SPEED LIMITER
System which prevents the vehi-
cle from exceeding the speed pro-
grammed by the driver.
Once the limit speed has been
reached, the accelerator pedal no
longer has any effect.
The speed limiter is switched
on manually: a speed of at least
30 km/h (around 20 mph) must be
programmed.
The speed limiter controls are locat-
ed on the left-hand side of the steer-
ing wheel. The programmed information is
grouped together in zone
A of the
instrument panel display.
Steering wheel controls Displays on the instrument
panel
Programming
Rotate the control
1 to the "LIM" po-
sition. With the engine running, you can
adjust the memorised maximum
speed, by means of short or long
presses on:

 button 4 to increase the memo-
rised maximum speed,

 button 2 to decrease the memo-
rised maximum speed.
Successive presses will modify the
maximum speed in steps of 1 mph
and a sustained press in steps of
3 mph.
Activation
When the desired maximum speed
is displayed, press button 3 so that
the limitation is activated.
On selection of the
function, the previous
memorised speed and
the information "OFF"
are displayed on the
instrument panel. The information
"OFF"
then disappears from
the instrument panel
display.
While the function is active, press-
ing the accelerator pedal will not en-
able the programmed speed to be
exceeded, except if you press the
pedal hard down to beyond the end-
of-travel switch.
The speed of your vehicle may vary
slightly in relation to that memo-
rised.
The speed limiter cannot, in any circum-
stances, take the place of the observ-
ance of speed limits or of the vigilance
and responsibility of the driver.

CRUISE CONTROL
System which automatically main-
tains the vehicle speed programmed
by the driver, without any action on
the accelerator pedal.
The cruise control is switched on
manually: the vehicle speed must be
at least 25 mph (approx. 40 km/h)
and you must engage:
- fourth gear on a manual gearbox,
- second gear, in sequential mode, on an electronic gearbox or au-
tomatic gearbox,
- position A on an electronic gear-
box or D on an automatic gearbox.

PNEUMATIC SUSPENSION

Grand C4
Picasso
C4 Picasso
The rear pneumatic suspension en-
hances driving comfort by maintain-
ing a constant body height whatever
the vehicle load. Operation
- If there is an increase in vehi-
cle load, a sinking of the rear of
the vehicle is detected and the
pneumatic springs infl ate in or-
der to compensate for the extra
weight.
- If there is a decrease in load, a rising of the rear of the vehicle is
detected and so the pneumatic
springs defl ate to return the ve-
hicle to its nominal height.
- If the vehicle has been unused for a long period, the pneumatic
springs may infl ate if necessary
when you unlock or open a door,
so as to return the vehicle to its
nominal height.
If you do not reactivate the system
manually, the automatic correction
will be activated as soon as the ve-
hicle starts to move. During the cor-
rection, the service warning lamp
lights up and a message on the
screen reminds you not to exceed
10 km/h (6 mph).
The automatic correction does not
function if the doors or the boot are
open.
The automatic correction operates
even if your vehicle is in power
economy mode. Activation/Deactivation
The automatic correction can be de-
activated:

 press on the button B for approx-
imately two seconds,

 release the button when you
hear a beep. Deactivation is con-
fi rmed by the lighting of the indi-
cator lamp on the button B .

In the event of the system mal-
functioning, alert messages,
always in association with the
service warning lamp, will dis-
play in the instrument panel .
Consult a CITROËN dealer.
It is essential that you should deac-
tivate the system in the following in-
stances:
- working under the vehicle,
- changing a wheel,
- transporting the vehicle on a
truck or on a boot.
To reactivate the automatic correc-
tion:

 press again on the button B for
approximately two seconds,

 release the button when you hear
a beep. Activation is confi rmed
by the extinction of the indicator
lamp on the button B .

Taking out the wheel

 Move the third-row seat, right-
hand side (7 seater model).

 Retrieve the extension that is
attached to the rear of the seat
well.

 Engage the extension on the
pinion, located under the carpet
in the seat well.

 Using the wheel brace 4 on the
extension to turn the pinion
clockwise , release the cable
to lower the spare wheel to the
ground.

 Remove the wheel from under
the vehicle, disengaging the
linking plate in the centre of the
wheel.
The pinion to release the spare wheel
is located under the boot carpet, on
the right hand side in the wheel well
for the Grand C4 Picasso and on the
left hand side for the C4 Picasso. Putting the wheel back in place

 It is essential to direct the valve
upwards.

 Pass the linking plate through
the centre of the wheel (fi rst re-
moving the central trim on cer-
tain alloy wheels).

 Turn the pinion anti-clockwise
to draw in the cable. First the pin-
ion will turn idly, then the cable
will tighten to raise the wheel.
Check that the wheel is tight against the vehicle fl oor and
not interfering with other nearby
components (e.g. the exhaust).

 Stow the tools.
With the damaged wheel
now under the vehicle fl oor,
the vehicle has reduced
ground clearance, so take extra
care when reversing or driving on
uneven surfaces, including kerbs.
Retrieval of the spare wheel and
stowage of the affected road wheel
are operations that should be done
with the vehicle supported on its
wheels, not by the jack.
