ENG_NU_1079-3_H79Ph2_Dacia_2
DRIVER CORRECTION DEVICES/AIDS (2/4)
Emergency brake assist with
electronic brake distribution
(depending on the vehicle)
This system supplements the ABS
and helps reduce vehicle stopping dis-
tances.
Operating principle
The system is for detecting an emer-
gency braking situation. In this case,
the braking assistance immediately de-
velops maximum power and may trig-
ger ABS regulation.
ABS braking is maintained as long as
the brake pedal is applied.
Operating faults
– If the x warning light on the ins-
trument panel comes on while you
are driving, the brakes will still
work normally without ABS;
– If the
x and D warning
lights on the instrument panel come
on while you are driving, there is a
fault in the braking system.
In both cases, consult an approved
Dealer.
Your braking systems
are partially operational.
However, it is dangerous
to brake suddenly and
it is essential to stop immediately,
as soon as traffic conditions allow.
Contact an approved dealer.

DRIVER CORRECTION DEVICES/AIDS (4/4)
Hill start assistance
This function assists the driver when
starting on hills. It prevents the vehicle
from rolling forwards or backwards by
automatically applying the brakes when
the driver lifts their foot off the brake
pedal to depress the accelerator pedal.
It only operates when the gear lever is
in a position other than neutral (other
than N or P for automatic transmis-
sions) and the vehicle is completely
stationary (brake pedal depressed).
The system holds the vehicle for ap-
proximately 2 seconds. The brakes are
then gradually released (the vehicle will
move according to the slope).
Operating principle
A sensor in the steering wheel detects
the direction selected by the driver.
Other sensors throughout the vehicle
measure the actual direction.
The system compares driver input to
the actual trajectory of the vehicle and
corrects the trajectory if necessary by
controlling the braking of certain wheels
and/or engine power. In the event that
the system is engaged, the indicator
light
flashes on the instrument
panel.
Operating faults
When the system detects an opera-
ting fault the warning lights
Ò and
appear on the instrument panel.
In this case, the Electronic Stability
Program ESC with understeer control
and traction control are deactivated.
Please consult an authorised dealer if
these warning lights remain displayed
on the instrument panel after the igni-
tion is switched off and on again.
The hill start assistance
system cannot completely
prevent the vehicle from
rolling backwards in all sit-
uations (extremely steep gradients,
etc.).
In all cases, the driver may depress
the brake pedal to prevent the
vehicle from rolling forwards or
backwards.
The hill start assistance function
should not be used for prolonged
stops: use the brake pedal.
This function is not designed to im-
mobilise the vehicle permanently.
If necessary, use the brake pedal to
stop the vehicle.
The driver must remain particularly
vigilant when driving on slippery or
low-grip surfaces and/or on hills.
Risk of serious injury.

Régulateur-limiteur de vitesse : fonction limiteur (H79 Ph2 - Dacia)\
ENG_NU_1079-3_H79Ph2_Dacia_2
Exceeding the limit speed
It is possible to exceed the limit speed
at any time. To do this: press the acce-
lerator pedal firmly and fully (beyond
the resistance point).
While the speed is being exceeded, the
programmed speed displayed on the
instrument panel flashes.
Then, release the accelerator: the
speed limiter function will return as
soon as you reach a speed lower than
the stored speed.
Limited speed cannot be maintained
If driving up or down a steep gradient,
the system is unable to maintain the
limit speed: the stored speed will flash
on the instrument panel information dis-
play to inform you of this situation.
Varying the limit speed
The limit speed may be changed by re-
peatedly pressing:
– switch 2 (+) to increase speed;
– switch 3 (-) to reduce speed.
Driving
When a limited speed has been stored
and this speed is not reached, driving is
similar to driving a vehicle without the
speed limiter function.
Once you have reached the stored
speed, no effort on the accelerator pedal
will allow you to exceed the program-
med speed except in an emergency
(refer to information on “Exceeding the
limit speed”).

CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: speed limiter function (3/3)
Recalling the limit speed
If a speed has been saved, it can be re-
called by pressing switch 4 ((R)).
Putting the function on
standby
The speed limiter function is suspended
when you press switch 5 (O). In this
case, the limit speed remains stored
and the message “MEM” accompanied
by this speed appears on the instru-
ment panel.
Switching off the function
The speed limiter function is deactiva-
ted if you press switch 1: in this case a
speed is no longer stored. The orange
instrument panel warning light
goes
out, confirming that the function is stop-
ped.
When the speed limiter is put on
standby, pressing switch 2 (+) reac-
tivates the function without taking
into account the stored speed: it is
the speed at which the vehicle is
moving that is taken into account.

