Driving
Malfunction
Dashes are displayed (flashing, initially, then
fixed) in the event of a speed limiter malfunction.
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Cruise control - particular
recommendations
For the safety of everyone, only use the
cruise control where the driving
conditions allow running at a constant speed
and keeping an adequate safety distance.
Remain vigilant when the cruise control is
activated. If you hold one of the speed setting
modification buttons, a very rapid change in
the speed of your vehicle may occur.
When descending a steep hill , the cruise
control system cannot prevent the vehicle
from exceeding the set speed. Brake if
necessary to control the speed of your
vehicle.
On steep climbs or when towing, the set
speed may not be reached or maintained.
Exceeding the programmed speed
setting
You can temporarily exceed the speed
setting by pressing the accelerator pedal (the
programmed speed flashes).
To return to the speed setting, release the
accelerator pedal (when the set speed is
reached again, the displayed speed stops
flashing).
Operating limits
Never use the system in the following
situations:
– in an urban area with the risk of
pedestrians crossing the road,
– in heavy traffic,
– on winding or steep roads,
– on slippery or flooded roads,
– in unfavourable climatic conditions,
– driving on a speed circuit,
– driving on a rolling road,
– use of snow chains, non-slip covers or
studded tyres.
Programmable cruise
control
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids and to
Cruise control - particular recommendations .
This system automatically keeps the
vehicle’s speed at the cruise value
programmed by the driver (speed setting),
without using the accelerator pedal.
The cruise control is switched on manually.
It requires a minimum vehicle speed of 25 mph
(40 km/h).
With a manual gearbox, third gear or higher must
be engaged.
With an automatic gearbox, mode D or second
gear or higher in mode M must be engaged.
The cruise control remains active after
changing gear, regardless of the gearbox
type, on engines fitted with Stop & Start.
Switching off the ignition cancels any
speed setting.
Steering mounted control
1. ON ( CRUISE position) / OFF (position 0 )
2. Activation of cruise control at the current
speed / decrease speed setting
3. Activation of cruise control at the current
speed / increase speed setting
4. Pausing / resumption of cruise control with
the speed setting previously stored
5. Depending on version:
Display of speed thresholds recorded using
Memorising speeds
