2.26

Switching on

Press the side switch 1



. Indicator

light 6 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 (+): the limit speed will replace

the dashes.

The minimum stored speed is 20 mph

(30 km/h).

Controls

1 Main “On/Off” switch.
2 Limit speed activation, storage and

increase switch (+).

3 Decreasing the limit speed (-).
4 Activation and recall of memorised

limit speed (R).

5 Speed limiter function standby (with

limited speed memory) (O).

The speed limiter function helps you

stay within the driving speed limit that

you choose, known as the limit speed.

SPEED LIMITER

(1/3)

2.27

Exceeding the limit speed

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).
If the speed is exceeded, the limited

speed flashes on the instrument panel

accompanied by a beep.
Then, release the accelerator: the

speed limiter function will return as

soon as you reach a speed lower than

the stored speed.

Limited speed cannot be maintained
If driving up or down a steep gradient,

the system is unable to maintain the

limited speed: the memorised speed

flashes on the instrument panel and

a beep sounds at regular intervals to

inform you.

Varying the limit speed

The limit speed may be changed by re-

peatedly pressing:
– switch 2 (+) to increase speed;
– switch 3 (-) to reduce speed.

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”).

SPEED LIMITER

(2/3)

The speed limiter function is

in no way linked to the brak-

ing system.

2.28

SPEED LIMITER

(3/3)

Recalling the limit speed

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

called by pressing switch 4 ((R)).

Putting the function on

standby

The speed limiter function is suspended

when you press switch 5 (O). In this

case, the limit speed remains stored

and the message “MEMORISED” ac-

companied 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 put on

standby, pressing switch 2 (+) re-

activates the function without taking

into account the stored speed: it is

the speed at which the vehicle is

moving that is taken into account.

2.29

The cruise control function helps you to

maintain your driving speed at a speed

that you choose, called the cruising

speed.
This cruising speed may be set at any

speed above 20 mph (30 km/h).

This function is an addi-

tional driving aid. The func-

tion does not take the place

of the driver.

Therefore, it can under no circum-

stances replace the driver’s respon-

sibility 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 undulating or slip-

pery roads (black ice, aquaplan-

ing, gravel) and during bad weather

(fog, rain, side winds etc.).
There is a risk of accidents.

The cruise control function

is in no way linked to the

braking system.

Controls

1 Main “On/Off” switch.
2 Cruising speed activation, storage

and increase switch (+).

3 Decreasing cruising speed (-).
4 Activation with recall of saved cruis-

ing speed (R).

5 Switch the function to standby (with

cruising speed saved) (O).

CRUISE CONTROL

(1/4)

2.30

Driving

Once a cruising speed is stored and

the cruise control function is active,

you may lift your foot off the accelera-

tor pedal.

Please note that you must

keep your feet close to the

pedals in order to react in

an emergency.

Activating cruise control

At a steady speed (above 18 mph

(30 km/h approximately)) press switch 2

or (+): the function is activated and the

current speed is saved.
The cruising speed replaces the dashes

and the cruise control is confirmed by

the appearance of warning light 6 lit

green, as well as warning light 7.

Switching on

Press switch 1 side



Indicator light 7 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.

CRUISE CONTROL

(2/4)

2.31

CRUISE CONTROL

(3/4)

Exceeding the cruising speed

The cruising speed may be exceeded

at any time by depressing the accelera-

tor pedal. While it is being exceeded,

the cruising speed flashes on the in-

strument 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
When driving down a steep gradient,

the system is unable to maintain the

cruising speed: the stored speed will

flash on the instrument panel informa-

tion display to inform you of this situ-

ation.

Adjusting the cruising speed

The cruising speed may be changed by

pressing the following repeatedly:
– switch 2 (+) to increase speed;
– switch 3 (-) to decrease the speed.

The cruise control function

is in no way linked to the

braking system.

2.32

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 two in-
strument panel warning lights



and



go out to confirm that the function is

deactivated.

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 4 (R) if the vehicle speed is

above 20 mph (30 km/h).

When the stored speed is recalled, acti-

vation of the cruise control is confirmed
by the illumination of the



warning

light.
NB: if the speed previously stored is

much higher than the current speed,

the vehicle will accelerate more rapidly

to reach this threshold.

When the cruise control function is

put on standby, pressing 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 function on

standby

The function is set to standby if you:
–  use the switch 5 (O);
–  the brake pedal;
–  the clutch pedal;
In all three cases, the cruising speed

remains stored and the message

“MEMORISED” appears on the instru-

ment panel.
Standby is confirmed when indicator
light



goes out.

CRUISE CONTROL

(4/4)

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.

2.33

VEHICLE WITH OVERSPEED FUNCTION

The vehicle speed may be permanently

set at a fixed value depending on the

vehicle or on local legislation.
To adjust the value or activate/deacti-

vate the function, consult an approved

dealer.
In the event of statutory limits (depend-

ing on the vehicle), this function may

not be deactivated.
Label 1 attached to the dashboard

shows the speed limit.

Special case: if your vehicle is fitted

with the Cruise control/Speed limiter,

fully depressing the accelerator pedal

(beyond the kickdown point) will not

allow you to exceed the overspeed

function set speed (refer to the informa-

tion on the “Speed limiter” in Section 2).

In exceptional circumstances (e.g.

steep gradient), the overspeed

function speed may be exceeded

slightly as the function does not

affect the braking system.

The function does not take

the place of the driver.

Under no circumstances

should it replace observa-

tion of speed limits nor vigilance

and responsibility on the part of the

driver.

