HANDBRAKE
Applying
When parking, pull the handbrake to
immobilise your vehicle.Illumination of this warning
light and of the STOP warn-
ing light, accompanied by
an audible signal (while the
vehicle is moving), indicates that the
handbrake is still applied or has not
been released fully.
ANTI-LOCK BRAKING
SYSTEM (ABS) AND THE
ELECTRONIC BRAKE FORCE
DISTRIBUTION (EBFD)
The ABS, in conjunction with the
electronic brake force distribution,
increases the stability and mano-
evrability of your vehicle on braking,
in particular on poor or slippery road
surfaces.
Note: when changing wheels (tyres
and rims), make sure that these are
approved.
The anti-lock braking system comes
into operation automatically when
there is a risk of wheel lock.
When this warning light
comes on, connected to the
STOP and ABS warning
lights, it indicates that there
is a malfunction of the electronic
brake force distribution, which can
cause a loss of control of the vehicle
when braking.
Stop immediately.
In both cases, consult a PEUGEOT
dealer. When this warning light
comes on, accompanied by a
buzzer, it indicates that there
is a malfunction of the ABS,
which can cause a loss of control of
the vehicle when braking. Normal operation of the ABS may
make itself felt by slight vibrations
of the brake pedal.
In emergency braking, press
very firmly without releasing the
pressure.
Releasing
Pull the handle and press the button
to release the handbrake.

CRUISE CONTROL
Cruise control enables the vehicle
to maintain a steady speed pro-
grammed by the driver.
In order for it to be memorised, the
vehicle speed must be greater than
25 mph (40 km/h), and fourth gear at
least must be engaged.
Operation
 Place switch 1 in the ON position.
A speed can be memorised.
 Place switch 1 in the OFF position
to cancel.
Changing a memorised speed
To memorise a speed higher than the
previous one:
 press button 3;
 release it when you have reached
the required speed.
To memorise a speed lower than the
previous one:
 press button 2;
 release it when you have reached
the required speed.
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
case, take the place of observance of
the speed restrictions, or of the vigi-
lance or responsibility of the driver.
Do not use the cruise control on slip-
pery roads or in heavy traffic.
To prevent the mat from becoming
caught under the pedals:
- ensure that the mat is positioned correctly,
- never fit one mat on top of another.
Memorising a speed
As soon as you reach the chosen
speed, press button 2 or 3. This
memorises the speed.
Note: It is possible to accelerate and
drive momentarily at a speed greater
than the memorised speed. When
the accelerator pedal is released, the
vehicle will return to the memorised
speed.
Cancelling the memorised
speed
If you wish to cancel the memorised
speed:
 press button 4 or the brake or
clutch pedal.
Recalling the memorised
speed
After cancellation, press button 4.
Your vehicle will return to the last
memorised speed.
Cancelling the cruise control
 Place switch 1 in the OFF position
or switch off the ignition.

78 -Driving
CRUISE CONTROL
The cruise control has a display on
the instrument panel to indicate the
programmed reference speed.
It enables the vehicle to maintain the
reference speed programmed by the
driver.
In order for it to be programmed or
activated, the vehicle speed must be
greater than 25 mph (40 km/h) with
at least fourth gear engaged.
If the vehicle is fitted with a speed
limiter and cruise control, these func-
tions cannot be activated at the same
time.The status of the function is displayed
on the instrument panel in accord-
ance with the following sequences:
Function selected,
displaying of the "Cruise
Control" symbol.
Function deactivated,
OFF (example at 66 mph
(107 km/h)).
Function activated
(example at 66 mph
(107 km/h)).
Vehicle speed above (e.g.
73 mph (118 km/h)),
the programmed speed is
displayed flashing.
Operating fault detected,
OFF - the dashes flash.
Selecting the function
 Place the switch in the CRUISE
position. The cruise control is se-
lected 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 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 re-
leased, the vehicle will return to the
programmed speed.

79
-Driving
When changing the programmed ref-
erence speed by means of a main-
tained press, pay attention as the
speed can increase or decrease rap-
idly.
Do not use the cruise control on slip-
pery roads or in heavy traffic.
In the event of a steep slope, the
cruise control cannot prevent the
vehicle from exceeding the pro-
grammed speed.
In any event, the cruise control can-
not 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 prevent the mat from becoming
trapped under the pedals:
- ensure that the mat is positioned
correctly,
- never fit one mat on top of another.
Deactivation (off)

Press this button or the brake or
clutch pedal.
Changing the programmed
reference speed
When the speed is displayed:
 press SET + button to increase it.
 press the SET - button to de-
crease it.
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. Switching the function off

Place the dial in position 0 or
switch off the ignition to switch
everything off.
Operating fault
In the event of a cruise control mal-
function, a message is displayed on
the multifunction display accompa-
nied by an audible signal.
The programmed speed is cleared
and the dashes flash for a few sec-
onds.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have
the system checked.
Cancelling the programmed
reference speed
When the vehicle becomes station-
ary, after switching off the ignition,
the system no longer memorises a
speed.

76 -Driving
SPEED LIMITER
This limiter indicates the status of
selection of the function on the in-
strument panel and displays the
programmed speed. The minimum
speed which can be programmed is
at least 18 mph (30 km/h).
It prevents exceeding of the speed
programmed by the driver, this func-
tion remains active regardless of any
action on the brake or clutch ped-
als. On the other hand, pressing the
accelerator pedal to the point of re-
sistance does not have any effect.
If the driver wishes to exceed the
programmed limit, he must force the
accelerator pedal travel beyond this
point of resistance.
Vehicles which are fitted with the limiter
function are also fitted with the cruise
control function but these two functions
cannot be activated at the same time.
The operating actions must be
carried out when stationary, with
the engine running, orwith the
vehicle moving.The status of the function is displayed
on the instrument panel in accordance
with the following sequences:
Function selected,
displaying of the "Speed
Limiter" symbol.
Function deactivated,
last programmed speed - OFF
(example at 66 mph (107 km/h)).
Function activated
(example at 66 mph
(107 km/h)).
Vehicle speed above 66 mph
(107 km/h),
the programmed speed is
displayed flashing.
Operating fault detected,
OFF - the dashes flash.
Selecting the function
 Place the dial in the LIMIT posi-
tion. The limiter is selected but
is not yet active. The display in-
dicates dashes or the last pro-
grammed speed. Programming a speed
A speed can be programmed without
activating the limiter but with the en-
gine running.

A brief or extended press of the
SET - button decreases the speed.
 A brief or extended press of
the SET + button increases the
speed.
Activation/deactivation (off)
When you have programmed your
speed, pressing this button once acti-
vates the limiter and the programmed
speed is displayed, pressing the but-
ton again deactivates it (OFF).
