Cruise control

This maintains a constant vehicle speed
programmed by the driver.
1."ON/OFF"
button: activation/deactivation of cruise control mode.
2."COAST SET"button: storing a driving speed then decreasing the cruising speed.
3."ACC RES"
button: increasing the cruising speed and recalling the stored speed.
4."CANCEL"
button: switching off the cruise control.

In order to be programmed or activated,
the vehicle speed must be higher than
25 mph (40 km/h) with at least second gear engaged.This detects obstacles
(person, vehicle,
tree, gate, ...) located behind the vehicle.
Th
e vehicle is fi tted with four sensors:
D. two side sensors.
E
. two central sensors.
Audible rear parking sensors

able and can be selected manually bythe driver to suit the circumstances:
A. Two wheel drive
(2WD),
B. Four wheel drive (4WD AUTO),
C. Four wheel drive (4WD LOCK).

ECO-DRIVING
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2emis-sions.
Optimise the use of your gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move off gen-tly, change up without waiting and drive by changing up quite soon. If your vehicle has the system, the gear shift indicator invites you to change up; it is displayed in the instrument panel, follow its instructions.
With an automatic or electronic gearbox, stay in Drive "D"
or Auto "A", according to the type of gearbox, without pressing the accelerator pedal heavily or sud-denly.
Drive smoothly
Maintain a safe distance between ve-hicles, use engine braking rather than the brake pedal, and press the accel-erator progressively. These practices contribute towards a reduction in fuel consumption and CO2 emissions and also helps reduce the background traf-22
fi c noise.
If your vehicle has cruise control, make use of the system at speeds above 25 mph (40 km/h) when the traffi c is fl owing well.



Control the use of your electrical equipment


Before moving off, if the passenger compartment is too warm, ventilate itby opening the windows and air ventsbefore using the air conditioning.
Above 30 mph (50 km/h), close thewindows and leave the air ventsopen.

Remember to make use of equipmentthat can help keep the temperaturein the passenger compartment down(sun roof and window blinds...).

Switch off the air conditioning, unlessit has automatic digital regulation, assoon as the desired temperature is at-tained.
Switch off the demisting and defrost-ing controls, if not automatic.
Switch off the heated seat as soon aspossible.


Switch off the headlamps and frontfoglamps when the level of light doesnot require their use.

Avoid running the engine before mov-ing off, particularly in winter; your ve-hicle will warm up much faster whiledriving.

As a passenger, if you avoid connect-ing your multimedia devices (fi lm, mu-sic, video game...), you will contributetowards limiting the consumption of electrical energy, and so of fuel.
Disconnect your portable devices be-fore leaving the vehicle.

together on the steering wheel.


1.
"ON/OFF"
button: activation / deac-
tivation of the cruise control mode.

2.
"COAST SET"
button: storing of a
driving speed and decreasing of the
cruising speed.

3.
"ACC RES"
button: increasing of
the cruising speed and recalling of
the stored speed.

4.
"CANCEL"
button: switching off of
the cruise control.
When you press button 1
, the "CRUISE"

indicator comes on in the instrument
panel.


Steering mounted controls Display on the instrument panel

The cruise control cannot, in any cir-
cumstances, take the place of the
need to comply with speed limits or
of the vigilance and responsibility of
the driver.
System which automatically maintains the
vehicle speed at the value programmed
by the driver, without any action on the
accelerator pedal.
The cruise control is switched on
man-
ually: the vehicle speed must be 25 mph
(40 km/h) minimum and second gear
must be engaged in the case of a man-
ual gearbox.
The cruise control is switched off
man-
ually, by an action on the brake or clutch
pedal or if the ASC system is triggered.
The programmed speed can be ex-
ceeded temporarily by pressing the ac-
celerator pedal.
To return to the programmed speed,
simply release the accelerator pedal.
Switching off the ignition cancels any
programmed speed value.

When the cruise control is in
operation, pay attention if you
press and hold one of the pro-
grammed speed adjustment buttons:
this can result in a very rapid change
in the speed of your vehicle.
Do not use the cruise control on slip-
pery roads or in heavy traffi c.

On a steep descent, the cruise control will
not be able to prevent the vehicle from
exceeding the programmed speed.
To prevent the mat from becoming
caught under the pedals:


- ensure that the mat is positioned
correctly,

- never fi t one mat on top of another.


To deactivate the cruise control:

below 20 mph (35 km/h).

)

When the active stability control system
(ASC) comes into operation.

Reactivating the function

When the cruise control has been de-
activated, you can return to the stored
speed by pressing button 3 "ACC RES"

when you reach a minimum speed of
25 mph (40 km/h).
Decreasing the programmed
speed


)
Using button 2 "COAST SET"
:


- successive presses decrease the
speed in steps of approximately
1 mph (1.6 km/h).

- a maintained press of this button
decreases the speed progressively.
Once the speed required has been
reached, release the button, the new
speed is stored.


)
Using the brake pedal:


- brake to deactivate the cruise control,
then press button 2 "COAST SET"
.
Release to store the new speed.



Temporary acceleration/deceleration
Increasing the programmed
speed


)
Using button 3 "ACC RES"
:


- successive presses increase the
speed in steps of approximately
1 mph (1.6 km/h).

- a maintained press of this button
increases the programmed speed
progressively.
Once the speed required has been
reached, release the button, the new
speed is stored.


)
Using the accelerator pedal:


- accelerate to reach the speed re-
quired, then press button 2 "COAST
SET"
. Release the button to store
the new speed.

Temporary acceleration
