Driving
On sharp acceleration, as when descending a steep hill, the speedlimiter will not be able to prevent thevehicle from exceeding the programmedspeed.
The limiter is temporarily deactivated and the displayed programmed speed flashes. An audible signal accompanies the flashing of the programmed speed when exceeding the speed is not due to an action by the driver.
The use of mats not approved by CITROËN may interfere with theoperation of the speed limiter.
To a v o i d a ny risk of jamming of the pedals:


- ensure that the mat is positioned correctly,

- do not fit one mat on top of another.

Active cruise control
This systems allows, in addition to maintainingyour vehicle's speed at a value that you have defined, the inter-vehicle time you have
selected between your vehicle the the one ahead to be maintained (2 seconds by default,
on activating the function).

Principles of operation

Using a radar with a range of about 100 metres,located at the front of the vehicle, this system
detects a vehicle running in front of your
vehicle.
It automatically adapts the speed of the vehicle
to that of the vehicle in front.
If the vehicle in front is running more slowly,
the system progressively reduces the speed of your vehicle using just engine braking (as if thedriver had pressed the "- " button).
If your vehicle is too close to or approaching tooquickly the vehicle in front, the cruise control
is automatically deactivated. The driver is then
aler ted by an audible signal, accompanied by a message.
If the vehicle in front accelerates or changeslane, the active cruise control progressively
accelerates your vehicle to return to the
programmed speed.
If the driver operates a direction indicator to
the left (left hand drive) or the right (right hand
drive), to over take a slower vehicle, the active cruise control allows your vehicle to temporarily
approach the vehicle in front to assist the
over takin
g manoeuvre, though never exceeding
the programmed speed.

The active cruise control operates byday and at night, in fog or in moderate rainfall.


The system does not act on the brakingsystem, but works only with engine braking.
The regulation range is limited: there willno longer be any adjustment of speed if the difference between the programmed speedsetting and the speed of the vehicle in front becomes too high (18 mph (30 km/h).


The activation of this system deactivates the function of inter-vehicle time.


If the difference between the programmed speed setting and the speed of the vehicle in front is toogreat, the speed cannot be adjusted: the cruise control is automatically
deactivated.
