CRUISE CONTROL (3/4)
Exceeding the cruising speed
The cruising speed may be exceeded
at any time by depressing the accelera-
tor pedal. While it is being exceeded,
the cruising speed flashes on the in-
strument panel.
Then, release the accelerator pedal:
after a few seconds, the vehicle will
automatically return to its set cruising
speed.
Cruising speed cannot be
maintained
When driving down a steep gradient,
the system is unable to maintain the
cruising speed: the stored speed will
flash on the instrument panel informa-
tion display to inform you of this situ-
ation.
Adjusting the cruising speed
The cruising speed may be changed by
pressing the following repeatedly:
– switch 1 (+) to increase speed;
– switch 2 (-) to decrease the speed.
The cruise control function
is in no way linked to the
braking system.

2.36
Switching off the function
The cruise control function is deacti-
vated if you press switch 5: in this case
a speed is no longer memorised.
The
 and  indicator lights on the
instrument panel go out, confirming that
the function is deactivated.
Recalling the cruising speed
If a speed is memorised, it can be re-
called, once you are sure that the road
conditions are suitable (traffic, road sur-
face, weather conditions, etc.).
With a vehicle speed above 20 mph
(30 km/h), press switch 4 (R).
Note: if the speed previously stored is
much higher than the current speed,
the vehicle will accelerate more rapidly
to reach this threshold.
When the cruise control is set to
standby, pressing switch 1 (+) re-
activates the cruise control func-
tion without taking into account
the stored speed: it is the speed at
which the vehicle is moving that is
taken into account.Putting the cruise control
on standby or switching it
off does not cause a rapid
reduction in speed: you
must brake by depressing the brake
pedal.

Putting the function on
standby
The function is set to standby if you:
– press button 3 (O);
– the brake pedal;
– depress the clutch pedal or shift into neutral if the vehicle has an auto-
matic gearbox.
In all three cases, the cruising speed
remains stored and the message
“SPEED MEMORY” appears on the in-
strument panel.
Standby is confirmed when the green
 indicator light goes out.

VEHICLE WITH OVERSPEED FUNCTION
The vehicle speed may be permanently
set at a fixed value depending on the
vehicle or on local legislation.
To adjust the value or activate/deacti-
vate the function, consult an approved
dealer.
In the event of statutory limits (depend-
ing on the vehicle), this function may
not be deactivated.
Label 1 attached to the dashboard
shows the speed limit. Special case:
if your vehicle is fitted
with the Cruise control/Speed limiter,
fully depressing the accelerator pedal
(beyond the kickdown point) will not
allow you to exceed the overspeed
function set speed (refer to the informa-
tion on the “Speed limiter” in Section 2).
In exceptional circumstances (e.g.
steep gradient), the overspeed
function speed may be exceeded
slightly as the function does not
affect the braking system.
The function does not take
the place of the driver.
Under no circumstances
should it replace observa-
tion of speed limits nor vigilance
and responsibility on the part of the
driver.

2.38
PARKING DISTANCE CONTROL (1/2)
This function is an addi-
tional aid that indicates the
distance between the vehi-
cle and an obstacle whilst
reversing, using sound signals.
Under no circumstances should it
replace the driver’s care or respon-
sibility whilst reversing.
The driver should always be ready
for sudden incidents while driv-
ing: always ensure that there are
no small, narrow moving obstacles
(such as a child, animal, pushchair,
bicycle, stone, post, etc.) in the blind
spot when manoeuvring.
Operating principle
Ultrasonic sensors, fitted in the vehi-
cle’s rear bumper, measure the dis-
tance between the vehicle and an ob-
stacle when reversing.
This measurement is indicated by
beeps which become more frequent the
closer you come to the obstacle, until
they become a continuous beep when
the vehicle is approximately 25 centi-
metres from the obstacle.
There is a beep when reverse gear is
engaged. If the beep sounds for a long
time (about 3 seconds), this signals an
operating fault.
The parking distance control system
does not take into account towing and
load carrying systems etc.
Note: make sure that the ultrasonic
sensors are not obscured (by dirt, mud,
snow, etc.).
An impact to the underside
of the vehicle (eg. striking
a post, raised kerb or other
street furniture) may result
in damage to the vehicle (eg. defor-
mation of an axle).
To avoid any risk of accident, have
your vehicle checked by an ap-
proved Dealer.

