6Speed Limit Recognition
and Recommendation
Refer to the General recommendations
on the use of driving and
manoeuvring aids.


This system displays the maximum authorised
speed on the instrument panel, according to
the speed limits in the country in which you are
driving, using:
–

Speed limit signs detected by the camera.
–


Speed limit information from the navigation
system’

s mapping.
Navigation mapping should be regularly
updated in order to receive accurate
speed limit information from the system.
The units for the speed limit (mph or km/h) depend on the country you are
driving in.
This should be taken into account to ensure
you observe the speed limit.
For the system to work correctly when
changing country, the speed unit shown on
the instrument panel must correspond to that
of the country you are driving in.
Automatic road sign detection is a driving aid system and does not always display
speed limits correctly.
The speed limit signs present on the road
always take priority over the information
displayed by the system.
The system is designed to detect signs that
conform to the Vienna Convention on road
signs.
Activation/Deactivation
The settings are changed via the vehicle configuration menu.

Driving
Operating limits
The regulation range is limited to a maximum
difference of 19 mph (30 km/h) between the
cruise speed setting and the speed of the
vehicle in front.
Above this, the system pauses itself if the safety
distance becomes too short.
The adaptive cruise control uses only engine
braking to slow the vehicle. Consequently the
vehicle loses speed slowly, as when releasing
the accelerator pedal.
The system is paused automatically:
–

if the vehicle in front slows down too much or
too suddenly

, and the driver does not brake,
–

if a vehicle comes between your vehicle and
the vehicle in front,
–


if the system does not slow the vehicle enough
to continue to maintain a safe distance, for
example when descending a steep hill.
Cases of non-detection by the radar:
–


Stationary vehicles (traffic jam, breakdown,
etc.).
–


V
ehicles driving in the opposite direction.
When the driver must suspend the cruise
control system:


– When following a narrow vehicle.

– Vehicles not running in the middle of the lane.

– Vehicles entering a corner.
– V ehicles changing lane at the last moment.
Reactivate cruise control when conditions permit.
Cases where the driver is urged to take back
control immediately:
–

When a vehicle cuts in sharply between your
vehicle and the one in front.
–


Excessively sharp deceleration of the vehicle
in front of you.
The adaptive cruise control operates by day and 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.
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.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction with the adaptive
cruise control, you will be alerted by an audible
signal and the display of the message "Driving
aid functions fault".
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Active Safety Brake with Collision Risk Alert and
Intelligent emergency
braking assistance
Refer to the General recommendations
