To modify the cruise speed setting based on the
speed suggested by the Road signs recognition,
as shown on the instrument panel:
When descending a steep hill, the cruise
control system cannot prevent the vehicle from
exceeding the set speed. Brake if necessary to
control the vehicle speed.
Switching off
►ꢀ Turn the thumbwheel 1 to the "OFF" position:
speed limiter information is no longer displayed.
►ꢀ Press button 5 once; a message is displayed to
confirm the memorisation request.
On steep climbs or when towing, the set speed
may not be reached or maintained.
Malfunction
►ꢀ Press button 5 again to save the suggested
speed.
The speed is immediately shown on the
instrument panel as the new speed setting.
Exceeding the programmed speed setting
You can temporarily exceed the speed
setting by pressing the accelerator pedal (the
programmed speed flashes).
Temporarily exceeding the
speed setting
►ꢀ Fully depress the accelerator pedal.
The speed limiter is temporarily deactivated and
the displayed speed setting flashes.
In the event of a malfunction, dashes are
displayed flashing and then fixed instead of the
speed setting.
To return to the speed setting, release the
accelerator pedal (when the set speed is
reached again, the displayed speed stops
flashing).
Have it checked by a dealer or a qualified
workshop.
►ꢀ Release the accelerator pedal to return to

Operating limits
Cruise control - Specific
recommendations
Never use the system in the following
situations:
When exceeding the speed is not due to the
driver's action (e.g. in case of a steep slope), an
audible signal is triggered immediately.
– In an urban area with the risk of pedestrians
crossing the road.
The cruise control function does not
guarantee compliance with the maximum
authorised speed and the safety distance
between vehicles, the driver remains
responsible for their driving.
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.
– In heavy traffic (except versions with the
Stop & Go function).
– On winding or steep roads.
– On slippery or flooded roads.
– In poor weather conditions.
– In the event of restricted visibility for the
driver.
If necessary, apply the brakes to control your
vehicle’s speed.
In the interest of public safety, only use cruise
control if the traffic conditions enable vehicles
to drive at a steady speed and maintain an
adequate safety distance.
When the vehicle speed returns to the speed
setting level, the speed limiter operates again: the
speed setting display becomes fixed again.
– Driving on a speed circuit.
– Driving on a rolling road.
– When using a ‘space-saver’ type spare
wheel.
Remain vigilant while cruise control is
activated. If you press and hold one of the
speed setting modification buttons, your
vehicle may change speed very abruptly.
