The units for the speed limits (mph or
km/h) depend on the country you are
driving in.
It should be taken into account so that you
obser ve the speed limit.
For the system to operate correctly when
you change country, the units for speed in
the instrument panel must be those for the
country you are driving in.

The automatic reading of road signs is
a driving aid system and does not always
display speed limits correctly.
The speed limit signs present on the road
always take priority in comparison with the
display by the system.
The system is designed to detect signs
that conform to the Vienna Convention on
road signs. Specific speed limits, such as those for
heavy goods vehicles, are not displayed.
The display of the speed limit in the
instrument panel is updated as you pass
a
speed limit sign intended for cars (light
vehicles).

Activation/Deactivation
By default, the system is automatically
activated at every engine start.The function is activated and
deactivated in the Driving /Vehicle
menu of the touch screen.
Displays in the instrument panel

or
2. Indication of the end of the speed limit.
The system is active but is not detecting speed
limit information. On detection of speed limit information, the
system displays the value.Operating limits
The legislation on speed limits is specific to
each country.
The system does not take account of reduced
speed limits in the following cases:
-

p
oor weather (rain, snow),
-
a

tmospheric pollution,
-
w

hen towing,
-

d
riving with a space-saver type spare wheel
or snow chains fitted,
-
p

uncture repair using the temporary repair
kit,
-
y

oung drivers, etc. The following situations may interfere with
the operation of the system or prevent it from
working:
-

p
oor visibility (inadequate street lighting,
falling snow, rain, fog),
-
w
indscreen area located in front of the
camera dirty, misted, frost-covered, snow-
covered, damaged or covered by a sticker,
-
f
ault with the camera,
-
o
bsolete or incorrect mapping,
-
o
bstructed road signs (by other vehicles,
vegetation, snow),
-
s
peed limit signs that do not conform to the
standard, are damaged or distorted.
Recommendation
For a suggested maximum speed, the first
t ime that the vehicle's speed exceeds it by
more than 3
mph (5 km/h) (example: 59 mph
(95
km/h)), the speed flashes for 10 seconds.
In addition to Speed Limit recognition and
recommendation , the driver can select the
speed displayed as a
speed setting for the
speed limiter or cruise control using the speed
limiter or cruise control storage button.

new speed setting.
If there is a
difference of less than 6 mph
(9

RecognitionF Switch on the speed limiter/cruise control.
The speed limiter/cruise control information is
displayed.
This additional system recognises these road
signs and displays them in the instrument panel
if the appropriate display mode is selected.
One-way street: if you start driving the wrong
way down a
one-way street, an alert message,
including the sign's symbol, is displayed in the
instrument panel (request to check the traffic
direction).
Other signs: when approaching one of these
signs, the sign's symbol is displayed in the
instrument panel.
The real road signs always take priority
over the display from the system.
The signs must comply with the Vienna
Convention on road signs.

The speed setting remains in the system
memory when the ignition is switched off.

instrument panel as the new speed setting.
Temporarily exceeding the
programmed speed
When the limit speed is exceeded but this is not
due to action by the driver (in case of a steep
slope, for example), an audible signal triggers
immediately.
Once the speed of the vehicle returns to
the programmed setting, the speed limiter
functions again: the display of the programmed
speed setting becomes fixed again.
Switching off
F To temporarily exceed the programmed speed threshold, fully depress the
accelerator pedal.
The speed limiter is deactivated temporarily
and the displayed programmed speed flashes.
If it is exceeded for a
prolonged period of time,
an audible warning is triggered.
Simply release the accelerator pedal to return
to below the programmed speed. F

T
urn the thumbwheel 1 to the "
0" position:
the display of information on the speed
limiter disappears.
Malfunction
Flashing of the dashes indicates a fault with the
sp eed limiter.
Have it checked by a
CITROËN dealer or
a


qualified workshop. On sharp acceleration, as when
descending a
steep hill, the speed limiter
will not be able to prevent the vehicle from
exceeding the programmed speed.
The speed limiter is deactivated
temporarily 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 inter fere with the operation
of the speed limiter.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the pedals:
-
e
nsure that the mat is positioned
c o r r e c t l y,
-
n
ever fit one mat on top of another.
The selection screen closes after a

few
moments.
This setting becomes the new limit speed.

Cruise control – particular
recommendations
For the safety of everyone, only use the
cruise control where the driving conditions
allow running at a constant speed and
keeping an adequate safety distance.
Remain vigilant when the cruise control
is activated. If you hold one of the speed
setting modification buttons, a very rapid
change in the speed of your vehicle may
o c c u r.
When descending a


steep hill, the cruise
control system cannot prevent the vehicle
from exceeding the set speed. Brake if
necessary to control the speed of your
vehicle.
On steep climbs or when towing, the set
speed may not be reached or maintained. Exceeding the programmed speed
setting
The speed setting can be exceeded
temporarily
by pressing the accelerator
pedal (the programmed speed flashes).
To return to the speed setting, release
the accelerator pedal (when this speed is
reached again, the display of the speed
stops flashing).
Operating limits
Never use the system in the following
situations:
-

i
n an urban area with the risk of
pedestrians crossing the road,
-

i
n heavy traffic (except versions with
the Stop & Go function),
-

o
n winding or steep roads,
-

o
n slippery or flooded roads,
-

i
n unfavourable climatic conditions,
-

d
riving on a speed circuit,
-

d
riving on a rolling road,
-

u
se of snow chains, non-slip covers or
studded tyres.
Programmable cruise
control
Refer to the General recommendations
on the use of driving and manoeuvring
aids and to Cruise control – par ticular
recommendations .
This system automatically keeps
the vehicle's speed at the cruise
value programmed by the driver
(speed setting), without using the
accelerator pedal.
The cruise control is switched on manually.
It requires a
minimum vehicle speed of 25 mph
(40


km/h).
With a
manual gearbox, it requires the
engagement of third gear or higher.
With an automatic gearbox, it requires the
engagement of mode D or of second gear or
higher in mode M .
The cruise control remains active after
changing gear regardless of the gearbox
type on engines fitted with Stop & Start.

Malfunction
As a precaution, it is recommended
t hat the cruise speed chosen be close
to the current speed of your vehicle, so
as to avoid any sudden acceleration or
deceleration of the vehicle.
Memorising speeds
Linked to the speed limiter and programmable
cruise control, this function allows speed limits
to be registered which will then be suggested
as settings for these two systems.
You can memorise several speed settings for
each for system.
By default, some speed settings are already
memorised. As a
safety measure, the driver must
only modify the speed settings when
stationary.
Memorising speeds
From the Driving/Vehicle menu of
the touch screen, select " Driving
functions ", then "Memorised
speed settings ".

Some vehicles present on the road may
not be properly seen or may be poorly
interpreted by the camera and/or radar
(e.g. a lorry), which may lead to a poor
assessment of the distances and lead to
the vehicle inappropriately accelerating or
braking.
