OFF switch warning lamp flashes then comes
on fixed.

qualified workshop.

Speed limiter "LIMIT"
The system prevents the vehicle from
exceeding the speed setting programmed by
the driver.
Steering mounted controls
1. Speed limiter mode selection / off.
2. Increases the set value.
3. Decreases the set value.
4. Speed limiter On / Pause. The vehicle responds to the accelerator until
resistance is felt in the pedal, which signifies
that the vehicle has reached the limiter speed
setting.
However, pressing the pedal beyond this point
of resistance to the floor permits exceeding
of the programmed speed. To resume use of
the limiter, simply reduce the pressure on the
accelerator pedal gradually and return to a
speed below that programmed.
Setting and operation of the system can be
done stationar y with the engine running or
when driving.
Selection
F Place the thumbwheel at the "LIMIT"

position: the speed limiter mode is selected
but is not switched on (PAUSE).
Switching the speed limiter on is not required to
set the speed limit.
The speed setting is selected with the engine
running, stationary or when driving. The
minimum speed setting possible is 20

mph
(30


km/h).

reference speed by means of a maintained
press, pay attention as the speed can
increase or decrease rapidly.

roads or in heavy traffic.
On a steep descent, the cruise control will
not be able to prevent the vehicle from
exceeding the registered speed.
The cruise control system cannot in
any circumstances replace the need
to obser ve speed limits or the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
To avoid any risk of jamming the pedals:

e
nsure that the mat is positioned and
secured to the floor correctly,
-

n
ever place one mat on top of another.Memorising speeds

can then be offered to set the two systems: the
speed limiter (to limit the speed of the vehicle)
or the cruise control (for a vehicle cruising
speed).
You can memorise up to five settings in the
system for each of the two systems.
By default, some speed settings are already
