CRUISE CONTROL
"This is the speed at which the driver wishes
to drive".
This aid to driving in free-flowing traffic
enables the vehicle to maintain the speed
programmed by the driver, without use of the
accelerator pedal.
In order for it to be programmed or
activated, the vehicle speed must be greater
than 18 mph (30 km/h) with at least second
gear engaged on the manual gearbox. Selecting the function
- Place the ring in the

ON position. The cruise
control is selected but
is not yet active and
no speed has been
programmed. First activation/
Programming a speed
- Reach the chosen
speed by pressing the
accelerator.
- Move the control up (+) for at least one second then release it.
This programmes the reference speed. You
can release the accelerator pedal, and the
vehicle will maintain this speed.
Temporarily exceeding
of the speed
It is possible to accelerate
and drive momentarily at
a speed greater than the
programmed speed (for
example to overtake another vehicle).
When the accelerator pedal is released, the
vehicle will return to the programmed speed.
Deactivation
- Press the brake or clutch pedal.
The cruise control is also deactivated if the
ABS or ESP system is invoked.

Reactivation
- Press the accelerator pedal until a speed close
to the programmed
speed.
Changing the programmed speed
There are two methods of memorising a
speed higher than the previous one: Switching the function off
- Place the ring in the

OFF position or switch
off the ignition to switch
everything off.
Cancelling the programmed speed
When the vehicle becomes stationary, after
switching off the ignition, the system no
longer memorises a speed.
Operating fault
if the system does not operate correctly, turn
the ring to the OFF position and contact a
CITROËN dealer. Good practice
When changing the programmed speed by
means of a maintained press, pay attention
as the speed can increase or decrease
rapidly.
Do not use the cruise control on slippery
roads or in heavy traffic.
Never engage neutral while the system is
operating.
In the event of a steep slope, the cruise
control cannot prevent the vehicle from
exceeding the programmed speed.
In any event, the cruise control cannot
replace the need to observe the speed
limits, nor can it replace the need for
vigilance and responsibility on the part of the
driver.
It is advisable to leave your feet near the
pedals.
To avoid any jamming under the pedals:
- ensure that the mat and its fixings on the
floor are positioned correctly,
- never place one mat on top of another.
- Engage the gear selected when
programming the speed.
- Press the button on the end of the control.
Your vehicle will return to the last
programmed speed.
Without using the
accelerator:
- move the control up (+). Using the accelerator:
- exceed the memorised speed until the
speed required is reached,
- move the control up (+) for at least one second, then release it.
To memorise a speed lower
than the previous one:
- move the control down (-); the new speed
will be memorised
automatically.
A brief press decreases the speed by 1 mph
(km/h).
A maintained press decreases the speed
gradually.
Each brief press increases the speed by
1 mph (km/h).
A maintained press increases the speed
gradually.
