cruise control CITROEN DS7 CROSSBACK 2023 User Guide

121
Driving06
The brake lamps come on if the vehicle is
slowed down by the system.
It can be dangerous to drive if the brake lamps
are not in perfect working order.


To do this, the system uses a camera fitted at the
top of the windscreen and, depending on version,
a radar fitted in the front bumper.
Primarily designed for driving on main
roads and motorways, this system only
works with moving vehicles driving in the same
direction as your vehicle.
If the driver activates the direction
indicator to overtake a slower vehicle,
cruise control may temporarily reduce the
distance to the target vehicle to facilitate
overtaking, without exceeding the speed
setting.

Switching on cruise control and setting the
speed
With an automatic EAT8 gearbox, your speed
must be between 0 and 112 mph (0 and 180 km/h).
►  Press 2-SET- or 3-SET+: the current speed
becomes the speed setting (minimum 19 mph
(30 km/h)) and cruise control is immediately
activated (green display).
►  Press 3-SET+ to increase or 2-SET- to decrease
the speed setting (steps of 5 mph (km/h) if held
pressed).
Pressing and holding either 2-SET- or
3-SET+ results in a rapid change in the
speed of the vehicle.
Pausing/resumption of cruise control

move off.

122
Driving06
If the driver takes no action after the vehicle
has been stopped, the electric parking brake is
applied automatically after about 5 minutes.
Cruise control remains active after
changing gear, regardless of the gearbox
type.
When the driver attempts to reactivate
cruise control after the function has been
paused, the message "Activation not possible,
unsuitable conditions" is displayed briefly if
reactivation is not possible (safety conditions
not met).

123
Driving06
Stop function
"Cruise paused" (for a few
seconds).
The system has brought the vehicle to a complete
stop and is keeping it immobilised: cruise control
is paused.
The driver must accelerate to move off again,
then reactivate cruise control.
Stop & Go function
"To pick up again: accelerate or
press the II button".
The system has brought the vehicle to a complete
stop.
Within 3 seconds, the vehicle gradually and
automatically begins moving again.
Beyond 3 seconds, the driver must accelerate or
press 4-II to move off again.
While the vehicle is immobilised, the
following recommendations apply:
–

The driv
er should not leave the vehicle.
–

Do no
t open the boot.
–

Do no
t drop off or pick up passengers.
–

Do no
t engage reverse gear.
When moving off again, watch out for
cyclists, pedestrians and animals, as they
may not be detected properly.
Operating limits
Cruise control operates by day and night, in dry
weather or moderate rainfall.
Certain situations cannot be managed by the
system and require driver intervention.
Cases not taken into account by the system:
–

Pede
strians, cyclists, animals.
–

St
ationary vehicles (e.g. traffic jams,
breakdown).


– Vehicles crossing your lane.
– V ehicles driving in the opposite direction.
Situations where the driver must suspend the
system:


– Vehicles in a tight bend.
– When approaching a roundabout.

– When follo wing a narrow vehicle.
Reactivate the system when conditions allow.
Situations in which the driver is prompted to
immediately resume control:
–

Ex
cessively sharp deceleration by the vehicle in
front of you.


– When a vehicle cuts in sharply between your
vehicle and the one in front.
Some vehicles on the road may be poorly
perceived or interpreted by the camera
and/or the radar (e.g. truck), which can lead to
an incorrect evaluation of distances and result
in inappropriate acceleration or braking of the
vehicle.
Pay particular attention:
– When mo torcycles are present and
when there are vehicles staggered across the
traffic lane.
–

When en
tering a tunnel or crossing a bridge.

124
Driving06
If any of the following malfunctions
occurs, do not use the system:
–

Follo
wing an impact on the windscreen close
to the camera or on the front bumper (versions
with radar).
–

B

rake lamps not working.
If the vehicle has undergone any of the
following modifications, do not use the
system:
–

Carrying long objects on roo
f bars.
–

Towing.
–

F

ront end of the vehicle modified (for
example by adding long-range headlamps or
painting the front bumper).
–

Ob
structed radar.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction,
dashes are displayed instead of
the speed setting.
This warning lamp comes on, accompanied
by a message and an audible signal, to
confirm the malfunction.
Have it checked by a dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Lane positioning assist
For more information, refer to the General
recommendations on the use of driving
and manoeuvring aids.


The system identifies the edges of the traffic lane
and steers the vehicle to keep it inside this lane
and maintain the lateral position chosen by the
driver.
To do this, the system uses a camera placed on
the upper part of the windscreen.
This system is particularly suited to driving on
motorways and main roads.
Operating conditions
– Adaptive cruise control active.
– Tra ffic lane marked out by lines on both sides.
–

ESC s
ystem operational.
–

ASR s
ystem activated.
–

No trailer det
ected.
–

No '
space-saver' spare wheel in use.
–

V
ehicle not subject to strong lateral
acceleration.
–

Direction indic
ators off upon activation of the
system.
Activation/Deactivation



►  With Adaptive cruise control with Stop&Go
function activated, press this button.
The action is confirmed by:
–

The indic
ator lamp in the button lighting up
green.
–

The follo
wing symbol being displayed on the
instrument panel.
The colour of the symbol on the instrument panel
depends on the operating status of the system:
(grey colour)
One or more operating conditions is not
met; the system is paused.
(green colour)
All operating conditions are met; the
system is active.
(orange colour)
System malfunction.
If the driver no longer wishes to use the system
for a while, they can deactivate it by pressing the
button again.
The indicator lamp in the button goes off and the
symbol disappears from the instrument panel.

125
Driving06
The system status is saved when the
ignition is switched off.
Cruise control
The driver must hold the steering wheel properly.
When cruise control is activated, the symbol is
displayed in green: by small steering actions, the
system directs the vehicle and keeps it in the
position chosen by the driver, in the traffic lane.
This position is not necessarily the centre of the
lane.
The driver can feel movements in the steering
wheel.
The driver can change the position of the vehicle
at any time, by turning the steering wheel. When
the driver feels that the vehicle’s position is
appropriate, whilst keeping hands on the steering
wheel, they must release the pressure to let the
system resume control of the steering, but the
vehicle will not be automatically centred within
the lane.
Pausing/Suspending the
system
The driver must act promptly if they
believe that the traffic conditions or the
state of the road surface require their
intervention, by moving the steering wheel to
temporarily suspend system operation. Any
intervention on the brake pedal that causes
the Adaptive cruise control to pause will also
cause the system to pause.
If the system detects that the driver is not
holding the wheel firmly enough, it
triggers a series of gradual alerts and then
deactivates itself if there is no response from
the driver.
If the function is suspended due to the
prolonged release of the force holding the
steering wheel, the function must be
reactivated by pressing the button again.
Automatic pause
– Triggering o f the ESC.
– Prolonged failure t o detect one of the lane
limit markings. In this case, the Lane keeping
assist function can take over, and the system will
reactivate itself once the operating conditions are
met again.
In response to action by the driver: suspension
– Activation of the direction indicators.
– Tra velling outside the lane limits.
–

T
oo tight a grip on the steering wheel or
dynamic action on the steering wheel.
–

Action on the brak
e pedal (resulting in a pause
until cruise control is reactivated) or accelerator
pedal (suspension for as long as the pedal is
depressed).
–

Pausing o
f Adaptive cruise control.
–

Deactiv
ation of the ASR.
