Deactivating the cruise
control
The cruise control is deactivated by
the following actions:
- pressing cruise control button 4
"Cancel",
- pressing the brake pedal,
- pressing the clutch pedal on a vehi- cle itted with a manual gearbox,
- selecting a gear which is not au- thorised on a vehicle itted with an
automatic gearbox.
The cruise control is also deactivated
in the following circumstances:
- when the vehicle speed falls below 22 mph (35 km/h),
- when the ESP is activated.
End of cruise control mode
F Place the dial in the "Off" position.
Note: after placing the dial 1 in the
"Off" position or after switching off
the engine, it is necessary to repeat
the "First activation" stage in order to
activate the cruise control. When the cruise control is selected
and a fault is present, a warning
light comes on, an audible signal is
heard and a message appears on
the multifunction display. Contact a
PEUGEOT dealer to have the sys-
tem checked.
Reactivating the cruise
control
If the conditions necessary for activa-
tion are met (see § First activation),
the cruise control can be reactivated:
- by pressing button
4 "Cancel" to
regain the cruising speed stored,
- by pressing button 2 "set-" or 3
"set+" to store the current speed as
the new cruising speed.
Display on the instrument
panel
When the dial is in the "ON" position,
the cruise control symbol is displayed
on the instrument panel associated
with a description "OFF" indicating
that the speed reference value has
not yet been entered.
To the right of the symbol, dashes
indicate that a irst activation has not
yet taken place.
When the irst activation takes place,
the description "OFF" disappears
and the dashes are replaced by the
display of the cruising speed stored.
When the driver exceeds the cruising
speed, it lashes on the instrument
panel.
When the cruise control is deac-
tivated, the description "OFF" ap-
pears; the cruising speed stored is
still displayed.
When the cruise control is reacti-
vated, lashing of the cruising speed
for a few seconds indicates that the
activation conditions have not been
met. On a steep descent, the
cruise control will not be able
to prevent the vehicle from
exceeding the programmed
speed.
The cruise control cannot, in any
circumstances, replace the need to
respect the speed limits, nor can it
replace the need for vigilance and re-
sponsibility on the part of the driver.

vehicle speed must be greater than
25 mph (40 km/h) with at least fourth
gear engaged (second gear for the
automatic gearbox), with the engine
running . Selecting the function
F
Place switch 1 in the CRUISE
position. The cruise control is
not yet active and no speed has
been memorised. The display in-
dicates:
Switching the function off
F Place switch 1 in position 0 or

CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED
LIMITER
Limiter function
This prevents the vehicle speed
exceeding the speed programmed
by the driver (minimum speed of
18 mph (30 km/h)).
The operations must be carried
out with the engine running.Selecting the function
F
Place switch 1 in the LIMIT posi-
tion. The limiter is not yet active.
By default the display indicates:
Switching the function off
F Place switch 1 in position 0 or
CRUISE or switch off the ignition
to switch the system off. The last
speed programmed remains in
the memory.
Memorising a speed
A speed can be memorised without
activation of the limiter.
Pressing buttons 2 and 3 decreases
or increases the speed.
Short press: +/- 1 mph (1 km/h)
Long press: +/- 5 mph (5 km/h)
Maintained press: continuous in-
crease or decrease of the value in
steps of 5 mph (5 km/h). Activation/deactivation of the
limiter
Pressing button
4 activates the lim-
iter, pressing this button again deac-
tivates it.
When the limiter is active, the display
indicates (e.g. at 70 mph (110 km/h)):
On a steep descent or on
sharp acceleration, the
speed limiter, which does not
act on the brakes, will not be
able to prevent the vehicle from ex-
ceeding the programmed speed.
The speed limiter cannot, in any
circumstances, replace the need to
respect the speed limits, nor can it
replace the need for vigilance and re-
sponsibility on the part of the driver.

Exceeding the programmed
speed
Additional pressing of the accelera-
tor to exceed the programmed speed
will have no effect unless the pedal is
pressed irmly (passing the point of
resistance ).
The limiter is deactivated temporarily
and displays the programmed speed
(e.g. at 70 mph (110 km/h)):
If a mat is used which is not
recommended by PEUGEOT,
there is a risk that it may slide
under the accelerator pedal
and prevent pressing of the pedal
past the point of resistance.
In this case, it will only be possible to
exit from the speed limiter function by
operating the steering wheel stalk.
Operating check
In the event of a limiter malfunction,
the memorised speed is erased, the
dashes lash for a few seconds:
Note: the speed also lashes when
the speed limiter cannot prevent
the vehicle from exceeding the pro-
grammed speed (on a steep descent
or in the event of sharp acceleration).
To re-activate the limiter, release the
accelerator to slow down to a speed
below the programmed speed. A warning light comes on, an audible
signal is heard and a message ap-
pears on the multifunction display.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have
the system checked.

