This function allows speeds to be saved,

which can then be offered to set the two

systems: the speed limiter (to limit the

speed of the vehicle) or the cruise control

(for a vehicle cruising speed).

Driving

The automatic reading of road signs is a

driving assistance system and does not

always display speed limits correctly.

The speed limit signs present on the

road always take priority over the

display by the system.

Speed limit recognition

Principles

Depending on equipment, the

system takes account of speed limit

information from the navigation system

mapping.

The system cannot in any

circumstances replace the need for

vigilance on the part of the driver.

The driver must observe the driving

regulations and must adapt the speed

of the vehicle to suit the weather and

traffic.

It is possible for the system to not

display the speed limit if it does not

detect a speed limit sign within a preset

period.

This system allows the speed limit detected by

the camera to be displayed in the instrument

panel.

Specific speed limits, such as those for heavy

goods vehicles, are not displayed.

The display of the speed limit in the instrument

panel is updated as you pass a speed limit sign

intended for cars (light vehicles).

The system is designed to detect signs

that conform to the Vienna Convention

on road signs.

6

Depending on equipment, using a camera at

the top of the windscreen, this system detects

and reads speed limit and end of speed limit

signs.

To maintain correct operation of the

system: regularly clean the area in front

of the camera.

The units for the speed limits (mph or

km/h) depend on the country you are

driving in.

It should be taken into account so that

you observe the speed limit.

For the system to operate correctly

when you change country, the units for

speed in the instrument panel must be

those for the country you are driving in.

For the speed limit information given

by the navigation system to be correct,

your mapping software must be

regularly updated.

Depending on equipment, the system takes

account of the camera and information from the

navigation system mapping.

Comments

No vehicle detected:

Detection of a vehicle, at the limit of the range of the radar:

the system operates as a standard cruise control.

"SPeeD ADJuSTeD"

"Cruise control paused"

Detection of a vehicle that is too close or running at a speed lower than your vehicle's

cruise speed setting.

The system uses engine braking to slow your vehicle (within a limit of 20 mph (30 km/h))

and then hold it at the speed of the vehicle in front so as to observe the programmed inter-

vehicle time.

When automatically slowing down behind a vehicle, your true speed may be higher than

the "adjusted speed" displayed.

When the adjusted speed reaches the limit of regulation (speed setting less than 20 mph

(30 km/h)), the adjusted speed flashes together with the speed setting to signal that

automatic deactivation of the system is imminent.

If the system exceeds the limit of speed adjustment possible by the system and in the

absence of any reaction by the driver (operation of the direction indicator, change of lane,

reduction of the speed of the vehicle), the system is automatically paused.

The display of the deactivation message is accompanied by an audible signal.

236

Driving

Limits of operation

When the dynamic cruise control is

automatically paused, it can only be

reactivated when safe conditions are

restored. The message "Activation

not possible, conditions unsuitable"

is displayed while reactivation is not

possible.

The speed regulation range is limited to a

maximum difference of 20 mph (30 km/h)

between the speed setting and the speed of

the vehicle in front.

Above this, the system goes into pause if the

safe distance becomes too small.

-

vehicles not running in the middle of the

lane,

When the conditions allow, it is

recommended that the function be

reactivated by pressing button 2 (SeT+)

or 3 (SeT-), which will make the current

speed of your vehicle the new cruise

speed setting, rather than by pressing

button 4 (on/pause) which reactivates

the cruise control using the old cruise

speed setting, which may be very

different from the current speed of your

vehicle.

The dynamic cruise control uses only engine

braking to slow the vehicle. Consequently the

vehicle loses speed slowly, as when releasing

the accelerator pedal.

The system is paused automatically:

-

if the vehicle in front slows down too much

or too suddenly, and the driver does not

brake,

-

if a vehicle comes between your vehicle

and the vehicle in front,

if the system does not slow the vehicle

enough to continue to maintain a safe

distance, for example when descending a

steep hill.

-

vehicles entering a corner,

vehicles changing lane at the last moment.

6

The cruise control does not take

account of:

As the radar's field of detection is quite narrow,

it is possible that the system may not detect:

-

stationary vehicles,

vehicles driving in the opposite

direction.

-

vehicles of reduced width, such as

motorcycles, for example,

237

Driving

Operating fault

The dynamic cruise control operates

by day and at night, in fog or moderate

rainfall.

When the cruise control is working, take

care if making a maintained press on

one of the cruise control programmed

speed modification buttons: this can

lead to a very quick change in the

speed of your vehicle.

In the event of a fault with the dynamic cruise

control, you are alerted by an audible signal

and display of the message message "Driving

aid functions fault".

Have the system checked by a PeugeoT

dealer or a qualified workshop.

Do not use the dynamic cruise control

on slippery surfaces or in heavy traffic.

The system does not act on the braking

system, but works only with engine

braking.

The regulation range is limited: there

will no longer be any adjustment of

speed if the difference between the

programmed speed setting and the

speed of the vehicle in front becomes

too high.

When descending a steep hill, the

cruise control may not be able to

prevent the vehicle from exceeding the

programmed speed.

When ascending a steep hill or when

towing, it might not be possible to

achieve or maintain the programmed

speed.

The dynamic cruise control cannot

in any circumstances replace the

observation of speed limits, nor the

need for the vigilance on the part of

the driver.

If the difference between the

programmed speed setting and the

speed of the vehicle in front is too

great, the speed cannot be adjusted:

the cruise control is automatically

deactivated.

The use of mats not approved by

PeugeoT may interfere with the

operation of the dynamic cruise control.

To avoid any risk of jamming the pedals:

-

ensure that mats are secured

correctly,

-

never fit one mat on top of another.

It is recommended that you always keep

your feet close to the pedals.
