Dynamic cruise control "CRuISe"
this systems allows the vehicle's speed to be
maintained at a value set by the driver.
In addition it allows (when circumstances
permit) an inter-vehicle time that you have
selected to be maintained between your vehicle
and the one in front.Principles of operation
using a radar with a range of about 100 metres,
located at the front of the vehicle, this system
detects a vehicle running in front of your
vehicle.
It automatically adapts the speed of your
vehicle to that of the vehicle in front.
If the vehicle in front is running more slowly,
the system progressively reduces the speed of
your vehicle using just engine braking (as if the
driver had pressed the "-" b ut to n).
If your vehicle is too close to, or approaching
too quickly the vehicle in front, the dynamic
cruise control is automatically deactivated.
th

e driver is then alerted by an audible signal,
accompanied by a message.
If the vehicle in front accelerates or changes
lane, the dynamic cruise control progressively
accelerates your vehicle to return to the
programmed speed.
If the driver operates a direction indicator to
overtake a slower vehicle, the dynamic cruise
control allows your vehicle to temporarily
approach the vehicle in front to assist the
overtaking manoeuvre, though never exceeding
the programmed speed.
Switching between the types of cruise control
If you want to use the "standard" cruise control,
it is possible to deactivate the dynamic cruise
control in the touch screen.
th

e cruise control selection thumbwheel must
be in the "CR
uI

S
e" p
osition, other wise the
choice will not be taken into account.
For more information on the Cruise
control , refer to the corresponding

th
e dynamic cruise control operates
by day and at night, in fog or moderate
rainfall.
the system does not act on the braking
system, but works only with engine
braking.
the regulation range is limited: there will
no longer be any adjustment of speed if
the difference between the programmed
speed setting and the speed of the
vehicle in front becomes too great.
th
e selection of this system deactivates
the display of inter-vehicle time.
If the difference between the
programmed speed setting and the
speed of the vehicle in front is too
great, the speed cannot be adjusted:
the cruise control is automatically
deactivated.

the dynamic cruise control is switched on
manually, it requires that the speed of the
vehicle be between 25 mph (40 km/h) and
90
mph (150 km/h).
General points
the dynamic cruise control can be paused
manually with the control, or automatically:
-

b
y pressing the brake or clutch pedal,
-

i
n the event of operation of the e SC, for
safety reasons,
-

i
n the event of an action on the electric
parking brake control,
-

w
hen an inter-vehicle time threshold is
reached (calculated according to the
relative speeds of your vehicle and the
vehicle in front and the inter-vehicle time
setting chosen),
-

w
hen the distance between your vehicle
and the one in front becomes too small,
-

w
hen the speed of the vehicle in front is
too


low,
-

w
hen the speed of your vehicle becomes
too low.
the dynamic cruise control cannot in any
circumstances replace the observation
of speed limits, nor the need for the
vigilance on the part of the driver.
It is recommended that you always keep
your feet close to the pedals.
the inter-vehicle time setting is
memorised when switching off the
ignition.
With a manual gearbox, third or fourth gear
(depending on engine) or higher must be
engaged.
With an automatic gearbox, second gear or
higher must be engaged.
If the cruise speed setting is above 90 mph
(150 km/h), the dynamic cruise control switches
to normal cruise control mode (without
automatic adjustment of the safety inter-vehicle
distance).

When the dynamic cruise control is
automatically paused, it can only be
reactivated when safe conditions are
restored. t
h
e message "Activation

is displayed while reactivation is not
possible.
When the conditions allow, it is
recommended that the function be
reactivated by pressing button 2 (S

)
or 3 (S
e

t

), which will make the current
speed of your vehicle the new cruise
speed setting, rather than by pressing
button 4 (on/pause) which reactivates
the cruise control using the old cruise
speed setting, which may be very
different from the current speed of your
vehicle.th e speed regulation range is limited to a
maximum difference of 20 mph (30 km/h)
between the speed setting and the speed of the
vehicle in front.
Above this, the system goes into pause if the
safe distance becomes too low.
th

e dynamic cruise control uses only engine
braking to slow the vehicle. Consequently the
vehicle loses speed slowly, as when releasing
the accelerator pedal.
th

e 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
distance, for example when descending a
steep hill.
Limits of operation
As the radar's field of view is quite narrow, it is
possible that the system may not detect:th e 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, -

v

Display of inter-vehicle time
using a radar located at the front of the vehicle,
this system helps the driver maintain a safe
distance between their vehicle and the one in
front, by displaying the current inter-vehicle
time in the instrument panel.
th
is is the time interval, expressed in seconds,
that separates two vehicles in line.
th

e recommended safe value is about
2


seconds.
Refer to the legislation or highway code in force
in your country.Activation / deactivation*
F Press this button, the indicator lamp comes on.
th

e measurement is displayed for
information only: the system takes no
action on the vehicle.
th

is system does not in any
circumstances replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver, who
must remain in control of the vehicle at
all times.
th

e system is not designed for urban
use nor for more dynamic driving
(bends, acceleration, harsh braking…)
but rather when driving at a steady
speed.
th

e system is active in a speed range
between 42 and 93 mph (70 and
150


km/h).
Stationary vehicles and certain other
road users (such as bicycles for
example) are not detected.
th

e system displays inter-vehicle time
values of between 3 seconds and 0.5 of
a second.
Below 0.5 of a second, the value
displayed is maintained at this level,
even if the true inter-vehicle time is less.
th

e state of the system is memorised when the
ignition is switched off. Activation of the system is done in the " Driving
assistance " menu, with the engine running.
* Depending on version.
Conditions for display
the dynamic cruise control must not
be selected (the dynamic cruise control
information is displayed instead of that for the
inter-vehicle time).

Park Assist
this system provides active assistance with
parking. It detects a parking space then
operates the steering to park in the space.
It operates the steering while the driver
manages the accelerator, brakes, gears and
clutch (manual gearbox). During phases of
entry into and exit from a parking space, the
system provides visual and audible information
to the driver in order to make the manoeuvres
safe. It may be necessary to move for wards
and backwards more than once.During a manoeuvre, the steering
wheel turns quickly: do not hold the
steering wheel, do not place your
hands between the spokes of the
steering wheel and take care with
loose and bulky clothing (scarves, ties,
handbags...) - Risk of injury!
When Park Assist is activated, it
prevents a change to S
tO

P mode of
Stop & Start. In S
tO

P mode, activation
of Park Assist restarts the engine.
this manoeuvring assistance system
cannot, in any circumstances, replace
the need for vigilance on the part of the
driver.
th

e driver must remain in control of their
vehicle ensuring that the space remains
clear throughout the manoeuvre.
In some circumstances, the sensors may
not detect small obstacles located in their
blind spots.
the driver can take control at any time by
gripping the steering wheel.
