SPEED LIMITER
System which prevents the vehi-
cle from exceeding the speed pro-
grammed by the driver.
Once the limit speed has been
reached, the accelerator pedal no
longer has any effect.
The speed limiter is switched
on manually: a speed of at least
30 km/h (around 20 mph) must be
programmed.
The speed limiter controls are located
on the left-hand side of the steering
wheel. The programmed information is
grouped together in zone
A of the
instrument panel display.
Steering wheel controls Displays on the instrument
panel
Programming
Rotate the control
1 to the "LIM" po-
sition. With the engine running, you can
adjust the memorised maximum
speed , by means of short or long
presses on:
button 4 to increase the memo-
rised maximum speed,
button 2 to decrease the memo-
rised maximum speed.
Successive presses will modify the
maximum speed in steps of 1 mph
and a sustained press in steps of
3 mph.
Activation
When the desired maximum speed
is displayed, press button 3 so that
the limitation is activated.
On selection of the
function, the previous
memorised speed and
the information "OFF"
are displayed: The information
"OFF"
then disappears from
the instrument panel
display.
While the function is active, press-
ing the accelerator pedal will not en-
able the programmed speed to be
exceeded, except if you press the
pedal hard down to beyond the end-
of-travel switch.
The speed of your vehicle may vary
slightly in relation to that memo-
rised.
The speed limiter cannot, in any
circumstances, take the place of
the observance of speed limits or
of the vigilance and responsibility
of the driver.

CRUISE CONTROL
System which automatically main-
tains the vehicle speed programmed
by the driver, without any action on
the accelerator pedal.
The cruise control is switched on
manually: the vehicle speed must be
at least 25 mph (approx. 40 km/h)
and you must engage:
- fourth gear on a manual gearbox,
- second gear, in sequential mode, on an electronic gearbox or auto-
matic gearbox,
-
position A on an electronic gearbox
or D on an automatic gearbox.
Steering wheel controls
The cruise control commands are
located on the left-hand side of the
steering wheel. The programmed information is
grouped together in zone
A of the
instrument panel display.
Displays on the instrument
panel
Activation You can then release the accelera-
tor pedal. The vehicle will automati-
cally keep to the speed chosen.
The speed of your vehicle may vary
slightly in relation to that memo-
rised.
You can adjust the memorised speed
on the instrument panel display by
pressing on:
button 4 to increase the speed,
button 2 to decrease the speed.
Successive presses modify the
cruise speed in steps of 1 mph and a
sustained press in steps of 3 mph.
Deactivation
Either by pressing on the brake
pedal or on the clutch pedal.
Or by pressing button 3 .
Or if either the ESP or the ASR
system is active.
The cruise control is not active if the
gear lever is in neutral.
On selection of the
function via control
1,
no cruise speed has
yet been memorised.
Programming
Rotate the control
1 to the "REG"
position.
Once the desired speed has been
reached via action on the accelera-
tor, press button 2 or button 4 . The
cruise speed is then memorised. It
is displayed in zone A of the instru-
ment panel. These actions cause
the information
"OFF"
to appear on the instru-
ment panel display.
These manoeuvres do
not cancel the cruise
speed which remains
displayed in the instru-
ment panel.
The cruise control cannot, in any
circumstances, take the place of
the observance of speed limits or
of the vigilance and responsibility
of the driver.

VISUAL AND AUDIBLE FRONT AND/OR REAR PARKING ASSISTANCE
System consisting of four proximity
sensors, installed in the front and/or
rear bumper.
It detects any obstacle (person, ve-
hicle, tree, barrier ...) located behind
the vehicle, however, it will not be
able to detect obstacles located im-
mediately below the bumper.
An object, such as a stake, a road-
works cone or any other similar ob-
ject may be detected at the start of
the manoeuvre but may no longer
be detected when the vehicle moves
nearer to it. The parking assistance is
switched
off :
- when you exit reverse gear,
- when the speed is higher than 6 mph (10 km/h) in forward
gear,
- when the vehicle has been sta- tionary for more than three sec-
onds in forward gear.
The parking assistance system
cannot, in any circumstances, re-
place the need for vigilance and
responsibility on the part of the
driver.
The parking assistance is
switched
on :
- by engaging reverse gear,
- at a speed below 6 mph (10 km/h) in forward gear.
This is accompanied by an audible
signal and/or displaying of the vehi-
cle on the multifunction display.
The proximity information is indicated
by:
- an audible signal which be- comes more rapid as the vehicle
approaches the obstacle,
- a diagram on the multifunction display, with blocks which move
closer to the vehicle.
The obstacle is located in relation to
the emission of the audible signal by
the speakers; front or rear and right
or left.
When the distance between the ve-
hicle and the obstacle is less than
a p p r o x i m a t e l y t w e n t y - fi v e c e n t i m e -
tres, the audible signal becomes
continuous and/or the "Danger"
symbol appears, depending on the
multifunction display version.

tion. O i l s p e c i fi c a t i o n
The oil must correspond to your
engine and conform to the manufac-
turer's recommendations.

Coolant level
Draining the circuit
The coolant does not have to be
changed.
F l u i d s p e c i fi c a t i o n
The coolant must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.
The reading will only be
correct if the vehicle is on
level ground and the engine
has been off for more than
15 minutes.
The check is carried out either when
the ignition is switched on using the
oil level indicator on the instrument
panel, or using the dipstick.
Between two oil changes, the con-
sumption should not exceed 0.5 litre
per 600 miles (approx. 1 000 km).
Check this level also between each
scheduled service and before long
journeys. T h e b r a k e fl u i d l e v e l s h o u l d
be close to the "MAX" mark.
If it is not, check the brake
pad wear.
The coolant level should be
close to the "MAX" mark but
should never exceed it.
When the engine is warm, the tem-
perature of the coolant is regulated
by the fan. This can operate with the
ignition off.
O n v e h i c l e s w h i c h a r e fi t t e d w i t h

engine is cold.
In addition, as the cooling system is
pressurised, wait at least one hour
after switching off the engine before
carrying out any work.
To avoid any risk of scalding,
unscrew the cap by two turns to
allow the pressure to drop. When
the pressure has dropped, remove
the cap and top up the level.
In order to maintain the
reliability of the engine and
emission control system,
the use of additives in the engine
oil is prohibited.
