need to comply with speed limits or
of the vigilance and responsibility of
the driver.
System which automatically maintains
the vehicle speed at the value pro-
grammed by the driver, without any ac-
tion on the accelerator pedal.

The cruise control is
switched on
manually: the vehicle speed must be
25 mph (40 km/h) minimum and sec-
ond gear must be engaged in the case
of a manual gearbox.

The cruise control is switched off man-
ually, by an action on the brake or clutch
pedal or if the ASC system is triggered.

The programmed speed can be ex-
ceeded temporarily by pressing the
accelerator pedal.
To return to the programmed speed,
simply release the accelerator pedal.
