Malfunctions
Depending on the vehicle’s equipment:In the event of a system malfunction, this
warning lamp flashes on the instrument
panel.
The warning lamp in this button flashes and a message appears, accompanied by
an audible signal.
Have the vehicle checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
The vehicle stalls in STOP mode
All of the instrument panel warning lamps come
on if there is a fault.
Depending on version, a warning message
may also be displayed, prompting you to place
the gear selector in position N and depress the
brake pedal.
►

Switch off the ignition then start the engine
again with the key or the " ST

ART/STOP" button.
The Stop & Start system requires a 12 V battery of specific technology and
specification.
All work concerning the battery must be
carried out only by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Under-inflation detection
This system automatically checks the tyre pressures while driving.
It compares the information given by the wheel
speed sensors with reference values, which
must be reinitialised every time the tyre
pressures are adjusted or a wheel changed.
The system triggers an alert as soon as it
detects a drop in the inflation pressure of one or
more tyres.
Under-inflation detection does not
replace the need for vigilance on the part
of the driver.
This system does not avoid the need to
regularly check the tyre pressures (including
the spare wheel), especially before a long
journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres, particularly
in adverse conditions (heavy load, high
speed, long journey):
–

worsens road-holding.
–


lengthens braking distances.
–


causes premature wear of the tyres.
–


increases energy consumption.
The inflation pressures defined for the vehicle can be found on the tyre pressure
label.
For more information on the Identification
markings, refer to the corresponding section.

102
Driving
On detecting speed limit information, the system
displays the value.


For a suggested maximum speed, the first time
that the vehicle exceeds it by more than 3 mph
(5 km/h) (e.g. 59 mph (95 km/h)), the speed is
displayed and flashes for 10 seconds (depending
on version).
Operating limits
The system does not take account of reduced
speed limits, especially those imposed in the
following cases:
– Poor weather (rain, snow).
– Atmospheric pollution.
– Towing.
– Driving with a space-saver type spare wheel
or snow chains fitted.
– Tyre repaired using the temporary puncture
repair kit.
– Young drivers.
The system may not display the speed limit if it
does not detect a speed limit sign within a preset
period and in the following situations:
– Road signs that are obstructed, non-standard,
damaged or bent.
– Obsolete or incorrect maps.
► ensure that the mat is secured correctly ,
► never fit one mat on top of another .
Units of speed
Ensure that the units of speed displayed
on the instrument panel (mph or km/h) are
those for the country you are driving in.
If this is not the case, when the vehicle is
stationary, set the display to the required
units of speed so that it complies with what is
authorised locally.
In case of doubt, contact a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop.
Speed Limit Recognition
and Recommendation
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids .


This system displays the maximum authorised
speed in 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 details from the navigation system
mapping.
You should update your navigation mapping regularly 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 so that you
observe 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 aid 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 is designed to detect signs that
conform to the Vienna Convention on road
signs.
Specific speed limits, such as those for
heavy goods vehicles, are not displayed.
The display of the speed limit in the
instrument panel is updated as you pass
a speed limit sign intended for cars (light
vehicles).
Activation / Deactivation
By default, the system is automatically activated
at every engine start.
It is set via the Driving / Vehicle touch
screen menu.

Cruise control - particular
recommendations
For the safety of everyone, only use the
cruise control where the driving
conditions allow running at a constant speed
and keeping an adequate safety distance.
Remain vigilant when the cruise control is
activated. If you hold one of the speed setting
modification buttons, a very rapid change in
the speed of your vehicle may occur.
When descending a steep hill , the cruise
control system cannot prevent the vehicle
from exceeding the set speed. Brake if
necessary to control the speed of your
vehicle.
On steep climbs or when towing, the set
speed may not be reached or maintained.
Exceeding the programmed speed
setting
The speed setting can be exceeded
temporarily by pressing the accelerator
pedal firmly beyond the point of resistance
(the programmed speed flashes).
To return to the speed setting, release
the accelerator pedal (when this speed is
reached again, the display of the speed stops
flashing).
Operating limits
Never use the system in the following
situations:
–

