On sharp acceleration, as when
descending  a   steep   hill,   the   speed  
l

imiter will not be able to prevent
the
  vehicle   from   exceeding   the  
pro

grammed
 s
peed.
The limiter is temporarily deactivated
and
  the   displayed   programmed   speed  
f

lashes.
An
  audible   signal   accompanies   the  
f

lashing   of   the   programmed   speed  
w

hen   exceeding   the   speed   is   not   due   to  
a

n   action   by   the   driver.
The use of mats not approved by
CITROËN may inter fere with the
operation
  of   the   speed   limiter.
To
  avoid   any   risk   of   jamming   of   the

Cruise control - "CRUISE"
System which automatically maintains the speed of the vehicle at the value programmed by the driver, without any action on the accelerator pedal.
The cruise control system cannot, in any circumstances, replace the need to observe speed limits, nor can it replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
Y ou   are   advised   to   keep   your   feet   near   the   pedals   at   all   times.
Switching on the cruise control requires a
minimum   vehicle   speed   of   25   mph   (40   km/h).

Detection
  of   a   vehicle,   at   the   limit   of   the   range   of   the   radar:

"SPEED ADJUSTED" Detection
  of   a   vehicle   that   is   too   close   or   running   at   a   speed   lower   than   your  
v

ehicle's   cruise   speed   setting.
The
  system   uses   engine   braking   to   slow   your   vehicle   and   then   hold   it   at   the   speed   of  
t

he   vehicle   in   front   so   as   to   maintain   the   programmed   inter-vehicle   time.
The
  regulation   range   is   limited   to   a   maximum   difference   of   20   mph   (30   km/h)  
b

etween   the   speed   setting   and   the   speed   of   the   vehicle   ahead.
"SPEED ADJUSTED" When
  the   adjusted   speed   reaches   the   control   limit   (speed   setting   -   20   mph  
(

30 km/h)),   the   adjusted   speed   flashes   together   with   the   speed   setting,   to   signal   that  
a

utomatic   deactivation   of   the   system   is   imminent.
"Cruise control
paused" If
  the   system   exceeds   the   limit   of   speed   adjustment   possible   by   the   system   and  
i

n the absence of any reaction by the driver (operation of the direction indicator,
change
  of   lane,   reduction   of   the   speed   of   the   vehicle),   the   system   is   automatically  
pa

used.
The
  display   of   the   deactivation   message   is   accompanied   by   an   audible   signal.

When the dynamic cruise control is
automatically paused, it can only be
reactivated when safe conditions are
restored.  The   message   "Activation  
no

t possible, conditions unsuitable"
is displayed while reactivation is not
possible.
When the conditions allow, it is
recommended that the system be
reactivated
  by   pressing   button   2 or 3,
which
  will   make   the   current   speed   of  
y

our vehicle the new cruise speed
setting,
  rather   than   by   pressing   button   4
(on/pause)
  which   reactivates   the   system  
u

sing   the   old   cruise   speed   setting,  
w

hich may be very different from the
current
  speed   of   your   vehicle. The
  dynamic   cruise   control   uses   only   engine  b
raking   to   slow   the   vehicle.   Consequently   the  
v

ehicle   loses   speed   slowly,   as   when   releasing  
t

he   accelerator   pedal.
The
  system   is   paused   automatically:
-

i
f the vehicle in front slows down too much
or too suddenly, and the driver does not
brake,
-

i
f a vehicle comes between your vehicle
and the vehicle in front,
-

i
f the system does not slow the vehicle
enough
  to   continue   to   maintain   a   safe  
d

istance,   for   example   when   descending   a  
s

teep   hill.
Limits of operation
As the radar's field of view is quite narrow, it is possible   that   the   system   may   not   detect:
The
  cruise   control   does   not   take   account   of:
-
s

tationary vehicles,
-
 
v
ehicles   driving   in   the   opposite   direction.
-

v
ehicles of reduced width, such as
motorcycles,
  for   example,
-
 
v
ehicles   not   running   in   the   middle   of   the  
lan

e,
-
 
v
ehicles   entering   a   corner,
-
 
v
ehicles   changing   lane   at   the   last   moment.
