The speed limit units (mph or km/h)
depend on the country you are driving in.
This should be taken into account in order
to obser ve the speed limit.
For the system to operate correctly when
you change country, the units for speed in
the instrument panel must be those for the
country you are driving in.
The automatic reading of road signs is
a driving assistance system and does not
always display speed limits correctly.
The speed limit signs present on the road
always take priority over the display by the
system.
The system cannot in any circumstances
replace the need for vigilance on the part
of the driver.
The driver must observe the driving
regulations and must adapt the speed of
the vehicle to suit the weather and traffic.
The system may not display the speed
limit if it does not detect a
speed limit sign
within a
preset period.
The system is designed to detect signs
that conform to the Vienna Convention on
road signs. To maintain correct operation of the
system: regularly clean the area in front of
the camera.
The internal sur face of the windscreen can
also become misted around the camera.
In humid and cold weather, demist the
windscreen regularly.
Activation/Deactivation
Activation and deactivation of the system is
done in the touch screen's Driving
menu.
Select the " Vehicle settings " tab, then
" Security "/ "Safety " and "Recommended
speed display ".
Displays in the instrument panel
1.Detected 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.
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,
-
w

hen towing,
-

d
riving with a space-saver type spare wheel
or snow chains fitted,

Speed limiter "LIMIT"
System which prevents the
vehicle from exceeding the speed
programmed by the driver.
Once the programmed speed limit is reached,
additional pressure on the accelerator pedal
has no effect.
Operation of the speed limiter requires
a

programmed speed of at least 19 mph
(30


km/h).
The speed limiter is paused using the control.
The programmed speed can be exceeded
temporarily by pressing the accelerator firmly
beyond the point of resistance.
To return to the programmed speed, simply
release the accelerator pedal until the set
speed limit has been reached again.
The programmed speed remains in the system
memory when the ignition is switched off.
The speed limiter cannot, in any circumstances,
replace the need to obser ve speed limits, nor can it
replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.

going beyond the point of resistance, to
exceed the programmed speed limit.
The speed limiter is deactivated temporarily
and the displayed programmed speed flashes.
An audible signal accompanies the flashing
of the programmed speed when exceeding
the speed is not due to an action by the driver
(steep hill, etc.).
As soon as the vehicle's speed returns to the
programmed value, the limiter operates again:
the display of the programmed speed becomes
steady again.
Switching off
F Turn wheel 1 to the 0 position. The display
of information related to the speed limiter
disappears.
Malfunction
Flashing of the dashes indicates a fault with the
sp eed limiter.
Have it checked by a
CITROËN dealer or
a


qualified workshop. On sharp acceleration, as when
descending a
steep hill, the speed limiter
will not be able to prevent the vehicle from
exceeding the programmed speed.
An audible signal accompanies the
flashing of the programmed speed when
exceeding the speed is not due to an
action by the driver.

When the cruise control is switched on, be
careful if you maintain the pressure on one
of the programmed speed modification
buttons: this may result in a very rapid
change in the speed of your vehicle.
Do not use the cruise control on slippery
roads or in heavy traffic.
When descending a


steep hill, the cruise
control system cannot prevent the vehicle
from exceeding the programmed speed.
On steep climbs or when towing, the
programmed speed may not be reached
or maintained.

CITROËN may inter fere with the operation
of the cruise control.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the pedals:
-

e
nsure that mats are secured correctly,
-

n
ever fit one mat on top of another.Adaptive cruise control
The system allows the speed of
your vehicle to be maintained at the
setting you have made, and also to
respect the inter-vehicle time that
you have selected between your
vehicle and the one in front, when
the situation permits it.
Switching between the
types of cruise control
The choice between "adaptive" and "standard"
cruise control is made in the Driving menu.
F

T

the "CRUISE" position.
F

I
n the Driving menu, select the Driving
functions tab and then Active cruise
control to activate or deactivate adaptive
cruise control.
For more information on the Cruise
control , refer to the corresponding
section.
Principles of operation
Using radar with a range of about 100 metres,
l ocated at the front of the vehicle, this system
detects a
vehicle travelling 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 travelling more slowly,
the system progressively reduces the speed of
your vehicle using just engine braking (as if the
driver had pressed the " -" b u t to n).
If your vehicle is too close to the vehicle in
front or is approaching it too quickly, adaptive
cruise control is automatically deactivated.
The driver is then alerted by an audible signal
accompanied by a


message.
If the vehicle in front accelerates or changes
lane, the adaptive cruise control gradually
accelerates your vehicle to return to the
programmed speed.
If the driver operates the direction indicator to
the left (left-hand drive) or to the right (right-
hand drive), to overtake a
slower vehicle, the
adaptive cruise control allows your vehicle to
temporarily approach the vehicle in front to
assist the overtaking manoeuvre, though never
exceeding the programmed speed.
The adaptive cruise control operates
by day and at night, in fog or moderate
rainfall.

Primarily designed for driving on main
roads and motor ways, this system only
works on moving vehicles, driving in the
same direction as your vehicle.
Principle of operation
The system automatically adapts the speed of
your vehicle to that of the vehicle in front, to
maintain a


constant distance.
If the vehicle in front is driving more slowly, the
system slows or even stops your vehicle, using
engine braking and the braking system (for
versions fitted with an automatic gearbox).
If the vehicle in front accelerates or changes
lane, the 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 cruise control
allows your vehicle to temporarily approach
the vehicle in front to assist the overtaking
manoeuvre, though never exceeding the
programmed speed.
The brake lamps illuminate as soon as
the braking system is activated with
deceleration of the vehicle. This 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.
Some vehicles present on the road may
not be properly seen or may be poorly
interpreted by the camera and/or radar
(e.g. a lorry), which may lead to a poor
assessment of the distances and lead to
the vehicle inappropriately accelerating or
braking.
The driver must be ready at all times
to retake control of their vehicle by
permanently holding both hands on the
steering wheel and keeping their feet near
the brake and accelerator pedals.
