Memorising
This function allows speeds to be saved, which can then be offered to set the two systems: the speed limiter (to limit the speed of the vehicle) or the c
ruise   control   (for   a   vehicle   cruising   speed).
You
  can   memorise   up   to   six   speed   settings   for   each   of   the   two   systems.   By   default,   some   speed   settings   are   already   memorised.

Speed limit recognition
This system allows the speed limit detected by 
the camera to be displayed in the instrument 
panel.
Specific speed limits, such as those for heavy 
goods
  vehicles,   are   not   displayed.
The display of the speed limit in the instrument 
panel
  is   updated   as   you   pass   a   speed   limit   sign  
i
ntended   for   cars   (light   vehicles).
The units for the speed limits (mph or 
km/h)
  depend   on   the   country   you   are  
d
riving   in.
It
  should   be   taken   into   account   so   that  
y
ou   observe   the   speed   limit.
For the system to operate correctly 
when
  you   change   country,   the   units   for  
s
peed in the instrument panel must be 
those
  for   the   country   you   are   driving   in. The
  automatic   reading   of   road   signs   is   a  
d
riving   assistance   system   and   does   not  
a
lways   display   speed   limits   correctly.
The
  speed   limit   signs   present   on   the  
r
oad   always   take   priority   over   the  
d
isplay   by   the   system.
The system cannot in any 
circumstances replace the need for 
vigilance
  on   the   part   of   the   driver.
The
  driver   must   observe   the   driving  
r
egulations   and   must   adapt   the   speed  
o
f the vehicle to suit the weather and 
traffic.
It is possible for the system to not 
display the speed limit if it does not 
detect
  a   speed   limit   sign   within   a   preset  
p
eriod.
The
  system   is   designed   to   detect   signs  
t
hat conform to the Vienna Convention 
on
  road   signs.
To maintain correct operation of the 
system:
  regularly   clean   the   area   in   front  
o
f   the   camera.Principles
Using a camera at the top of the windscreen, this system detects and reads speed limit and 
end
  of   speed   limit   signs.
The
  system   also   takes   account   of   information  
o
n   speed   limits   from   the   navigation   system  
ma
pping.

Cruise control - "CRUISE"
System which automatically maintains the speed of the vehicle at the value programmed by the driver, without any action on the accelerator pedal.
The cruise control system cannot, in any circumstances, replace the need to observe speed limits, nor can it replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
Y ou   are   advised   to   keep   your   feet   near   the   pedals   at   all   times.
Switching on  the cruise control requires a 
minimum   vehicle   speed   of   25   mph   (40   km/h).
