y   pressing   button   4,
-
 
b
y   pressing   the   brake   pedal,
-

i
n the event of operation of the ESC, for
safety reasons,
-

i
n the event of operation of the electric
parking
  brake   control   lever,
-

w
hen an inter-vehicle time threshold is
reached
  (calculated   according   to   the  
r

elative speeds of your vehicle and the
vehicle in front and the inter-vehicle time
setting
 c

hosen),
-

w
hen the distance between your vehicle
and the one in front becomes too small,
-

w
hen the speed of the vehicle in front is too
low,
-

w
hen the speed of your vehicle becomes
too
  low.
The dynamic cruise control cannot in any
circumstances replace the observation
of
 sp

eed
 l

imits,
 n

or
 t

he
 n

eed
 fo

r
 v

igilance
 o

n
 
the
 
part
 
of
 
the
 
driver.
It
 
is
 
recommended
 
that
 
you
 
always
 
keep
 y

our
 
feet
 
close
 
to
 
the
 
pedals.
If
 
the
 
speed
 
setting
 
selected
 
is
 
above
 
9

0
 
mph
 
(150
 
km/h),
 
the
 
system
 
switches
 
t

o standard cruise control operation,
with
 
no
 
adjustment
 
of
 
the
 
inter-vehicle
 
s

afe
 
distance
 
(a
 
message
 
appears
 
in
 
t

he
 
instrument
 
panel). The
  inter-vehicle   time   setting   is   kept   in  
m

emory   on   switching   off   the   ignition.
The dynamic cruise control operates by
day
 
and
 
at
 
night,
 
in
 
fog
 
or
 
in
 
moderate
 
r

ainfall.
The system does not act on the braking s ystem,   but   works   only   with   engine   braking.
The
  regulation   range   is   limited:   there   will
 n

o   longer   be   any   adjustment   of   speed   if   the
 d

ifference   between   the   programmed   speed
 s

etting   and   the   speed   of   the   vehicle   in   front
 b

ecomes   too   high   (18   mph   (30   km/h)).
If the difference between the
programmed  speed   setting   and   the  
s

peed of the vehicle in front is too
great,
  the   speed   cannot   be   adjusted:  
t

he cruise control is automatically
deactivated.
