the system.
The indicator light built into the switch
lights up to remind you that the system
is deactivated.
Pressing the switch again will reacti -
vate the system and switch off the in -
dicator light.
The system is automatically reactivated
after the ignition is switched off and the
engine restarted.

Operating faults
When the system detects an operating
fault there will be a 3-second continu -
ous beep as a warning. Consult an ap-
proved Dealer.
