Peugeot RCZ 2014 Owner's Manual - RHD (UK, Australia)

6/
DRIVING
In the event of a problem on one of the tyres, the symbol or the
message appears, according to equipment, to identify it.
 Reduce speed, avoid sudden steering movements or harsh brake applications.
 Stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
 In the event of a puncture, use the temporary puncture repair kit or the spare wheel (according to equipment),
or
 if you have a compressor, the one in the temporary puncture repair kit for example, check the four tyre pressures when cold,
or
 if it is not possible to check the tyre pressures at the time, drive carefully at reduced speed.
UNDER-INFLATION ALERT
The alert is given by the fi xed illumination of this warning
lamp, accompanied by an audible signal, and depending on
equipment, the display of a message.
The loss of pressure detected does not always lead to visible
deformation of the tyre. Do not rely on just a visual check.
The alert is maintained until the tyre or tyres concerned is reinfl ated,
repaired or replaced.
The spare wheel (space-saver type or a steel rim) does not have a
sensor. The fl ashing and then fi xed illumination of the
under-infl ation warning lamp accompanied by the
illumination of the "service" warning lamp indicates a
fault with the system.
In this case, monitoring of the tyre pressures is not assured.
This alert is also displayed when one or more wheels is not fi tted
with a sensor (for example, a space-saver or steel spare wheel).
Go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed workshop to have the system
checked or, following the repair of a puncture, to have the original
wheel, equipped with a sensor, refi tted.
OPERATING FAULT

SPEED LIMITER
System which prevents the vehicle from exceeding the speed
programmed by the driver.
When the programmed speed limit is reached, pressing the accelerator
pedal no longer has any effect.
The speed limiter is switched on manually: it requires a programmed
speed of at least 20 mph (30 km/h).
The speed limiter is switched off by manual operation of the control.
The programmed speed can be exceeded temporarily by pressing the
accelerator fi rmly.
To return to the programmed speed, simply slow down to a speed below
the programmed speed.
The programmed speed remains in the memory when the ignition is
switched off.
The speed limiter cannot, in any circumstances, replace the need
to respect speed limits, nor can it replace the need for vigilance
and responsibility on the part of the driver.
STEERING MOUNTED CONTROL
The functions of this system are grouped together on steering mounted
control.
1. Speed limiter mode selection dial.
2. Value decrease button.
3. Value increase button.
4. Speed limiter on / off button.

6. Speed limiter mode selection indication.
7. Programmed speed value.
PROGRAMMING
 Turn dial 1 to the "LIMIT" position: the speed
limiter mode is selected but is not switched on
(OFF / Pause).
You do not have to switch the speed limiter on in order
to set the speed.
 Set the speed value by pressing button 2 or 3
(e.g.: 55 mph (90 km/h)).
You can then change the programmed speed using
buttons 2 and 3 :
- by + or - 1 mph (km/h) = short press,
- by + or - 5 mph (km/h) = long press,
- in steps of + or - 5 mph (km/h) = maintained press.
 Switch the speed limiter on by pressing button 4 .

Switch the speed limiter off by pressing button 4 : the display
confi rms that it has been switched off (OFF / Pause).
 Switch the speed limiter back on by pressing button 4 again.

142
EXCEEDING THE PROGRAMMED SPEED
Pressing the accelerator pedal to exceed the
programmed speed will not have any effect unless
you press the pedal fi rmly past the point of
resistance .
The speed limiter is deactivated temporarily and the programmed
speed, which is still displayed, fl ashes.
Returning to the programmed speed, by means of intentional or
unintentional deceleration of the vehicle, automatically cancels the
fl ashing of the programmed speed.
EXITING THE SPEED LIMITER MODE
 Turn dial 1 to the "0" position: the speed limiter mode is deselected.
It disappears from the display.
OPERATING FAULT
In the event of a speed limiter malfunction, the speed is cleared
resulting in fl ashing of the dashes.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
On a steep descent or in the event of sharp acceleration,
the speed limiter will not be able to prevent the vehicle from
exceeding the programmed speed.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the pedals:
- ensure that the mat is positioned correctly,
- do not fi t one mat on top of another.