ENG_NU_1079-3_H79Ph2_Dacia_2
Driving
Once a cruising speed is stored and
the cruise control function is active,
you may lift your foot off the accelera-
tor pedal.
Important: you are never-
theless advised to keep
your feet close to the pedals
in order to react if neces-
sary.
Activating cruise control
At a steady speed (above 18 mph
(30 km/h approximately)) press switch 2
or (+): the function is activated and the
current speed is saved.
The cruising speed replaces the
dashes and the cruise control is con-
firmed by the appearance of the mes-
sage “CRUISE" and the warning light 6
being lit green, as well as the warn-
ing light 7
.
Switching on
Press switch 1 side .
The warning light 6 comes on, lit green,

CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: cruise control function (3/4)
Exceeding the cruising speed
The cruising speed may be exceeded
at any time by depressing the accelera-
tor pedal. While it is being exceeded,
the cruising speed flashes on the in-
strument panel.
Then, release the accelerator: after a
few seconds, the vehicle will automati-
cally return to its set cruising speed.
Cruising speed cannot be
maintained
When driving down a steep gradient,
the system is unable to maintain the
cruising speed: the stored speed will
flash on the instrument panel informa-
tion display to inform you of this situ-
ation.
Adjusting the cruising speed
The cruising speed may be changed by
pressing the following repeatedly:
– switch 2 (+) to increase the speed,
– switch 3 (-) to decrease the speed.
The cruise control function
is in no way linked to the
braking system.

ENG_NU_1079-3_H79Ph2_Dacia_2
Switching off the function
The cruise control function is deacti-
vated if you press switch 1: in this case
a speed is no longer stored. The two in-
strument panel warning lights
and
go out to confirm that the function is
deactivated.
Returning to the cruising speed
If a speed is stored, it can be recalled,
once you are sure that the road con-
ditions are suitable (traffic, road sur-
face, weather conditions, etc.). Press
switch
4 (R) if the vehicle speed is
above 20 mph (30 km/h).
When the stored speed is recalled, acti-
vation of the cruise control is confirmed
by the illumination of the
warning
light.
NB: if the speed previously stored is
much higher than the current speed,
the vehicle will accelerate more rapidly
to reach this threshold.
When the cruise control function is
put on standby, pressing switch 2
(+) reactivates the cruise control
function without taking into account
the stored speed: it is the speed at
which the vehicle is moving that is
taken into account.
Putting the function on
standby
The function is set to standby if you:
– use the switch 5 (O);
– the brake pedal;
– the clutch pedal;
In all three cases, the cruising speed re-
mains stored and the message “MEM”
appears on the instrument panel.
Standby is confirmed when indicator
light
goes out.
CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: cruise control function (4/4)
Putting the cruise control
on standby or switching it
off does not cause a rapid
reduction in speed: you
must brake by depressing the brake
pedal.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (1/3)
Selector lever 1
Display 3 on the instrument panel
shows the mode and gear selected.
P: park
R: reverse
N: neutral
D: automatic mode
4: zone displaying gearbox mode or
gear engaged in manual mode.
OperationWith the gear lever in position P or N,
switch on the ignition.
With your foot on the brake pedal, move
the lever out of position P.
Only engage D or R when the vehi-
cle is stopped, with your foot on the
brake and the accelerator pedal re-
leased.
You must apply the brake before
pressing the unlocking button 2 to
move out of position P.
Driving in automatic modeMove lever 1 to position D.
In the majority of traffic conditions, you
will not have to touch the gear selector
lever again: the gear will be changed
automatically at the right time and at
the most suitable engine speed be-
cause the automatic system takes into
account the vehicle load and road con-
tour and adjusts itself to the particular
driving style you have chosen.
Economical driving
When driving, leave the lever in posi-
tion D, keeping the accelerator pedal
lightly depressed to ensure automatic
gear changes at comparatively low
engine speeds.
Accelerating and overtaking
Depress the accelerator pedal firmly
and fully (so that it goes beyond the
kickdown point).
This will enable you to change down
to the optimum gear within the
engine range.
For safety reasons, do not
switch off the ignition before
the vehicle has come to a
complete standstill.
