FATIGUE DETECTION WARNING (1/2)
This function analyses the behaviour
of the driver at the steering wheel and
warns him of the risk of fatigue.
This function is an addi-
tional driving aid in case of
risk of fatigue. This function
does not take the place of
the driver.
Under no circumstances should this
function replace the driver’s care or
responsibility whilst driving.
Activation/deactivation
Vehicles fitted with a multimedia
system
From the multifunction screen 1: select
“Vehicle”, “Driving assistance”, “Fatigue
detection warn.”, then choose “ON" or

tection warn.” menu, then press the
switch 4 OK.
– Press the switch 4 OK again to acti-
vate or deactivate the function.
Operation
The function is set to notify the
driver if:
– the vehicle speed is greater than ap- proximately 37.2 mph (60 km/h);
and
– Approximately 15 minutes have passed since the deletion of the pre-
vious warning.
The function triggers an alert if the
system detects repeated signs of fa-
tigue in the driver at the steering wheel.
When a risk of fatigue is detected,
the message “Fatigue warning have a
break” is displayed on the instrument
panel accompanied by a beep.
Press switch 4 OK to delete the warn-
ing.
It is advisable to stop as soon as pos-
sible for a break.
FATIGUE DETECTION WARNING (2/2)
Note:
– if the warning is not deleted by press- ing switch 4 OK, the beep repeats;
– some driving styles may be inter- preted by the system as a sign of
tiredness (action on the steering
wheel, frequency of activation of the
direction indicators etc.) ;
– the use of the function is also useful on monotonous roads (motorways,
high-speed roads etc).
Operating faults
If the system detects a fault, the mes-
sage “Check fatigue warning” is dis-
played on the instrument panel. Call an
approved Dealer.

SPEED LIMITER (1/3)
Switching on
Press switch 1 on side . Depending
on the vehicle, the warning light

or
 is orange and the message
“Speed limiter” appears on the instru-
ment panel accompanied by dashes to
indicate that the speed limiter function
is activated and waiting to memorise a
limit speed.
To store the current speed, press
switch 2 on side a (+): the limited
speed will replace the dashes.
The minimum stored speed is 20 mph
(30 km/h).
Controls
1 Main “On/Off” switch.
2 Controls for:
a speed limiter activation, memory
and increase(+);
b decreasing the speed limiter(-).
3 Activation and recall of memorised limited speed (R).
4 Speed limiter function standby (with limited speed memory) (O).
The speed limiter function helps you
stay within the driving speed limit that
you choose, known as the
limit speed.
If you wish, you can associate the
speed limiter and the “Overspeed
alert” function (please refer to the in-
formation on the “Overspeed alert”
in Section 2).

2.52
SPEED LIMITER (2/3)Exceeding the limit speed
It is possible to exceed the limit speed
at any time. To do this: press the accel-
erator pedal firmly and fully (beyond
the resistance point).
While the speed is being exceeded, the
programmed speed displayed on the
instrument panel flashes.
Then, release the accelerator: the
speed limiter function will return as
soon as you reach a speed lower than
the stored speed.
Limited speed cannot be maintained
When driving down a steep gradient,
the system is unable to maintain the
limit speed: the memorised speed will
flash on the instrument panel and an
audible signal sounds at regular inter-
vals to inform you of this situation.
Varying the limit speed
The speed limiter can be changed by
repeatedly pressing switch 2 :
– side a (+) to increase the speed;
– side b (-) to reduce the speed.
Driving
When a limited speed has been stored
and this speed is not reached, driving is
similar to driving a vehicle without the
speed limiter function.
Once you have reached the stored
speed, no effort on the accelera-
tor pedal will allow you to exceed
the programmed speed except in an
emergency (refer to information on
“Exceeding the limit speed”).
The speed limiter function is
in no way linked to the brak-
ing system.

SPEED LIMITER (3/3)
Recalling the limit speed
If a speed has been stored, it can be re-
called by pressing switch 3 (R).
Putting the function on
standby
The speed limiter function is suspended
when you press switch 4 (O). In this
case, the speed limit remains stored
and the message “Memorised” accom-
panied by this speed appears on the in-
strument panel.
Switching off the function
The speed limiter function is deac-
tivated if you press switch 1 : in this
case a speed is no longer stored. The
switching off, depending on the vehicle,
of the orange warning light
 or  on
the instrument panel confirms that the
function is off.
When the speed limiter is put on
standby, pressing side a (+) on
switch 2 reactivates the function
without taking into account the
stored speed: it is the speed at
which the vehicle is moving that is
taken into account.

