Driving
6Poor visibility (inadequate street lighting,
heavy rain, thick fog, snowfall), dazzle
(headlamps of an oncoming vehicle, low sun,
reflections on a damp road, leaving a tunnel,
alternating shade and light) can also impair
detection performance.
In the event of a grille replacement, contact
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop
to recalibrate the camera; otherwise, the
operation of the associated driving aids may
be disrupted.
Other cameras
The images from the camera(s)
displayed on the touch screen or on the
instrument panel may be distorted by the
relief.
In the presence of areas in shade, or in
conditions of bright sunlight or inadequate
lighting, the image may be darkened and with
lower contrast.
Obstacles may appear further away than they
actually are.
Sensors
The operation of the sensors, as well as
any associated functions, may be disrupted
by noise pollution such as that emitted by
noisy vehicles and machinery (e.g.
lorries,
pneumatic drills), by the accumulation of
snow or dead leaves on the road or in the
event of damaged bumpers.
When reverse gear is engaged, an audible
signal (long beep) indicates that the sensors
may be dirty.
A front or rear impact to the vehicle can
upset the sensors’ settings, which is not
always detected by the system: distance
measurements may be distorted.
The sensors do not systematically detect
obstacles that are too low (pavements, studs)
or too thin (trees, posts, wire fences).
Certain obstacles located in the sensors’ blind
spots may not be detected or may no longer
be detected during the manoeuvre.
Certain materials (fabrics) absorb sound
waves: pedestrians may not be detected.
Maintenance
Clean the bumpers and door mirrors and
the field of vision of the cameras regularly.
When washing your vehicle at high pressure,
direct the spray from at least 30
cm away
from the sensors and cameras.
Mats
The use of mats not approved by
PEUGEOT may interfere with the operation of
the speed limiter or cruise control.
To avoid any risk of jamming the pedals:
–
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
in 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 limiter
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids .
This system prevents the vehicle from
exceeding the speed programmed by the
driver (speed setting).
The speed limiter is switched on manually.
Steering-mounted control

2. Reduce the speed setting
3. Increase the speed setting
76
Driving
To return to the speed setting, release the
accelerator pedal (when the set speed is
reached again, the displayed 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.
– On winding or steep roads.
– On slippery or flooded roads.
– In poor weather conditions.
– Driving on a speed circuit.
– Driving on a rolling road.
– When using snow chains, non-slip covers
or studded tyres.
Cruise control
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids and to
Cruise control - particular recommendations.
This system automatically keeps the vehicle’s speed at the cruise value
programmed by the driver (speed setting),
without using the accelerator pedal.
Cruise control is switched on manually.
It requires a minimum vehicle speed of 25 mph
(40 km/h).
Information displayed on
the instrument panel
4. Speed limiter mode selection indication.
5. Speed setting value.
Switching on/Pausing
► Press button 1 to select speed limiter mode
(LIMIT); the function is paused.
►
If the limit speed setting is suitable, press
button
2 to switch the speed limiter on.
►
Pressing button 1
(LIMIT) deactivates the
function.
If the conditions for switching on the
speed limiter are not met, a message
appears on the instrument panel display.
Adjusting the limit speed setting
To modify the limit speed setting based on the
vehicle’s current speed:
►
Press and hold button
2
or 3 to change the
value in steps of +
or - 1 mph (or 1 km/h).
► Briefly press button 2 or 3 as many times as
necessary to change the value in steps of + or
-
5 mph (or 5 km/h).
Exceeding the speed setting
► Fully depress the accelerator pedal.
The speed limiter is deactivated and the
displayed speed setting flashes.
►
Release the accelerator pedal to return to
below the programmed speed.
On a steep descent or in the event of
sharp acceleration, the speed limiter will
not be able to prevent the vehicle from
exceeding the speed setting.
If necessary, use the brakes to control the
speed of your vehicle.
Switching off
► Press button 1 (OFF): speed limiter
information is no longer displayed.
Overspeed alert at 75
mph (120 km/h)
(Depending on country of sale)
The overspeed alert system triggers an alert as
soon as it detects that the speed is greater than
75 mph (120 km/h).
This warning lamp flashes on the
instrument panel accompanied by an
audible signal.
The alert is maintained as long as the speed of
the vehicle is above 75 mph (120 km/h).
The overspeed alert system cannot be deactivated.
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 down, 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
You can temporarily exceed the speed
setting by pressing the accelerator pedal (the
programmed speed flashes).

Changing the cruise speed
setting
The cruise control must be active.
To change the cruise speed setting, based on
the vehicle’s current speed:
►
Press and hold button
2
or 3 to change the
value in steps of +
or - 1 mph (or 1 km/h).
►
Briefly press button
2 or 3 as many times
as required to change the value in steps of +
or
-
5 mph (or 5 km/h).
As a precaution, we recommend setting a cruise speed fairly close to the current
speed of your vehicle, to avoid any sudden
acceleration or deceleration of the vehicle.
Switching off
► Press button 1 (OFF): the cruise control
information disappears from the screen.
Lane Departure Warning
System
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids .
This system, using a camera which recognises
solid or broken lines, detects the involuntary
crossing of longitudinal traffic lane markings on
the ground.
If the driver's attention drops and the speed
is higher than 37 mph (65
km/h), the system
triggers a warning if there is an unexpected
change of direction.
This system is particularly useful on motorways
and main roads.
Conditions for operation
– Vehicle speed above 40 mph (65 km/h).
– T raffic lane with one or more (continuous or
broken) ground markings.
–
Hazard warning lamps off.
–
Direction indicators not activated.
–
ESC system activated and operational.