6/
DRIVING
CRUISE CONTROL
System which automatically maintains the speed of the vehicle at the
value programmed by the driver, without any action on the accelerator
pedal.
The cruise control is switched off manually or by pressing the brake or
clutch pedal or on triggering of the trajectory control system for safet\
y
reasons.
Switching off the ignition cancels any programmed speed value.
STEERING MOUNTED CONTROL
The functions of this system are grouped together on the steering
mounted control.
1. Cruise control mode selection dial.
2. Speed programming / value decrease button.
3. Speed programming / value increase button.
4. Cruise control off / resume button.
The cruise control cannot, in any circumstances, replace the need
to respect speed limits, nor can it replace the need for vigilance
and responsibility on the part of the driver.
You are advised to keep your feet near the pedals at all times.
The cruise control is
switched on manually: it requires a minimum
vehicle speed of 25 mph (40 km/h) and the engaging:
- of fourth gear on the manual gearbox,
- of second gear on the automatic gearbox, in sequential driving mode,
- of position D on the automatic gearbox.
It is possible to exceed the programmed speed temporarily by pressing
the accelerator pedal.
To return to the programmed speed, simply release the accelerator
pedal.

EXCEEDING THE PROGRAMMED SPEED
Intentional or unintentional exceeding of the
programmed speed results in fl ashing of this speed in
the screen.
Return to the programmed speed, by means of
intentional or unintentional deceleration of the vehicle, automatically \
cancels the fl ashing of the speed.
EXITING CRUISE CONTROL MODE
 Turn dial 1 to the "0" position: the cruise control mode is
deselected. It disappears from the display.
OPERATING FAULT
In the event of a cruise control malfunction, the speed is cleared
resulting in fl ashing of the dashes.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
When the cruise control is switched on, be careful if you maintain
the pressure on one of the programmed speed changing buttons:
this may result in a very rapid change in the speed of your vehicle.
Do not use the cruise control on slippery roads or in heavy traffi c.
On a steep descent, the cruise control will not be able to prevent
the vehicle from exceeding the programmed speed.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the pedals:
- ensure that the mat is positioned correctly,
- never fi t one mat on top of another.

146
This function cannot, in any circumstances, take the place of the
vigilance and responsibility of the driver. Certain types of obstacle (stake, roadworks cone, etc.) detected
initially will no longer be detected at the end of the manoeuvre due
to the presence of blind spots.
PARKING SENSORS
This system indicates the proximity of an obstacle (person, vehicle, tree,
gate, etc.) which comes within the fi eld of detection of sensors located
in the bumper.
REAR PARKING SENSORS
The system is switched on by engaging reverse gear. This is
accompanied by an audible signal.
The system is switched off when you come out of reverse gear.
Audible assistance
The proximity information is given by an intermittent audible signal, th\
e
frequency of which increases as the vehicle approaches the obstacle.
The sound emitted by the speaker (right or left) indicates the side on\

which the obstacle is located.
When the distance between the vehicle and the obstacle becomes
less than approximately thirty centimetres, the audible signal becomes
continuous.

Deactivation / Activation of the front and rear parking sensors
Visual assistance

FRONT PARKING SENSORS
In addition to the rear parking sensors, the front parking sensors are
triggered when an obstacle is detected in front and the speed of the
vehicle is still below 6 mph (10 km/h).
The front parking sensors are interrupted if the vehicle stops for more \
than three seconds in forward gear, if no further obstacles are detected
or when the speed of the vehicle exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h).
This supplements the audible signal by displaying bars in the
multifunction screen which move progressively nearer to the vehicle.
When the obstacle is near, the "Danger" symbol is displayed in the
screen. The function is deactivated by pressing this button. The indicator lamp
in the button comes on.
Pressing this button again reactivates the function. The indicator lamp in
the button goes off. The sound emitted by the speaker (front or rear) indicates whether the\

obstacle is in front or behind.

148
Deactivation / Activation of the rear parking sensors
The function is deactivated or activated via the vehicle confi guration
menu.
The status of the function is stored when the ignition is switched off.
OPERATING FAULT
In the event of a malfunction of the system, when reverse gear
is engaged this warning lamp is displayed in the instrument
panel and/or a message appears in the screen, accompanied
by an audible signal (short beep).
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
In bad weather or in winter, ensure that the sensors are not
covered with mud, ice or snow. When reverse gear is engaged, an
audible signal (long beep) indicates that the sensors may be dirty.
Certain sound sources (motorcycle, lorry, pneumatic drill, etc.)
may trigger the audible signals of the parking sensor system.
The function will be deactivated automatically if a trailer is being
towed or a bicycle carrier is fi tted (vehicle fi tted with a towbar or
bicycle carrier recommended by PEUGEOT).
