WARNING LIGHTS (2/4)
A
xAnti-lock braking warning
light
This lights up when the ignition is
switched on and goes out after a few
seconds.
If it does not go out after the ignition is
switched on, or lights up when driving,
there is a fault with the ABS. Braking
will then be as normal, without the ABS.
Contact an approved Dealer as soon as
possible.
ÄToxic Fume Filter System
Warning Light
This lights up when the ignition is
switched on and goes out when the
engine is started.
– If it lights up continuously, consult your approved Dealer as soon as
possible;
– if it flashes, reduce the engine speed until the light stops flashing. Contact
your approved Dealer as soon as
possible.
Refer to the information on
“Antipollution, fuel economy and driv-
ing” in Section 2.
©Warning light
This lights up when the ignition
is switched on and goes out as soon as
the engine is started. It can light up in
conjunction with other indicator lights
and/or messages on the instrument
panel.
It means you should drive very care-
fully to an authorised dealer as soon
as possible. If you fail to follow this rec-
ommendation, you risk damaging your
vehicle.
åAir bag warning light
This comes on when the igni-
tion is switched on and goes out after a
few seconds.
If it does not light up when the ignition
is switched on, or comes on when the
engine is running, there is a fault in the
system.
Contact your approved Dealer as soon
as possible.
ÉPreheating warning light
(diesel version)
This should come on when the igni-
tion is switched on. It indicates that the
heater plugs are in operation. This goes
out as soon as the engine starts.
ÎSpeed limiter and cruise
control warning light
See the information on the “Speed lim-
iter” and “Cruise control” in Section 2.
\[Gear change indicator
This lights up to advise
you to change to a higher gear (up

The traction control system offers ad-
ditional safety. It is recommended that
you do not drive with the function di-
sabled. Correct this as soon as pos-
sible by pressing the switch 1 again.
Note: the function is reactivated auto-
matically when the ignition is switched
on or when a speed of approximately
24 mph (40 km/h) is exceeded.
Emergency brake assist
This system supplements the ABS
and helps reduce vehicle stopping dis-
tances.
Operating principle
The system is for detecting an emer-
gency braking situation. In this case,
the braking assistance immediately de-
velops maximum power and may trig-
ger ABS regulation.
ABS braking is maintained as long as
the brake pedal is applied.
Hazard warning lights switching on
Depending on the vehicle, these may
light up in the event of sudden decel-
eration.
Operating faults
When the system detects an operat-
ing fault the message “Check brak-
ing system” appears on the instrument
panel along with the
© warning
light.
Consult an approved dealer.
Braking anticipation
Depending on the vehicle, when you
rapidly release the accelerator, the
system anticipates the braking ma-
noeuvre in order to reduce stopping
distances.
Special cases
When using the cruise control:
– if you use the accelerator, when you release it, the system may be trig-
gered;
– if you do not use the accelerator, the system will not be triggered.
DRIVER CORRECTION DEVICES AND AIDS (3/4)
Disabling the traction control
system
In some situations (driving on very wet
ground: snow, mud, etc. or driving with
snow chains fitted), the system may
reduce the engine output to limit wheel-
spin. If this is not required, it is possible
to deactivate the function by pressing
switch 1.
The message “Traction control off” is
displayed on the instrument panel to
inform you.

CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: speed limiter function (1/3)
The speed limiter function helps you
stay within the driving speed limit that
you choose, known as the limit speed.Controls
1 Main “On/Off” switch.
2 Limit speed activation, storage and increase switch (+).
3 Decrease limit speed (-).
4 Switch the function to standby (with memorisation of the limit speed) (O).
5 Activation and recall of stored limit speed (R).
Switching on
Press the side switch 1 . Warning
light 7 comes on, lit orange, and the
message “Speed limiter” appears on
the instrument panel, accompanied by
dashes in zone 6 to indicate that the
speed limiter function is activated and
waiting to store a speed limit.
To store the current speed, press
switch 2 (+): The limited speed will
appear in zone 6. The minimum stored
speed is 20 mph (30 km/h).

2.31
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”).
Varying the limit speed
The limit speed may be changed by re-
peatedly pressing:
– switch 2 (+) to increase the speed;
– switch 3 (-) to decrease the speed.
Exceeding the limit speed
It is possible to exceed the limit speed
at any moment. To do this: press the
accelerator pedal firmly and fully
(beyond the kickdown point).
While driving over the speed limit, the
speed limit flashes on the instrument
panel, the display area A goes red
and, depending on the vehicle, a beep
sounds.
Then, as far as is possible, release
the accelerator pedal: the speed lim-
iter function will return as soon as you
reach a speed lower than the stored
speed.
Limited speed cannot be maintained
If driving up or down a steep gradient,
the system is unable to maintain the
limited speed: the stored speed flashes
on the instrument panel, the area A
goes red, and depending on the vehi-
cle, a warning beep sounds.
The speed limiter function is
in no way linked to the brak-
ing system.

Recalling the limit speed
If a speed has been stored, it can be re-
called by pressing switch 5 (R).
CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: speed limiter function (3/3)
Putting the function on
standby
The speed limiter function is deacti-
vated when you press switch 4 (O). In
this case, the speed limit will remain
stored and is no longer displayed in
zone 6 and the message “Memorised”
along with the stored speed will appear
on the display.
1
When the speed limiter is put on
standby, pressing switch 2 (+) re-
activates the function without taking
into account the stored speed: it is
the speed at which the vehicle is
moving that is taken into account.
Switching off the function
The speed limiter function is deacti-
vated if you press switch 1: in this case
a speed is no longer stored. The in-
strument panel orange indicator light 7
goes out to confirm that the function is
deactivated.

2.33
CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: cruise control function (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. However,
the function does not take
the place of the driver.
Therefore, it can under no circum-
stances replace the driver’s respon-
sibility 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
undulating or slippery roads (black
ice, aquaplaning, gravel) and during
bad weather (fog, rain, side winds
etc.).
There is a risk of accidents.
Controls
1 Main “On/Off” switch.
2 Limit speed activation, storage and
increase switch (+).
3 Decrease cruising speed (-).
4 Switch the function to standby
(with memorisation of the gov-
erned cruising speed) (O).
5 Activation with recall of stored gov-
erned cruising speed (R).

CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: cruise control function (2/4)
Switching on
Press switch 1 on the side showing .
Warning light 7 comes on, lit green, and
the message “Cruise control” appears
on the instrument panel and dashes
appear in zone 6 to indicate that the
cruise control function is activated and
waiting to store a cruising speed.
Activating cruise control
At a steady speed (above 20 mph
(30 km/h) approximately) press
switch 2 (+): the speed is stored. The
cruising speed will appear in zone 6.
Cruise control activation is confirmed
when area A lights up green in addition
to indicator light 7. Area B also lights
up green to indicate that the cruising
speed has been reached.
Driving
Once a cruising speed is stored and
the cruise control function is active,
you may lift your foot off the accelera-
tor pedal.
Important: you are never-
theless advised to keep
your feet close to the pedals
in order to react if neces-
sary.
