CRUISE CONTROL "CRUISE"
"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, unless a steep
gradient makes this impossible.
In order for it to be programmed or
activated, the vehicle speed must be greater
than 25 mph (40 km/h) with at least 4th gear
engaged. If the vehicle is fitted with a speed limiter
and cruise control (according to the country
in which the vehicle is sold and the engine),
these functions cannot be activated at the
same time. Function selected,
displaying of the "Cruise
Control” symbol.
Function deactivated,

(example at
107 km/h).
Function activated

(e.g. 118 km/h),

is displayed flashing.

This cruise control shows the function
selection status on the instrument panel and

Selecting the function
Place the switch in the CRUISE 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.
Press the SET - or
SET + button.
This programmes/activates the reference
speed and the vehicle will maintain this
speed.
Temporary
exceeding of the speed
It is possible to accelerate and drive
momentarily at a speed greater than the
programmed speed. The value programmed
flashes.
When the accelerator pedal is released, the
vehicle will return to the programmed speed.
Reactivation
Following deactivation of the cruise
control, press this button.
Your vehicle will return to the last
programmed speed.
Alternatively, you can repeat the "first
activation" procedure.
Deactivation (off)
Press this button or the
brake or clutch pedal. Steering wheel controls

Switching the function off
Place the dial in position 0 or switch off
the ignition to switch everything off.
Cancelling the programmed
reference speed
When the vehicle becomes stationary, after
switching off the ignition, the system no
longer memorises a speed.
Good practice
When changing the programmed reference
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.
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.
To avoid any jamming under the pedals:
- ensure that the mat is positioned correctly,
- never place one mat on top of another.
Changing the
programmed speed
There are two methods of
memorising a speed higher
than the previous one:
Without using the accelerator:
press the Set + button.
A brief press increases the speed by
1 mph (km/h).
A maintained press increases the speed in
steps of 5 mph (km/h).
Using the accelerator:
exceed the memorised speed until the
speed required is reached,
press the Set + or Set - button.
To memorise a speed lower than the
previous one:
press the Set - button.
A brief press decreases the speed by
1 mph (km/h).
A maintained press decreases the speed
in steps of 5 mph (km/h).
Operating fault
The programmed speed is cleared then
replaced by three dashes.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have the
system checked.

SPEED LIMITER "LIMIT"
"This is the selected speed which the driver does
not wish to exceed". This selection is made with
the engine running while stationary or with the
vehicle moving. The minimum speed which can
be programmed is 20 mph (30 km/h).
The speed of the vehicle responds to the
pressure of the driver’s foot as far as the
accelerator pedal point of resistance which
indicates that the programmed speed has been
reached.
However, pressing the pedal beyond this point of
resistance to the floor permits exceeding of the
programmed speed. To resume use of the limiter, simply reduce
the pressure on the accelerator pedal
gradually and return to a speed below that
programmed.
If the vehicle is fitted with a speed limiter
and cruise control (according to the country
in which the vehicle is sold and the engine),
these functions cannot be activated at the
same time.
The operating actions may be carried out
when stationary, with the engine running,
or with the vehicle moving. Function selected,
displaying of the "Speed
Limiter" symbol.
Function deactivated,

Selecting the function
Place the dial in the LIMIT position.
The limiter is selected but is not yet active.
The display indicates the last programmed
speed.
Programming a speed
A speed can be programmed without
activating the limiter but with the engine
running.
To memorise a speed higher than the previous
one:
 press the Set + button.
A brief press increases the speed by
1 mph (km/h).
A maintained press increases the speed in steps of 5 mph (km/h).
To memorise a speed lower than the previous
one: press the Set - button.
A brief press decreases the speed by 1 mph (km/h).
A maintained press decreases the speed in steps of 5 mph (km/h).
Activation/Deactivation (off)
Pressing this button once activates the
limiter, pressing the button again deactivates
it (OFF).

Switching the function off
Place dial in position 0 or switch off the
ignition to switch the system off. The
last programmed speed remains in the
memory.
Exceeding the programmed speed
Pressing the accelerator pedal in order to
exceed the programmed speed will have
no effect unless you press the pedal firmly
beyond the point of resistance .
The limiter is deactivated temporarily and
the programmed speed flashes.
To return to the limiter function, reduce your
speed to below the programmed speed.
Flashing of the speed
The speed flashes: following forcing of the accelerator point of
resistance,
 when the limiter cannot prevent an
increase in the vehicle speed due to the
profile of the road or on a steep descent,
 in the event of sharp acceleration. Good practice
In any event, the speed limiter cannot
replace the need to observe speed limits,
nor can it replace the need for vigilance and
responsibility on the part of the driver.
Always pay attention to the profile of the
road and take care on sharp acceleration.
To avoid any jamming under the pedals:
- ensure that the mat is positioned correctly,
- never place one mat on top of another.
Operating fault
The programmed speed is cleared then
replaced by three dashes.

If fitted on your vehicle, pressing this button,
with the engine running, activates the rapid
demisting - de-icing of the rear screen and
mirrors.
This function switches off:
- when the button is pressed,
- when the engine is switched off,
- automatically to prevent excessive energy consumption. Automatic air conditioning: visibility

The comfort programme (AUTO) may not
be sufficient to quickly demist or de-ice the
windows (humidity, several passengers, ice).
In this case, select the visibility programme.

CORRECT USE OF THE AIR
CONDITIONING
In all seasons, if fitted on your vehicle, the
air conditioning should only be used with
the windows closed. However, if the interior
temperature remains high after a prolonged
period parked in the sun, do not hesitate to
ventilate the passenger compartment for a
few minutes.
For even air distribution, ensure that the
exterior air intake grille located at the base
of the windscreen is not obstructed and that
the side and central vents, the air outlets on
the floor and the air extractor at the rear are
open.
The air conditioning is useful in all seasons
as it eliminates condensation and air
humidity. VENTS
"Leave them open"
For optimum distribution and diffusion of hot
or cool air in the passenger compartment,
there are 4 adjustable central and side vents
which can be directed sideways (right or
left) towards the top of the body. For your
comfort while driving, do not close them,
direct the flow of air towards the windows
instead.
The air vents directed towards the floor of
the vehicle complete the equipment.
Operate the air conditioning system for
5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month,
to keep it in perfect working order.
It is normal that the condensation created by
the air conditioning system results in a flow
of water which may form a puddle under the
vehicle when parked.
If the system does not produce cold air,
do not use it and contact your PEUGEOT
dealer.
Passenger compartment filter, pollen
filter
Ensure that this filter is in good condition
and have all of the filter elements replaced
regularly.
Refer to the "Levels and checks" section of
chapter 7.
We recommend the use of a combined
passenger compartment filter. By means of
its second special active filter, it contributes
to the purification of the air breathed by
the occupants and to the cleanness of
the passenger compartment (reduction of
allergic symptoms, unpleasant odours and
greasy deposits).
The pollen filter permits continuous and
effective filtering of dust.
