Principles
It is necessary to update your navigation
mapping regularly in order to receive
accurate information on speed limits from
the system.
Activation / Deactivation
This system allows the speed limit detected by
the camera to be displayed in the instrument
panel.
The system also processes speed limit details
from the navigation system mapping.
The system is activated or deactivated via the
vehicle configuration menu.
Displays on the instrument panel
1. Speed limit indication.
or
2. Indication of the end of the speed limit.
The system is active but is not detecting speed
limit information. On detection of speed limit information, the
system displays the value.
" MEM " flashes, accompanied by a message –
with speed limiter or cruise control activated –
the system suggests recording the speed limit
as a new speed setting.

Operating limits
The legislation on speed limits is specific to
each country.
The system does not take account of reduced
speed limits in the following cases:
-
p
oor weather (rain, snow),
-
a
tmospheric pollution,
-
t
railer, caravan,
-
d
riving with a space-saver type spare wheel
or snow chains fitted,
-
p
uncture repair using the temporary repair
kit,
-
y
oung drivers, etc.
The following situations may inter fere with the
operation of the system or prevent it working:
-
p
oor visibility (inadequate street lighting,
falling snow, rain, fog),
-
w
indscreen area located in front of the
camera dirty, misted, frost-covered, snow-
covered, damaged or covered by a sticker,
-
f
ault with the camera,
-
o
bsolete or incorrect mapping,
-
h
idden road signs (other vehicles,
vegetation, snow),
-
s
peed limit signs that do not conform to the
standard, are damaged or distorted.
Memorising the speed
setting
This memorise function is in addition to the
display of Recognition of speed limit signs .
For more information on the Speed
limiter, Cruise control , or Dynamic
cruise control with Stop function , refer
to the corresponding sections.
Steering mounted controls
Display on the instrument panel
The driver can choose to adapt the speed
setting to the speed limit suggested, by
pressing the memorise button for the speed
limiter, the standard cruise control and the
dynamic cruise control with Stop function.
This speed setting then replaces the previous
speed setting for the speed limiter and/or cruise
control. 1.

Temporarily exceeding the
programmed speed
F If you want to temporarily exceed the programmed limit speed, press firmly on
the accelerator pedal, going beyond the
point of resistance . On a steep descent or in the event of
sharp acceleration, the speed limiter will
not be able to prevent the vehicle from
exceeding the programmed speed.
When the limit speed is exceeded but this is not
due to action by the driver, there is an audible
signal to complete the alert.
Once the speed of the vehicle returns to
the programmed setting, the speed limiter
functions again: the display of the programmed
speed setting becomes steady again.Switching off
F Turn the thumbwheel 1 to the "0" position:
the display of information on the speed
limiter disappears.
The speed limiter is deactivated temporarily
and the displayed programmed speed flashes.
Malfunction
Flashing dashes indicate a fault with the speed
limiter.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
The use of mats not approved by
PEUGEOT may inter fere with the
operation of the speed limiter.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the pedals:
-
e
nsure that the mat is positioned
c o r r e c t l y,
-
d
o not fit one mat on top of another.

The brake lamps illuminate as soon as
the braking system is activated with
deceleration of the vehicle.
The dynamic cruise control system
is a driving aid that cannot, in any
circumstances, replace the need to obser ve
speed limits and safety distances, nor the
need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
It is recommended that you always keep
your feet close to the pedals.
The driver must be ready to take back
control of their vehicle at any time, using the
brake or accelerator pedal as appropriate.Steering mounted controls

system is triggered for reasons of safety.
Following braking of the vehicle bringing
it to a complete stop, the system holds
the vehicle stationary; the cruise control
is paused. The driver must press the
accelerator pedal to start off again, then
reactivate the system by exceeding
18
mph (30 km/h) and by pressing
button 2, 3
or 4.
If the driver takes no action following
this immobilisation, the electric parking
brake is applied automatically after a few
minutes.
