56Good practice
When changing the programmed reference
speed by pressing and holding the control,
take care as the speed may increase or
decrease rapidly.
Do not use the cruise control on slippery
roads or in heavy traffic.
On a steep gradient, the cruise control will
not be able to prevent the vehicle from
exceeding the programmed speed.
The cruise control cannot, in any
circumstances, replace the need to comply
with speed limits or vigilance on the part of
driver.
It is advisable to leave your feet near the
pedals.
To prevent the mat from becoming caught
under the pedals:
-
ensure that the mat is positioned

correctly,
-

never fit one mat on top of another
.
cancelling the programmed speed
When the vehicle stops, after the ignition is
switched off, the system no longer stores
any speed.
Operating fault
In the event of a fault, the system
is switched off and the indicator
goes off.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked.

cruISE cOntrOL
"This is the speed at which the driver wishes
to drive".
This aid to driving in free-flowing traffic
enables the vehicle to maintain the speed
programmed by the driver, unless a
steep gradient or heavy load makes this
impossible.In order for it to be programmed or
activated, the vehicle speed must be greater
than 18 mph (30 km/h) with 2
nd gear or
higher engaged. Function selected.
Function deactivated.
Selecting the function
- Turn the ring fully upwards. The cruise
control is selected but is not yet active
and no speed has been programmed.
The indicator comes on in the instrument
panel

59
There are two methods of memorising a
speed higher than the previous one:
Without using the accelerator:
-
Move the switch up (+).
A

brief press increases the speed
by 1 mph (km/h).
A maintained press increases the speed in
steps of 5 mph (km/h).
Using the accelerator:
-

exceed the memorised speed until the

speed required is reached,
-

move the switch up (+) or down (-).
T

o memorise a speed lower than the
previous one:
-

move the switch down (-).
A

brief press decreases the speed
by 1 mph (km/h).
A maintained press decreases the speed in
steps of 5 mph (km/h).
changing the
programmed
speed Switching the system off
- Place the ring in the central
O position
or switch off the ignition to switch the
system off.
When the vehicle becomes stationary, after
switching off the ignition, the system no
longer memorises a speed.
Operating fault
In the event of a fault, the system
switches off and the indicator
goes off. Contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop to
have the system checked.
Good practice
When changing the programmed reference
speed by means of a maintained press,
pay attention as the speed can increase or
decrease rapidly.
Do not use the cruise control on slippery
roads or in heavy traffic.
In the event of a steep slope, the cruise
control cannot prevent the vehicle from
exceeding the programmed speed.
In any event, the cruise control cannot
replace the need to observe the speed
limits, nor can it replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
It is advisable to leave your feet near the
pedals.
To avoid any jamming under the pedals:
-

ensure
that the mat and its fixings on the
floor are positioned correctly,
-

never place one mat on top of another
.

FIxEd SPEEd LIMItEr
If your vehicle is fitted with this function,
the speed of your vehicle can be limited
to a fixed speed of approximately 55 mph
(90 km/h) or 60 mph (100 km/h).
A label in the passenger compartment
indicates this maximum speed.
The fixed speed limiter is not a function
of the cruise control type. It cannot be
activated or deactivated by the driver while
driving.
The maximum speed set in the factory
depends on the legislation in force in
the country of sale.
This maximum speed cannot be modified by
the driver.
If you want the maximum speed modified, go
to a CITROËN dealer.
