DRIVING
The cruise control cannot, in any circumstances, replace the need to respect speed limits, nor can it re-
place the need for vigilance and re-
sponsibility on the part of the driver.
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 on
manually: it requires a minimum vehicle
speed of 25 mph (40 km/h), as well as
the engagement of:
- fourth gear on a manual gearbox,
- second gear on a or automatic or elec-
tronic gearbox, in sequential mode,
- position A
on an electronic gearbox
or position D
on an automatic gearbox.
The cruise control is switched off
man-
ually or by pressing the brake or clutch
pedal or on triggering of the ESP system
for safety reasons.
It is possible to exceed the programmed
speed temporarily by pressing the ac-
celerator pedal.
To return to the programmed speed,
simply release the accelerator pedal.
Switching off the ignition cancels any
programmed speed value. The controls of this system are grouped
together on stalk A

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
If the telephone is being used at
the same time on the MyWay au-
dio navigation system, it will be
interrupted after 10 minutes. A fl at battery prevents the engine
from starting (refer to the corre-
sponding paragraph).
ENERGY ECONOMY MODE
System which manages the period of
use of certain functions to conserve a
suffi cient level of charge in the battery.
After the engine has stopped, you can
still use functions such as the audio
equipment, windscreen wipers, dipped
beam headlamps, courtesy lamps, etc.
for a maximum combined period of
thirty minutes.
Switching to economy mode
Once this period has elapsed, a mes-
sage appears on the multifunction
screen indicating that the vehicle has
switched to economy mode and the ac-
tive functions are put on standby.
Exiting economy mode
These functions are reactivated auto-
matically the next time the vehicle is
driven.
)
In order to resume the use of these
functions immediately, start the en-
gine and let it run for a few minutes.
The time available to you will then be dou-
ble the period for which the engine is left
running. However, this period will always
be between fi ve and thirty minutes.
This period may be greatly re-
duced if the battery is not fully
charged.
