If during the operation of the speed  
limiter, the system is unable to keep  
within the maximum speed (for ex-  
ample on a steep descent or under  
heavy acceleration) then the speed  
ashes. Adapt your speed as neces-  
sary.  
The function will re-engage when  
your speed returns below the de-  
sired maximum speed.  
Deactivation  
Operating fault  
Press on button 3.  
If there is a speed limiter malfunc-  
tion, a message will display accom-  
panied by an audible signal and  
lighting of the service warning lamp.  
Have it checked by a CITROËN  
dealer or a qualied workshop.  
This action causes the  
information "OFF" to  
appear on the instru-  
ment panel screen.  
This action does not cancel the  
memorised maximum speed which  
remains displayed in zone A of the  
instrument panel.  
Return to normal driving  
On a steep downhill gradi-  
ent or on sharp accelera-  
tion, the speed limiter will  
not be able to prevent the vehicle  
from exceeding the programmed  
speed.  
Use of oor mats that are not ap-  
proved by CITROËN may hinder  
access to the accelerator pedal  
and thus interfere with the function-  
ing of the speed limiter.  
Override of the programmed  
speed  
The accelerator pedal is equipped  
with an end-of-travel switch. If you  
action this switch by pressing the  
pedal hard down, you can exceed  
the memorised maximum speed at  
any time.  
During the time the speed is be-  
ing exceeded, the displayed speed  
ashes.  
You have only to release the ac-  
celerator pedal to return below the  
maximum speed and render the  
function active again.  
To avoid any risk of interfering with  
the pedals:  
IX  
-
check that the oor mat is cor-  
rectly positioned,  
) By moving the control 1 from po-  
sition "LIM" to position 0.  
) By the engine stopping.  
The speed previously chosen is still  
memorised.  
-
never use more than one oor  
mat.
