Speed limiter (VTi 68 engine)
System which prevents the vehicle from exceeding the speed programmed by the driver.
T he speed limiter is switched on
m
anually:
t
his can be done whatever the speed of the
v
ehicle. However, if you are driving at less than
2
0 mph (30 km/h), the programmed speed will
b
e fixed at 20 mph (30 km/h).
The
speed limiter is paused by operation of the
control.
The
programmed speed can be exceeded
t
emporarily by pressing the accelerator firmly
b
eyond the point of resistance.
To
return to the programmed speed, simply
r
elease the accelerator pedal until the vehicle

Lane departure warning system
System which detects the unintended crossing of longitudinal traffic lane markings on the ground, using a camera that recognises both solid and broken lines.
To
improve your safety, the camera analyses the image and then triggers a warning if the vehicle wanders over a lane marking (speed higher than
3
0 mph (50 km/h)).
This
system is particularly suitable for motor ways and dual carriageways.
The
lane departure warning system
c
annot in any circumstances replace
t
he need for vigilance on the part of the
d
river.
It
is necessary to observe driving
r
egulations and take a break every
two
hours.
