Temporarily exceeding the
programmed speed
When descending a steep hill, the cruise control system cannot prevent
t
he vehicle from exceeding the
pro
grammed
s
peed.
When
required (overtaking manoeuvre...), it is
p
ossible to exceed the programmed speed by
p
ressing the accelerator pedal.
The
cruise control is temporarily overridden
a
nd
the programmed speed setting flashes.
Only use the cruise control if the traffic
conditions will allow you to drive for a
certain time at a steady speed and at a
s
afe distance from the vehicle ahead.
Do not activate the cruise control in
urban areas, in heavy traffic, on winding
o
r steep roads, on slippery or flooded
roads, or in conditions of poor visibility
(heavy rain, fog, falling snow...).
In some circumstances, it may not
b
e possible to maintain or reach the
p
rogrammed speed: towing, vehicle
h
eavily loaded, steep climb.
The use of mats not approved by
C
ITROËN may inter fere with the
o
peration of the cruise control.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the
ped
