Driving
The speed limiter is temporarily deactivated and
the displayed speed setting flashes.
Operating limits
Never use the system in the following
situations:
Cruise control - Specific
recommendations
► Release the accelerator pedal to return to
below the speed setting.
► 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.
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.
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.
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.
On steep climbs or when towing, the set
speed may not be reached or maintained.
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 heavy traffic (except versions with the
Stop & Go function).
On a steep descent or in the event of
6 sharp acceleration, the speed limiter
will not be able to prevent the vehicle from
exceeding the speed setting.
If necessary, apply the brakes to control your
vehicle’s speed.
► On winding or steep roads.
► On slippery or flooded roads.
► In poor weather conditions.
► In the event of restricted visibility for the
driver.
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.
Off
► When using snow chains or non-slip
covers.
► Press 1-LIMIT: the speed limiter information
display disappears.
Malfunction
Exceeding the programmed speed
setting
Cruise control
In the event of a malfunction, dashes are
displayed flashing and then fixed instead of the
speed setting.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
You can temporarily exceed the speed
setting by pressing the accelerator pedal
(the pause signal will appear). To return to
the speed setting, press SET+/SET-, the set
speed will be equal to the current vehicle
speed (when the set speed is reached again,
the pause signal disappears).
For more information, refer to the General
recommendations on the use of driving
and manoeuvring aids and the Specific
recommendations on cruise control.
This system automatically maintains
the vehicle’s speed at the value
programmed by the driver (speed
setting), without the use of the
accelerator pedal.
Cruise control is switched on manually.
