lighting, the image may be darkened and with

lower contrast.

Obstacles may appear further away than they

actually are.

When washing your vehicle at high pressure,

direct the spray from at least 30 cm away

from the radar, sensors and cameras.

Mats

Sensors

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.

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 and mirrors.

When reverse gear is engaged, an audible

signal (long beep) indicates that the sensors

may be dirty.

This system displays the maximum speed

authorised locally on the instrument panel, using:

– Speed limit signs detected by the camera.

– Speed limit information from the navigation

system’s mapping.

– Signs indicating a shared traﬃc zone detected

by the camera (depending on version).

Units of speed

Ensure that the units of speed displayed

on 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.

Sign detected

Suggested speed

(calculated)

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.

traﬃc zone

Example:

10 mph or 20 km/h

the units on the

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.

In case of doubt, contact a PEUGEOT dealer

or a qualiﬁed workshop.

Clean the bumpers and door mirrors and

the ﬁeld of vision of the cameras regularly.

105

Driving

The units for the speed limit (mph or

km/h) depend on the country you are

driving in.

This should be taken into account to ensure

you observe the speed limit.

For the system to work properly when

changing countries, the speed unit of the

instrument panel must match that of the

country you are driving in.

Automatic sign reading is a driving aid

system and does not always display the

correct speed limits.

68 mph (110 km/h)

(for example)

The speed limit signs present on the road

always take priority over those displayed by

the system.

The system is designed to detect signs that

conform to the Vienna Convention on road

signs.

Speed limit in case

of snow

If the outside

temperature is below

3°C:

19 mph (30 km/h)

(for example)

with a "snowﬂake"

Speed limit when

towing

If an approved towing

device is ﬁxed to the

vehicle:

56 mph (90 km/h)

(for example)

Example:

Speciﬁc speed limits, such as those for

heavy goods vehicles, are not displayed.

The display of the speed limit on the

instrument panel is updated when passing

a speed limit sign intended for cars (light

vehicles).

Activation/Deactivation

By default, the system is automatically activated

at every engine start.

Navigation mapping should be regularly

updated in order to receive accurate

speed limit information from the system.

The settings are changed via the

Driving/Vehicle touch screen menu.

Driving

using the speed limiter or cruise control 'store'

For a suggested maximum speed, the ﬁrst time

that the vehicle exceeds it by more than 3 mph

(5 km/h) (e.g. 59 mph (95 km/h)), the speed is

displayed and ﬂashes for 10 seconds (depending

on version).

button.

If rain is detected, the system will suggest to

the driver a speed setting lower than the speed

read/obtained from the mapping system in order

to best suit the weather conditions (e.g. on a

motorway, the suggested speed will be 68 mph

(110 km/h) instead of 81 mph (130 km/h)).

Operating limits

The system does not take account of reduced

speed limits, especially those imposed in the

following cases:

– Atmospheric pollution.

– Towing.

– Driving with a space-saver type spare wheel

or snow chains ﬁtted.

– Tyre repaired using the temporary puncture

repair kit.

For more information on the Speed

limiter, Cruise control or Adaptive

cruise control, refer to the corresponding

sections.

– Young drivers.

The system may not display the speed limit if it

does not detect a speed limit sign within a preset

period and in the following situations:

– Road signs that are obstructed, non-standard,

damaged or bent.

The system is active but is not detecting speed

limit information.

1. Speed limiter/cruise control mode selection

2. Memorise the speed setting

– Obsolete or incorrect maps.

Recommendation

On detecting speed limit information, the system

displays the value.

In addition to Road signs recognition, the

driver can select the speed displayed as a speed

setting for the speed limiter or cruise control

Storing the speed setting

For more information, 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.

The minimum speed setting is 19 mph (30 km/h).

The speed setting remains in the system

memory when the ignition is switched oﬀ.

► Switch on the speed limiter/cruise control.

The speed limiter/cruise control information is

displayed.

Upon detecting a sign suggesting a new speed

setting, the system displays the value and

"MEM" ﬂashes for a few seconds, prompting you

to save it as a new speed setting.

This additional system recognises these road

signs and displays them on the instrument panel

if the appropriate display mode is selected:

– No entry: when entering a lane in the wrong

direction, an alert message, including the symbol

of this sign, is displayed on the instrument panel

(request to check the direction of traﬃc).
