speed above 25 mph (40 km/h), press button
4.
Switching off
► Turn the thumbwheel 1 to the "0” position: the
cruise control information disappears from the
screen.
Malfunction

Dashes are displayed (flashing, initially, then
fixed) in the event of a cruise control system
malfunction.
Have the system checked by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.
Adaptive Cruise Control
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids and to
Cruise control - particular recommendations.
This system automatically maintains the speed
of your vehicle at a value which you set (speed
setting), while keeping a safe distance from the
vehicle in front (target vehicle), and which has
been set beforehand by the driver. The system
automatically manages the acceleration and
deceleration of the vehicle.
With the Stop function , the system manages
the braking until the vehicle comes to a complete
stop.


To do so, it has a camera located at the top of
the windscreen and, depending on version, a
radar located in the front bumper.
Primarily designed for driving on main
roads and motorways, this system only
works with moving vehicles driving in the
same direction as your vehicle.
If the driver operates a direction indicator
to overtake a slower vehicle, the cruise
control allows the vehicle to temporarily
approach the vehicle in front to assist the
overtaking manoeuvre, without ever
exceeding the speed setting.
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.
Steering mounted control

2. Activation of cruise control at the current
speed / decrease speed setting
3. Activation of cruise control at the current
