System which prevents the vehicle from exceeding the speed programmed by the
d
river.
When
the programmed speed limit is reached,
p
ressing the accelerator pedal in the normal
m
anner no longer has any effect.
The
speed limiter is switched on
m
anually:
it r
equires a programmed speed of at least
20
mph (30 km/h).
The
speed limiter is switched off
by manual
o
peration of the control.
The
programmed speed can be exceeded
t
emporarily by pressing the accelerator firmly.
To
return to the programmed speed, simply

Exceeding the programmed speed
Pressing the accelerator pedal to exceed the programmed speed will not have any effect unless you press the pedal firmly past the point of resistance .
The
speed limiter is deactivated temporarily and the programmed speed,
w
hich is still displayed, flashes.
Returning
to the programmed speed, by means of intentional or unintentional
d
eceleration of the vehicle, automatically cancels the flashing of the
pro
grammed
s
peed. On
a steep descent or in the event of s
harp acceleration, the speed limiter w
ill not be able to prevent the vehicle
from
exceeding the programmed
s
peed.
To
avoid any risk of jamming of the

Cruise control
System which automatically maintains the speed of the vehicle at the value programmed
b
y the driver, without any action on the
a
ccelerator
ped
al.
The cruise control is switched on
m
anually:
it r
equires a minimum vehicle speed of 25 mph
(
40 km/h), as well as the engagement of:
-
f
ourth gear on a manual gearbox,
-
s
econd gear on a or automatic or electronic
g
earbox, in sequential mode,
-
p
osition A on an electronic gearbox or
p
osition d on an automatic gearbox.
The cruise control is switched off
m
anually
o
r by pressing the brake or clutch pedal or on
t
riggering of the trajectory control systems for
s
afety reasons.
It
is possible to exceed the programmed speed
t
emporarily by pressing the accelerator pedal.
To
return to the programmed speed, simply

Exceeding the programmed speed
Intentional or unintentional exceeding of the programmed speed results in flashing of this speed in the screen.

Leaving cruise control mode
F Turn thumb wheel 1 to the "0" position: the cruise control mode is d
eselected. The display returns to the distance recorder.
Operating fault
In the event of a cruise control malfunction, the speed is cleared resulting in flashing of the

ashes. Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer
o
r a qualified workshop.
When
the cruise control is switched on,
b
e careful if you maintain the pressure
o

Do
not use the cruise control on

Operation
When your vehicle is too close to or
approaches the vehicle ahead too quickly the
s
ystem automatically applies the brakes to
a
void a collision.
The
collision can be avoided automatically if the
d
ifference in speed between your vehicle and the
v
ehicle ahead does not exceed 9 mph (15 km/h).
Above
this threshold, the system will do what
i
s possible to avoid or reduce the accident by
l
owering the speed of impact.
The
automatic braking may bring the vehicle to
a
complete stop if the situation requires it.
In
this case, the vehicle is held stationary
t
emporarily (for about 1.5 seconds) to allow
t
he driver to take back control by pressing the
b
rake
ped
al.
You
are then alerted by the display of a
m
essage.
The
brake lamps on your vehicle come on to
w
arn other road users.
After
an impact, the system is
a
utomatically put out of service: it no
lon
ger
ope
rates.
You
must go to a CITROËN dealer or a
q
ualified workshop to have the system
m
ade operational again.
During
automatic braking, the driver
c
an always obtain a higher rate of
d
eceleration than that controlled by the
s
ystem, by pressing firmly on the brake
ped
al.
The
triggering of the system may cause
t
he engine to stall, unless the driver
d
epresses the clutch pedal quickly
e
nough during automatic braking.
deactivation
The system is deactivated in the vehicle configuration menu, accessible with the ignition
o
n.
Its
state is memorised when the ignition is
s
witched off. When
the system is deactivated, a
m
essage is displayed every time the
i
gnition is switched on, to warn you.
