Gear shift indicator
System which reduces fuel consumption by
recommending the most appropriate gear.
Operation
Depending on the driving situation and the
equipment of your vehicle, the system can
recommend you to change gear.
Gear shift recommendations are for information
only. In fact, the road layout, the traffic density
and safety remain the deciding factors when
choosing the best gear. The driver therefore
remains responsible for deciding whether or not
to follow the indications issued by the system.
This function cannot be deactivated.
Example:
-

Y
ou are in third gear.
-

Y
ou press the accelerator pedal.
-

T
he system may suggest that you engage
a


higher gear.

comes on, accompanied by an audible
signal, to warn the driver to take avoiding
action. The triggering thresholds of the
warning can be set.
•

Br
aking assistance : increases the braking
started by the driver, but only if a
risk of
collision is detected.
•

A
utomatic pre-collision braking : if
your vehicle is approaching the vehicle
in front of you too quickly, the system
will automatically engage the brakes to
reduce the speed of impact. The collision
can be automatically avoided if the speed
difference between your vehicle and the
one in front of you is not more than 18
mph
(30


km/h).Then you are alerted by the display
of this warning indicator in the
instrument panel, accompanied by
an audible signal.
The brake lamps of your vehicle are lit to warn
other users.
The automatic braking can lead to the complete
stop of the vehicle if the situation requires. Unless the driver de-clutches quickly
enough during automatic braking,
triggering of the system may cause the
engine to stall.
