If the driver operates a direction indicator
to overtake a slower vehicle, the cruise
control allows the vehicle to temporarily
approach the vehicle in front to assist the
overtaking manoeuvre, without ever
exceeding the speed setting.
Some vehicles present on the road may
not be properly seen or may be poorly
interpreted by the camera and/or radar (e.g. a
lorry), which may lead to a poor assessment
of the distances and lead to the vehicle
inappropriately accelerating or braking.
Steering mounted control
1. ON ( CRUISE position) / OFF (position 0 )

Switching on of cruise control and choice
of speed setting
With a manual gearbox, your speed must be
between 19 and 99 mph (30 and 160 km/h).
With an automatic gearbox, mode D or M must
be selected and your speed must be between 19
and 112 mph (30 and 180 km/h).
► Press button 2 or 3 : the current speed
becomes the speed setting (minimum 19 mph
(30 km/h)) and cruise control is immediately in
operation (green display).
► Press 3 to increase or 2 to decrease the
speed setting (steps of 5 mph (km/h) if held
pressed).
Pressing and holding button 2 or
3 results in a rapid change in the speed
of the vehicle.
Pausing / resumption of cruise control
► Press 4 or press the brake pedal . To pause
cruise control, it is also possible to:
• shift from mode D to N ;
• press the clutch pedal for more than 10
seconds;
• press the electric parking brake control;
► Press 4 to restart cruise control. Cruise
control may have been paused automatically:
• when the speed of the vehicle goes below 19
mph (30 km/h) with a manual gearbox;
• when the speed of the engine goes below
1100 rpm with a manual gearbox;
• by triggering of the ESC system.
With a manual gearbox, the driver should press
the accelerator pedal to move off, then above
19 mph (30 km/h), reactivate the system by
pressing one of the buttons 2 , 3 or 4 .
With an automatic gearbox, following braking
of the vehicle bringing it to a complete stop, the
system holds the vehicle stationary; the cruise
control is paused. The driver should press
the accelerator pedal to move off, then above
19 mph (30 km/h), reactivate the system by
pressing one of the buttons 2 , 3 or 4 .
If the driver takes no action following this
immobilisation, the electric parking brake is
applied automatically after about 5 minutes.
