Driving -> Speed limiter for Your Citroen Ds4 SUV First Generation (2010-2018)

Speed limiter  
System which prevents the vehicle from  
exceeding the speed programmed by the driver.  
When the programmed speed limit is reached,  
pressing the accelerator pedal no longer has  
any effect.  
Steering mounted controls  
Displays in the instrument panel  
Operation  
The speed limiter is switched on manually: it  
requires a programmed speed of at least  
20 mph (30 km/h).  
The speed limiter is switched off by manual  
operation of the control.  
The programmed speed can be exceeded  
temporarily by pressing the accelerator firmly  
beyond the point of resistance.  
To return to the programmed speed, simply  
release the accelerator pedal.  
The functions of this system are grouped  
together on the steering mounted controls.  
1. Speed limiter mode selection wheel.  
2. Programmed value decrease button.  
3. Programmed value increase button.  
4. Speed limiter on / off button.  
The programmed information is grouped  
together in the instrument panel screen.  
6. Speed limiter on / off indication.  
7. Speed limiter mode selection indication.  
8. Programmed speed value.  
The programmed speed remains in the memory  
when the ignition is switched off.  
9. Selection of a memorised speed.  
(see "Memorising speeds")  
5. List of memorised speeds display button.  
(see the "Memorising speeds" section)  
The speed limiter cannot, in any circumstances,  
replace the need to respect speed limits,  
nor can it replace the need for vigilance and  
responsibility on the part of the driver.

Programming  
Exiting the speed limiter mode  
Turn dial 1 to the "0" position: the speed  
Turn dial 1 to the "LIMIT" position: the  
speed limiter mode is selected but is not  
switched on (Pause).  
limiter mode is deselected. It disappears  
from the screen.  
You do not have to switch the speed limiter on  
in order to set the speed.  
Operating fault  
In the event of a fault with the speed limiter,  
the speed is cleared resulting in flashing of the  
dashes.  
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a  
qualified workshop.  
Set the speed value by pressing button 2  
or 3 (e.g.: 55 mph (90 km/h)).  
You can then change the programmed speed using buttons 2 and 3:  
-
-
by + or - 1 mph (km/h) = short press,  
in steps of + or - 5 mph (km/h) = maintained press.  
If speed memorisation is available and activated on your vehicle, the  
programmed speed will stop at the closest memorised speed; refer to the  
corresponding paragraph.  
Switch the speed limiter on by pressing button 4.  
Switch the speed limiter off by pressing button 4: the display  
confirms that it has been switched off (Pause).  
Switch the speed limiter back on by pressing button 4 again.  
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 programmed  
speed.  
Exceeding the programmed speed  
Pressing the accelerator pedal to exceed the programmed speed will not have  
any effect unless you press the pedal firmly past the point of resistance.  
The speed limiter is deactivated temporarily and the programmed speed,  
which is still displayed, flashes.  
Returning to the programmed speed, by means of intentional or unintentional  
deceleration of the vehicle, automatically cancels the flashing of the  
programmed speed.  
To avoid any risk of jamming of the  
pedals:  
-
ensure that the mat is positioned  
correctly,  
-
do not fit one mat on top of another.
