Get Driving -> Speed limiter/cruise control Guide for Renault Scenic 4 Door Fourth Generation (2017-2022)

SPEED LIMITER (1/3)

Switching on

Press switch 1 on side . The indica-

^{tor light} comes on, lit orange, and

the message “Speed limiter” appears

on the instrument panel, accompanied

by dashes to indicate that the speed

limiter function is activated and waiting

to store a limited speed.

To store the current speed, press

switch 2 side a (+): the limited speed

replaces the dashes.

The minimum stored speed is 20 mph

(30 km/h).

The speed limiter function helps you

stay within the driving speed limit that

you choose, known as the limit speed.

Controls

1 Main “On/Off” switch.

2 Controls for:

a speed limiter activation, memory

and increase (+);

b decreasing the speed limiter (-).

3 Activation and recall of memorised

limited speed (R).

4 Speed limiter function standby (with

limited speed memory) (O).

If you wish, you can associate the

speed limiter and the “Overspeed

alert” function (please refer to the in-

formation on the “Overspeed alert”

in Section 2).

SPEED LIMITER (2/3)

Varying the limit speed

Exceeding the limit speed

The speed limiter can be changed by

repeatedly pressing the switch 2:

It is possible to exceed the limit speed

at any time. To do this: press the accel-

erator pedal firmly and fully (beyond

the resistance point).

– side a (+) to increase the speed;

– side b (-) to reduce the speed.

a

While the speed is being exceeded, the

speed limiter flashes red on the instru-

ment panel.

Then, release the accelerator: the

speed limiter function will return as

soon as you reach a speed lower than

the stored speed.

b

Limited speed cannot be maintained

If driving up or down a steep gradient,

the system is unable to maintain the

limited speed: the stored speed flashes

red on the instrument panel and a beep

sounds at regular intervals to inform

you.

Driving

When a limited speed has been stored

and this speed is not reached, driving is

similar to driving a vehicle without the

speed limiter function.

Once you have reached the stored

speed, no effort on the accelera-

tor pedal will allow you to exceed

the programmed speed except in an

emergency (refer to information on

“Exceeding the limit speed”).

The speed limiter function is

in no way linked to the brak-

ing system.

SPEED LIMITER (3/3)

Recalling the limit speed

If a speed has been saved, it can be re-

called by pressing switch 3 (R).

Putting the function on

standby

The speed limiter function is sus-

pended when you press switch 4 (O).

In this case, the limit speed remains

stored and the message “Memorised”

accompanied by this speed appears on

the instrument panel.

Switching off the function

The speed limiter function is deac-

tivated if you press switch 1: in this

case a speed is no longer stored. The

orange instrument panel warning light

 goes out, confirming that the func-

tion is stopped.

When the speed limiter is set to

standby, pressing on the side a (+)

of the switch 2 reactivates the func-

tion without taking into account the

memorised speed: it is the speed at

which the vehicle is moving that is

taken into account.

This function is an addi-

can under no circumstances replace

the driver’s responsibility to respect

speed limits and to be vigilant (the

driver must always be ready to

brake). Cruise control must not be

used in heavy traffic, on winding or

slippery roads (black ice, aquaplan-

ing, gravel) and during bad weather

(fog, rain, side winds etc.).

2 Controls for:

a cruising speed activation, storage

and increase (+);

This cruising speed may be set at any

speed above 20 mph (30 km/h).

b decreasing cruising speed (-).

3 Activation with recall of saved cruis-

ing speed (R).

There is a risk of accidents.

4 Switch the function to standby (with

cruising speed saved) (O).

The cruise control function

is in no way linked to the

braking system.

2.66

CRUISE CONTROL (2/4)

Activating cruise control

At a steady speed (above approxi-

mately 18.6 mph (30 km/h)) press

switch 2 side a (+): the function is acti-

vated and the current speed is memo-

rised.

The cruising speed replaces the dashes

and cruise control is confirmed by the

appearance of the message “Cruise

^{control” and the warning light}.

If you try to activate the function below

20 mph (30 km/h), the message “Invalid

speed” will be displayed and the func-

tion will remain inactive.

Switching on

Driving

Once a cruising speed is memorised

and the cruise control function is active,

you may lift your foot off the accelera-

tor pedal.

Press switch 1 on side .

^{Indicator light} comes on, lit green,

and the message “Cruise control” ap-

pears on the instrument panel, accom-

panied by dashes to indicate that the

cruise control function is activated and

waiting to store a cruising speed.

Please note that you must

keep your feet close to the

pedals in order to react in

an emergency.

2.67

CRUISE CONTROL (3/4)

Exceeding the cruising speed

The cruising speed may be exceeded

at any time by depressing the accelera-

tor pedal. While overtaking, the cruis-

ing speed flashes red on the instrument

panel.

Then, release the accelerator: after a

few seconds, the vehicle will automati-

cally return to its set cruising speed.

Cruising speed cannot be

maintained

If driving up or down a steep gradi-

ent, the system is unable to maintain

the cruising speed: the stored speed is

flashes red on the instrument panel to

inform you of this situation.

Adjusting the cruising speed

The cruising speed can be changed by

pressing the switch 2 repeatedly:

– side a (+) to increase the speed;

– side b (-) to reduce the speed.

The cruise control function

is in no way linked to the

braking system.

2.68

CRUISE CONTROL (4/4)

Returning to the cruising speed

If a speed is stored, it can be recalled,

once you are sure that the road con-

ditions are suitable (traffic, road sur-

face, weather conditions, etc.). Press

switch 3 (R) if the vehicle speed is

above 20 mph (30 km/h).

When the stored speed is recalled,

activation of the cruise control is con-

firmed by the illumination of the cruis-

ing speed in green, along with the mes-

sage “Cruise control”.

NB: if the speed previously stored is

much higher than the current speed,

the vehicle will accelerate more rapidly

to reach this threshold.

Putting the function on

standby

The function is set to standby if you:

– use the switch 4 (O);

Switching off the function

The cruise control function is deacti-

vated if you press switch 1: in this case

a speed is no longer stored. The green

 warning light and message on the

instrument panel goes out to confirm

that the function is deactivated.

– the brake pedal;

– depress the clutch pedal or the shift

into neutral if the vehicle has an au-

tomatic gearbox.

In these three cases, the cruising

speed remains stored and the mes-

sage “Memorised” accompanied by this

speed appears on the instrument panel.

Standby is confirmed by the display of

the cruising speed in grey and the mes-

sage “Memorised”.

When the cruise control is set to

standby, pressing on the side a (+)

of the switch 2 reactivates the cruise

control function without taking into

account the stored speed: it is the

speed at which the vehicle is moving

that is taken into account.

Putting the cruise control

on standby or switching it

off does not cause a rapid

reduction in speed: you

must brake by depressing the brake

pedal.