2.54
OVERSPEED ALERT (1/3)
The overspeed alert with signage panel
recognition notifies the driver that they
are exceeding the speed limit for the
section of road on which they are cur-
rently travelling.For vehicles equipped with a navigation
system and if the vehicle is travelling in
a country where the speed units differ
from those of the vehicle, the system
displays the speed limit sign in the unit
of the country, alongside the speed limit
converted to the unit used by the vehi-
cle’s instrument panel.
For countries where the speed limit is
reduced during rainy weather on some
types of roads, on vehicles equipped
with a navigation system, the system
can modify the limited speed after a few
seconds of wiping the windscreen.
Special situations
The system does not take into account
exceptional speed limit measures, such
as peak pollution days.
On equipped vehicles, some infor-
mation is given on the head-up dis-
play.
1Operating principle
The system detects speed limit signs
on the side of the road and displays the
speed limit.
It mainly uses information taken from
the camera 1
, attached to the wind-
screen behind the rear-view mirror.
Note: Make sure the windscreen is not
obstructed (dirt, ice, snow, etc.).
For vehicles which are equipped with it,
the system also uses information from
the navigation system.
Once the speed limiter is activated, you
can adjust the speed limiter indication
displayed by the system.
In the event of exceeding the speed
limit, the sign display is modified (the
characters change to red or the circle
around the sign flashes) no notify you.

2.56
This function is an additional driving aid. However, this function is not
under any circumstances intended to replace the due care and attention
of the driver, who should at all times be in control of the vehicle.
The driver should always adapt their speed to the traffic conditions, re-
gardless of the system indications.
The system enables maximum speed signs to be detected and does not detec\
t
other traffic signage.
The driver should not, however, ignore signs which are not detected by the system
and should as a priority comply with the traffic signage and the highway code.
In the event of poor visibility (fog, snow, frost, etc.), it is possible that the system
may not indicate the correct speed to the driver.
The driver should always adapt their speed to the traffic conditions, regardless of
the system indications.
OVERSPEED ALERT (3/3)
Operating fault
The system cannot detect the speed
limit if:
– the windscreen is not clean;
– the camera is blinded by the sun;
– there is insufficient visibility (night, fog, etc.);
– the signs are not legible (snow, etc.) or are hidden (by another vehicle or
by trees);
– the information taken from the navi- gation system is not up to date.

2.57
CRUISE CONTROL (1/4)
The cruise control function helps you to
maintain your driving speed at a speed
that you choose, called the cruising
speed.
This cruising speed may be set at any
speed above 20 mph (30 km/h).
The cruise control function
is in no way linked to the
braking system.
This function is an addi-
tional driving aid. This func-
tion does not take the place
of the driver. Therefore, it
can under no circumstances replace
the driver’s responsibility to respect
speed limits and to be vigilant (the
driver must always be ready to
brake). Cruise control must not be
used in heavy traffic, on winding or
slippery roads (black ice, aquaplan-
ing, gravel) and during bad weather
(fog, rain, side winds etc.).
There is a risk of accidents.
Controls
1 Main “On/Off” switch.
2 Controls for:
a cruising speed activation, storage
and increase (+) ;
b decreasing cruising speed (-).
3 Activation with recall of saved cruis- ing speed (R).
5 Switch the function to standby (with cruising speed saved) (O).

CRUISE CONTROL (2/4)Driving
Once a cruising speed is memorised
and the cruise control function is active,
you may lift your foot off the accelera-
tor pedal.
Please note that you are
strongly advised to keep
your feet close to the pedals
in order to react in an emer-
gency.
Activating cruise control
At a steady speed (above approx.
20 mph or 30 km/h), press switch 2
side a (+): the function is activated and
the current speed is saved.
The cruising speed replaces the dashes
and cruise control is confirmed by dis-
playing of the cruising speed, the mes-
sage “Cruise control” and depending on
the vehicle the indicator light
, in ad-
dition to the indicator light
 or .
If you try to activate the function below
20 mph (30 km/h), the message “Invalid
speed” will be displayed and the func-
tion will remain inactive.
Switching on
Press switch 1 on side .
The indicator light
 or  comes on,
lit green, and the message “Cruise con-
trol” appears on the instrument panel,
accompanied by dashes to indicate that
the cruise control function is activated
and waiting to store a cruising speed.
