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).
As
  well   as   engagement   of:
-
 
f
ourth   gear   or   higher   on   a   manual   gearbox,

The cruise control is paused
 

by   pressing

It
  is   possible   to   exceed   the   programmed   speed  
t

Detection

"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

When
  the   conditions   allow,   it   is  
r

ecommended   that   the   system   be  
r

eactivated   by   pressing   button   2 or 3,
which
  will   make   the   current   speed   of  
y

our   vehicle   the   new   cruise   speed  
s

etting,   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  
c

urrent   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  
o

r   too   suddenly,   and   the   driver   does   not  
b

rake,
-
 
i
f   a   vehicle   comes   between   your   vehicle  
a

nd   the   vehicle   in   front,
-
 
i
f   the   system   does   not   slow   the   vehicle  
e

nough   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:
-
