DRIVING CORRECTION DEVICES AND AIDS (3/5)
Emergency brake assist
This system supplements the ABS
and helps reduce vehicle stopping dis-
tances.
Operating principle
The system is for detecting an emer-
gency braking situation. In this case,
the braking assistance immediately de-
velops maximum power and may trig-
ger ABS regulation.
ABS braking is maintained as long as
the brake pedal is applied.
Hazard warning lights switching on
Depending on the vehicle, these may
light up in the event of sudden decel-
eration. Operating faults
When the system detects an operating
fault the message “CHECK ABS” ap-
pears on the instrument panel along
with the
© warning light.
Consult an approved dealer.
Driver assistance with a
trailer
This system helps to maintain control
over the vehicle while using a trailer.
It detects shaking caused by towing a
trailer under certain driving conditions.
Operating conditions
– the towbar must be approved by an authorised dealer;
– the harness must be approved by an authorised dealer;
– the towbar must be connected to the vehicle.
Operating principle
The function stabilises the vehicle by:
– asymmetric braking of the front wheels to reduce shaking caused by
the trailer;
– braking of all four wheels and limita- tion on engine torque to reduce the
vehicle speed until the shaking has
stopped.
Warning light
 flashes on the in-
strument panel to inform the driver.

DRIVER CORRECTION DEVICES AND AIDS (4/5)
Grip control
If fitted on the vehicle, grip control
makes it easier to control the vehicle on
low grip surfaces (soft ground, etc.).“Soft ground” mode
Press the switch 1: warning light 
comes on the instrument panel accom-
panied by the message “VARIABLE
HIGHWAY MODE”.
This position enables optimal usage on
soft ground (mud, sand, dead leaves,
etc.). “Soft ground” mode uses trac-
tion control functions. The system au-
tomatically switches to “Road” mode at
speeds above 30 mph (50 km/h), and
warning light
 on the instrument
panel goes out.
Tyres
When they need to be re-
placed, only tyres of the
same make, size, type and
profile should be used.
Tyres fitted to the vehicle should
either be identical to those fitted
originally or conform to those re-
commended by your approved
dealer.
These functions are an ad-
ditional aid in the event of
critical driving conditions,
enabling the vehicle beha-
viour to be adapted to suit the dri-
ving conditions.
However, the functions do not take
the place of the driver. They do
not increase the vehicle’s limits
and should not encourage you
to drive more quickly. Therefore,
they can under no circumstances
replace the vigilance or responsibi-
lity of the driver when manoeuvring
the vehicle (the driver must always
be ready for sudden incidents which
may occur when driving).
“Road” mode
Upon starting up the vehicle, the
“STANDARD HIGHWAY MODE” mes-
sage is displayed on the instrument
panel. Warning light
 on the ins-
trument panel is out.
This position enables optimal usage
under normal driving conditions (dry-
ness, humidity, light snow, etc.).
“Road” mode uses traction control func-
tions.

driver if:
– the indicator light on button 2 is off;
and
– the vehicle speed is greater than ap- proximately 37.2 mph (60 km/h);
and
– lines are detected.
Warning light
\b comes on on the
instrument panel to notify the driver.
The function sounds the alarm if:
a line is crossed without activating the
indicator lights. The function alerts the

CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: limiter function (1/3)
The speed limiter function helps you
stay within the driving speed limit that
you choose, known as the limit speed.
Controls
1 Limit speed activation, memorisation
and increase switch (+).
2 Decrease limit speed (-).
3 Switch the function to standby (with limit speed memorisation (O)).
4 Activation and recall of memorised limit speed (R).
5 Main “On/Off” switch.
Switching on
Press the side switch 5 . The warn-
ing light 6
comes on, lit orange, and
the message “SPEED LIMITER” ap-
pears on the instrument panel, accom-
panied by dashes to indicate that the
speed limiter is activated and waiting to
store a speed limit.
To memorise the current speed, press
switch 1 (+): the minimum speed which
can be memorised is 20 mph (30 km/ h).

CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: limiter function (2/3)
Exceeding the limit speed
It is possible to exceed the limit speed
at any moment. To do this: press the
accelerator pedal firmly and fully
(beyond the kickdown point).
Whilst the speed is being exceeded,
the limit speed displayed on the instru-
ment panel flashes.
Then, as far as is possible, release
the accelerator pedal: the speed lim-
iter function will return as soon as you
reach a speed lower than the memo-
rised speed.
Limited speed cannot be maintained
When driving down a steep gradient,
the system is unable to maintain the
limit speed: the memorised speed will
flash on the instrument panel informa-
tion display to inform you of this situ-
ation.
The speed limiter function is
in no way linked to the brak-
ing system.
Driving
When a limited speed has been stored
and this speed is not reached, driving is
similar to driving a vehicle without the
speed limiter function.
Once you have reached the stored
speed, no effort on the accelera-
tor pedal will allow you to exceed
the programmed speed except in an
emergency (refer to information on
“Exceeding the limit speed”).

Varying the limit speed
The limit speed may be changed by re-
peatedly pressing:
– Switch 1 (+) to increase the speed;
– Switch 2 (-) to decrease the speed.

2.28
Recalling the limit speed
If a speed has been memorised, it can
be recalled by pressing switch 4 (R).
Switching off the function
The speed limiter function is deacti-
vated when you press switch 5. In this
case, the speed is no longer memo-
rised. The instrument panel orange in-
dicator light
 goes out, confirming
that the function is deactivated.
CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: limiter function (3/3)
Putting the function on
standby
The speed limiter function is deacti-
vated when you press switch 3 (O). In
this case, the speed limit remains stored
and the message “SPEED MEMORY”,
accompanied by this speed, appears
on the instrument panel.
When the speed limiter is set to
standby, pressing switch 1 (+) re-
activates the function without taking
into account the memorised speed:
it is the speed at which the vehicle
is moving that is taken into account.

CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: cruise control function (1/4)
The cruise control function helps you to
maintain your driving speed at a speed
that you choose, called the cruising
speed.
This cruising speed may be set at any
speed above 20 mph (30 km/h).
The cruise control function
is in no way linked to the
braking system.
This function is an addi-
tional driving aid. However,
the function does not take
the place of the driver.
Therefore, it can under no circum-
stances replace the driver’s respon-
sibility to respect speed limits and to
be vigilant (the driver must always
be ready to brake).
Cruise control must not be used in
heavy traffic, on undulating or slip-
pery roads (black ice, aquaplan-
ing, gravel) and during bad weather
(fog, rain, side winds etc.).
There is a risk of accidents.
Controls
1 Cruising speed activation, storage and increase switch (+).
2 Cruising speed decrease switch (-).
3 Switch the function to standby (with stored cruising speed) (O).
4 Activation with recall of stored gov- erned cruising speed (R).
5 Main “On/Off” switch.

Switching on
Press switch 5 on the side showing .
Indicator light 6 comes on, lit green, and
the message “CRUISE CONTROL” ap-
pears on the instrument panel, accom-
panied by dashes to indicate that the
cruise control function is activated and
waiting to store a cruising speed.
Driving
Once a cruising speed is memorised
and the cruise control function is active,
you may lift your foot off the accelera-
tor pedal.
Activating cruise controlAt a steady speed (above 20 mph
(30 km/h) approximately) press
switch 1 (+) or 2 (-): the function is acti-
vated and the current speed is memo-
rised.
Cruise control activation is confirmed
when indicator light 7 lights up in addi-
tion to indicator light 6.
Important: you are never-
theless advised to keep
your feet close to the pedals
in order to react if neces-
sary.
