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 PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop 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 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 and the need for vigilance 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