REAR PARKING ASSISTANCE
This system consists of four proximity
sensors, located in the rear bumper.
This detects any obstacle (person,
cyclist, vehicle, tree, gate, etc.) be-
hind the vehicle. Nevertheless, it
cannot detect obstacles located just
below the bumper.
Warning: an object, such as a stake,
a roadworks cone or any other simi-
lar object detected at the beginning
of the manoeuvre may no longer be
detected during the manoeuvre.
To make manoeuvres in reverse gear
easier, adjust your mirrors in accord-
ance with the "Automatic tilting of the
mirrors in reverse gear" function.
Maintenance: ensure that the sen-
sors are not covered with mud, frost
or snow.
Deactivation
If there is an operating fault,
on changing to reverse gear
a warning light on the instru-
ment panel, an audible signal
and a message on the multifunction
display indicate that there is a sys-
tem malfunction.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
Your vehicle's rear speakers emit an
audible signal:
- on the right if an obstacle is
detected on the right,
- on the left if an obstacle is detected on the left,
- on the right and left if an obstacle is detected in the centre.
When the distance between the rear
of the vehicle and the obstacle is less
than approximately twenty-ive centi-
metres, the audible signal becomes
continuous.Activation
The system is activated as soon as
reverse gear is engaged; an audible
bleep shows that it is active.
The proximity information is given by
an audible signal, which becomes
more rapid as the vehicle approach-
es the obstacle.Switching the system off
F Change to neutral, the system is
again inactive. F
Press the switch on the
centre console.
The indicator light on the switch
comes on and the system becomes
completely inactive.

TYRE UNDER-INFLATION
DETECTION
Sensors check the tyre pressure dur-
ing driving and trigger a warning in
the event of malfunction.
Flat tyreInstrument panel
warning light.
Instrument panel

light.
This is accompanied by the audible
signal and the message on the multi-
function display locating the wheel
concerned.
If this warning light comes on, have
the tyre pressure checked as soon
as possible.
Puncture
This warning light, accompanied by
the audible signal and the message on
the multi-function display locating the
wheel concerned, is followed by illumi-
nation of the 'STOP' warning light. Stop immediately, avoiding any sud-
den movement of the steering wheel
and the brakes.
Change the damaged wheel (punc-
tured or very delated tyre), and have
the tyre pressure checked as soon
as possible.
Sensor(s) not detected or faulty
Instrument panel
warning light.
This is accompa-
nied by the mesage
on the multifunction display which indi-
cates that under-inlation detection is
absent from one (or several) wheel(s)
or that there is a fault in the system.
Instrument panel
display warning
light.
This is accom-
panied by the audible signal and
the message on the multi-function
display which indicates that under-
inlation detection is absent from one
(or several) wheel(s) or that there is
a fault in the system.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to re-
place the faulty sensor(s).
Note: this message is also displayed
when one of the wheels is away from
the vehicle (being repaired) or when
one or more wheels without a sensor
are itted. All repairs and changing of
tyres on a wheel itted with
this system must be carried
out by a PEUGEOT dealer.
If, when changing a tyre, you
install a wheel which is not
detected by your vehicle, you must
have the system reinitialised by a
PEUGEOT dealer.
The tyre under-inlation detection
system is an aid to driving which
does not replace the need for the
driver to be vigilant or to drive re-
sponsibly.
This system does not eliminate
the need to have the tyre pressure
checked regularly (see manufactur-
er's label on the door pillar) to ensure
that the optimum dynamic perform-
ance of the vehicle is maintained and
prevent premature wear of the tyres,
particularly in arduous driving condi-
tions (heavy load, high speed).
The tyre pressures must be checked
cold, at least once a month. Remem-
ber to check the pressure of the spare
wheel.
The tyre under-inlation detection
system may experience temporary
interference due to radioelectric
emissions on a frequency close to
that used by the system.
This is accompanied by the message
on the multifunction display locating
the wheel concerned.