In an urban area with the risk of
pedestrians crossing the road.
–


In heavy traffic (except versions with the
Stop & Go function).

again: the display of the programmed speed
setting becomes steady again.
When descending a steep hill, the cruise
control system cannot prevent the
vehicle from exceeding the programmed
speed.
You may have to brake to control the speed of
your vehicle. In this case, the cruise control is
automatically paused.
To activate the system again, with the speed
of the vehicle above 25 mph (40 km/h), press
button 4.
Switching off
► Turn the thumbwheel 1 to the "0” position: the

malfunction.
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT
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.

108
Driving
Mode D or M must be selected.
► With the vehicle moving, press one of the
buttons 2 or 3: the current speed of your vehicle
becomes the cruise speed setting.
– the current speed of your vehicle, if it is over
19 mph (30 km/h),
– 19 mph (30 km/h), if it is below 19 mph
(30 km/h).
Saving your settings
Switching off the ignition cancels any speed
setting value chosen by the driver.
The inter-vehicle distance is set at " Normal"
(2 dashes) by default. Otherwise, the last
value selected will be used when the system is
switched on.
Pause
The cruise control can be paused manually:
– either by action by the driver:
• On the button 4 (Pause).
• On the brake pedal.
• On the electric parking brake control.
• On the clutch pedal, by pressing for
approximately 10 seconds or more.
• When changing from mode D to N with an
automatic gearbox.
– or automatically:
• If the ESC system is activated, for safety
reasons.
• When the speed of the vehicle goes below
19 mph (30 km/h) (1,100 rpm) with a manual
gearbox.
With the Stop function (with the EAT8 automatic
gearbox), the system manages braking until the
vehicle comes to a complete stop.
The brake lamps come on if the vehicle is slowed down by the system.
It can be dangerous to drive if the brake
lamps are not in perfect working order.


To do this, it uses a radar fitted 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 detected or may be
misinterpreted by the camera and/or radar
(e.g. a lorry), which may lead to a poor
assessment of distances and lead to the
vehicle accelerating or braking
inappropriately.
Operating principle
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
completely (with the EAT8 automatic gearbox),
using engine braking and the braking system.
If the vehicle in front accelerates or changes
lane, the cruise control progressively accelerates
your vehicle to return to the programmed speed.
The brake lamps illuminate as soon as the braking system is activated to
decelerate the vehicle.
This system is a driving aid that cannot, in any circumstances, replace the need
to observe speed limits and safety distances,
nor the need for vigilance on the part of the
driver.
The driver must remain in control of their
vehicle at all times by keeping both hands on
the steering wheel and keeping their feet near
the brake and accelerator pedals.

Driving
As a precaution, it is recommended that you select a cruise speed close to the
current speed of your vehicle, so as to avoid
any sudden acceleration or deceleration of
the vehicle.
Modification of the inter-
vehicle distance setting


Three threshold settings are available for the
inter-vehicle distance:
–
"Distant" (3 dashes),
–
"Normal" (2 dashes),
–
"Close" (1 dash).
With the engine running and with the
thumbwheel at the " CRUISE" position:
►

Press button
6 to display the selection screen
for the inter-vehicle distance setting.
►

Pressing button 6

repeatedly will cycle
through the predefined settings.
The selection screen closes after a few seconds.
The change then takes effect.
This setting remains memorised, whatever the
state of the system and even when the ignition is
switched off.
The selection also applies to the stopping distance (with EAT6 and EAT8 automatic
gearbox).
Exceeding the programmed
setting
It is possible to exceed the speed setting
temporarily by depressing the accelerator pedal.
The cruise control no longer manages the
braking system during this period.
Simply release the accelerator pedal to return to
the programmed speed.
If the programmed speed setting is exceeded,
the display of the speed setting disappears
and a message "Cruise control suspended" is
displayed until the accelerator pedal is released.
