Switching off
The system assists the driver by acting on
the steering, acceleration and braking,
within the limits of the laws of physics and the
capabilities of the vehicle. Certain road
infrastructure elements or vehicles present on
the road may not be properly seen or may be
poorly interpreted by the camera and radar,
resulting in an unexpected change in direction,

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.
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.
DS DRIVE ASSIST
Only available on versions with automatic
gearbox.
This system automatically adjusts the speed and
corrects the trajectory, using the Adaptive Cruise
Control with Stop & Go function in conjunction
with the Lane Positioning Assist.
These two functions must be activated and in
operation.
To modify the cruise speed setting using the
speed suggested by the Speed Limit Recognition
and Recommendation shown on the instrument
panel:
►ꢀ Press button 5 once; a message is displayed to
confirm the memorisation request.
With the Stop function, the system manages the
braking until the vehicle comes to a complete
stop.
