tains the vehicle speed programmed
by the driver, without any action on

at least 25 mph (40 km/h) and you
must be in at least:
- 4th gear for manual gearboxes,

control mode " CRUISE ".
Steering mounted controls
The cruise control switches are lo-
cated on the left-hand side of the
steering wheel. The selection is confi rmed by the
display of the function in zone
A of
the instrument panel.
When the function is selected, no
cruising speed has yet been
memorised . Once the desired speed has been
reached using the accelerator, press
button
1 or button 2 . The cruising
speed is then memorised and cruise
control is activated. The cruising
speed is displayed in zone A of the
instrument panel, and "ON" is dis-
played.
Adjustment of the memorised
speed while cruise control is
in operation
You can adjust the memorised speed, displayed in zone A , by pressing:
- Button 1 to increase the speed.
- Button 2 to reduce the speed.
Successive presses will modify the
cruise speed in steps of 1 mph and a
continuous press in steps of 5 mph.
You can then release the accelera-
tor pedal. The vehicle will automati-
cally keep to the speed chosen.
The vehicle speed may vary slightly
from that memorised.
If during cruise control the system
cannot keep to the cruise speed
(e.g. on a steep descent), then the
speed fl ashes. If necessary, brake to
curb your speed.