2.34

FAST IDLE SPEED

Press control 1, and the function will be

activated after a few seconds.

Modifying fast idle speed

To increase or reduce the speed, con-

tact an approved dealer.

Switching off the function

The function is interrupted when:
– you depress the clutch pedal and/or

accelerator pedal;

– the vehicle speed is above 0 mph;

– the

indicator light is lit up on

the instrument panel;

– the

indicator light is lit up on

the instrument panel;

– the

indicator light is lit up on

the instrument panel.

Special feature relating to the

Stop and Start function: activation

of the “Fast Idle Speed” function

stops the engine going into standby

(refer to the information on “Stop

and Start" in section 2).

2.35

Operating principle

Ultrasonic detectors, installed in the

rear bumper (depending on the vehi-

cle), measure the distance between the

vehicle and an obstacle whilst revers-

ing.

This measurement is indicated by

beeps which become more frequent the

closer you come to the obstacle, until

they become a continuous beep when

the vehicle is approximately 30 centi-

metres from the obstacle.

When reverse gear is selected, most

objects which are less than approxi-

mately 1.20 metres from the rear of the

vehicle are detected, a beep sounds

and, depending on the vehicle, the dis-

play 1 shows the area around the ve-

hicle.

PARKING DISTANCE CONTROL

(1/2)

This function is an additional aid that indicates the distance between the

vehicle and an obstacle whilst reversing, using sound signals.
Under no circumstances should it replace the driver’s care or responsibil-

ity whilst reversing.

The driver should always be ready for sudden incidents while driving: always

ensure that there are no small, narrow moving obstacles (such as a child, animal,

pushchair, bicycle, stone, post, etc.) in the blind spot when manoeuvring.

Note: make sure that the ultrasonic

sensors are not obscured (by dirt, mud,

snow, etc.).

An impact to the under-

side of the vehicle while

manoeuvring (e.g. strik-

ing a post, raised kerb or

other street furniture) may result in

damage to the vehicle (e.g. defor-

mation of an axle).
To avoid any risk of accident, have

your vehicle checked by an ap-

proved Dealer.

The parking distance control system

does not take into account towing and

load carrying systems etc.

2.36

Temporary deactivation of

the system

Press switch 2 to deactivate the system.
The indicator light built into the switch

lights up to remind you that the system

is deactivated.
Pressing the switch again will react-

ivate the system and switch off the in-

dicator light.
Depending on the vehicle, you can de-

activate the parking distance control

from the multimedia screen. Please

see the equipment instructions for fur-

ther information.

PARKING DISTANCE CONTROL

(2/2)

Adjusting the parking

distance control volume

Depending on the vehicle, certain set-

tings can be adjusted from the multime-

dia screen 1. Please see the equipment

instructions for further information.

The system is automatically reactivated

after the ignition is switched off and the

engine restarted.

Prolonged deactivation of the

system

You can deactivate the system perma-

nently by pressing and holding switch 2.
The warning light built into the switch

remains lit constantly.
The deactivated system can be re-

activated by pressing and holding the

switch again.

Operating faults

Depending on the vehicle, when the

system detects an operating fault, the

message “check parking distance con-

trol” appears on the instrument panel,

accompanied by the warning light

and a beep lasting approxi-

mately 5 seconds. Please contact an

authorised dealer.

2.37

REVERSING CAMERA

(1/2)

Operation

Moving into reverse gear, the camera 1

located on the tailgate or, depending

on the vehicle, on the rear hinged door,

provides a view of the area behind the

vehicle on the rear-view mirror 2 or, de-

pending on the vehicle, on the multi-

media display 3, accompanied by two

moving or fixed guide lines 4 and 5.

Note: make sure that the reversing

camera is not obscured (by dirt, mud,

snow, condensation, etc.).

Note: depending on the vehicle, you

can adjust certain settings from the

multimedia display 3. Refer to the

handbook for the equipment.

This function is an additional aid. It cannot, therefore, under any circum-

stances replace the vigilance or the responsibility of the driver.
The driver should always be ready for sudden incidents while driving:

always ensure that there are no small, narrow moving obstacles (such

as a child, animal, pushchair, bicycle, stone, post, etc.) in the blind spot when

manoeuvring.

2.38

REVERSING CAMERA

(2/2)

The screen shows a reverse image.
The frames are a representation

projected on a flat surface. This in-

formation is to not be taken into ac-

count when superimposed on a

vertical object or an object on the

ground.
Objects which appear on the edge

of the screen may be deformed.
In very bright light (snow, vehicle in

sunshine etc.), the camera vision

may be adversely affected.
If the rear doors are open or poorly

closed, the message “BOOT OPEN”

appears and, depending on the ve-

hicle, the camera display disap-

pears.

Dynamic gauge 4 (depending on the

vehicle)

This is shown in blue on the multimedia

display 3. It indicates the vehicle tra-

jectory according to the position of the

steering wheel.

Static guide line 5:

The fixed clearance gauge comprises

coloured markers A, B and C, indicat-

ing the distance behind the vehicle:
– A (red) approximately 30 centime-

tres from the vehicle;

– B (yellow) approximately 70 centi-

metres from the vehicle;

– C (green) approximately 150 centi-

metres from the vehicle.

This gauge remains fixed and indicates

the vehicle trajectory if the wheels are

in line with the vehicle.
This system is initially used with the aid

of several gauges (mobile for trajectory

and fixed for distance). When the red

zone is reached, use the bumper image

to stop accurately.