2.39
Prolonged deactivation of the
system
You can deactivate the system perma-
nently by pressing and holding switch 1.
The warning light built into the switch
remains lit constantly.
The deactivated system can be re-
activated by pressing and holding the
switch again.
Temporary deactivation of
the system
Press switch 1 to deactivate the system.
The indicator light built into the switch
lights up to remind you that the system
is deactivated.
Pressing the switch again will react-
ivate the system and switch off the in-
dicator light.
The system is automatically reactivated
after the ignition is switched off and the
engine restarted.
Operating faults
When the system detects an operat-
ing fault, a beep sounds for about
3 seconds as a warning. Consult an ap-
proved dealer

REVERSING CAMERA (1/2)
Operation
Moving into reverse gear, the camera 1
located on the tailgate or, depending
on the vehicle, on the rear hinged door,
provides a view of the area behind the
vehicle on the rear-view mirror 2 or, de-
pending on the vehicle, on the multi-
media display 3, accompanied by two
moving or fixed guide lines 4 and 5.

Note: make sure that the reversing
camera is not obscured (by dirt, mud,
snow, condensation, etc.).Note: depending on the vehicle, you
can adjust certain settings from the
multimedia display 3. Refer to the
handbook for the equipment.
This function is an additional aid. It cannot, therefore, under any circ\
um-
stances replace the vigilance or the responsibility of the driver.
The driver should always be ready for sudden incidents while driving:
always ensure that there are no small, narrow moving obstacles (such
as a child, animal, pushchair, bicycle, stone, post, etc.) in the blind spot when
manoeuvring.

REVERSING CAMERA (2/2)
The screen shows a reverse image.
The frames are a representation
projected on a flat surface. This in-
formation is to not be taken into ac-
count when superimposed on a
vertical object or an object on the
ground.
Objects which appear on the edge
of the screen may be deformed.
In very bright light (snow, vehicle in
sunshine etc.), the camera vision
may be adversely affected.
If the rear doors are open or poorly
closed, the camera display disap-
pears and, depending on the ve-
hicle, the message “BOOT OPEN”
appears.
Dynamic gauge 4 (depending on the
vehicle)
This is shown in blue on the multimedia
display 3. It indicates the vehicle tra-
jectory according to the position of the
steering wheel.
Static guide line 5:
The fixed clearance gauge comprises
coloured markers A, B and C , indicat-
ing the distance behind the vehicle:
– A (red) approximately 30 centime-
tres from the vehicle;
– B (yellow) approximately 70 centi-
metres from the vehicle;
– C (green) approximately 150 centi-
metres from the vehicle. This gauge remains fixed and indicates
the vehicle trajectory if the wheels are
in line with the vehicle.
This system is initially used with the aid
of several gauges (mobile for trajectory
and fixed for distance). When the red
zone is reached, use the bumper image
to stop accurately.

Operating faults
When the indicator light integrated into
switch 1 does not come on or the power
take-off is not triggered:
– with the clutch pedal depressed, press switch 1 and release the clutch
pedal then repeat the procedure;
– or gradually release the clutch pedal.Switching off the function
– Depress the clutch pedal;
– press switch 1. The indicator light in-
tegrated in the switch goes out after
about 2 seconds.
When the power take-off is en-
gaged, do not change gear. If it be-
comes necessary to change gear,
you must first disconnect the power
take-off.

2.43
FAST IDLE SPEED
Press control 1, and the function will be
activated after a few seconds.
Modifying fast idle speed
To increase or reduce the speed, con-
tact an approved dealer.
Switching off the function
The function is interrupted when:
– you depress the clutch pedal and/or accelerator pedal;
– the sequential gearbox is not in neu- tral;
– the vehicle speed is above 0 mph;
– the
® indicator light is lit up on
the instrument panel;
– the
© indicator light is lit up on
the instrument panel;
– the
Ô indicator light is lit up on
the instrument panel.

Special feature relating to the
Stop and Start function: activation
of the “Fast Idle Speed” function
stops the engine going into standby
(refer to the information on “Stop
and Start" in section 2).

2.44
The self-locking differential controls the
torque transmitted to each rear wheel.
Depending on the grip conditions on
the road surface, and at low speeds
(under 20 mph/30 kph), this device en-
ables wheel torque to move automati-
cally, thereby providing increased grip.
This enables the grip potential of each
wheel to be used to the fullest possi-
ble extent, thereby enabling the vehicle
to run over areas with decreased grip
(e.g.: work sites, muddy ground, etc.).
Once the rear wheels return to surfaces
with normal grip (eg: return to paved
roads), the self-locking differential
device will be deactivated, sometimes
accompanied by a noise (with no con-
sequence to vehicle behaviour). You
have the option of turning this device
off yourself, once normal grip condi-
tions have resumed, by briefly releas-
ing the accelerator
SELF-LOCKING DIFFERENTIAL
This function is an addi-
tional driving aid.
However, it does not in-
crease the vehicle’s limits
and should not encourage you to
drive more quickly.
It cannot, therefore, under any cir-
cumstances replace the vigilance or
the responsibility of the driver.
