Speed limiter (Vti 68 engine)
System which prevents the vehicle from exceeding the speed programmed by the driver.
th

e speed limiter is switched on manually:
this can be done whatever the speed of the
vehicle. However, if you are driving at less than
20 mph (30 km/h), the programmed speed will
be fixed at 20 mph (30 km/h).
th

e speed limiter is paused by operation of the
control.
th

e programmed speed can be exceeded
temporarily by pressing the accelerator firmly
beyond the point of resistance.
to r

eturn to the programmed speed, simply
release the accelerator pedal until the vehicle
returns to the programmed speed limit.
th

e programmed limit speed is erased
when switching off the ignition.

the controls are grouped together on this
control stalk at the steering wheel.

after about 6 seconds.

A brief push on the control stalk modifies the
speed setting by + or - 1 mph (km/h).
A maintained push on the control stalk modifies
the speed setting by + or - 5 mph (km/h).

An audible signal accompanies the
flashing of the programmed speed
when exceeding the speed is not due to
an action by the driver (steep hill...).
As soon as the vehicle's speed returns to the
programmed value, the limiter operates again:
the display of the programmed speed becomes
steady again.

Reversing camera
the reversing camera is activated automatically when reverse gear is engaged.
th
e reversing camera cannot in any
circumstances replace the need for the
vigilance on the part of the driver.
th

e image is provided in the touch screen
only, with an indication of the limit of the rear
bumpers (red line) and the general direction of
the vehicle (blue lines).
Clean the reversing camera regularly
using a soft, dry cloth.
th

e field of vision covered by the camera is
limited: objects in the immediate proximity of
the bumper or located below it are not visible.
th

e camera's wide-angle lens deforms the
image presented in the screen: the distances
visible in the screen may be different from
the true distances.
t
h
is deformation varies
according to the loading of the vehicle and the
slope of the road.
High pressure jet washing
When washing your vehicle, do not
direct the lance within 30 cm of the
camera lens. Never reverse the vehicle looking only
at the screen.
It is normal to be able to see part of the number
plate at the bottom of the screen.

Lane departure warning system
System which detects the unintended crossing of longitudinal traffic lane markings on the ground, using a camera that recognises both solid and
broken lines.
to i
mprove your safety, the camera analyses the image and then triggers a warning if the vehicle wanders over a lane marking (speed higher than
30
mph (50 km/h)).
th

is system is particularly suitable for motorways and dual carriageways.
th

e lane departure warning system
cannot in any circumstances replace
the need for vigilance on the part of
the


driver.
It is necessary to observe driving
regulations and take a break every
two
hours.
Activation
F Press this button, located on the steering wheel.
Detection
You are alerted by an audible signal and the
display of a warning lamp in the instrument panel.
No alert is given if the direction
indicators are on and for around
20
seconds after they stop flashing.
th

e system should be deactivated when
driving with snow chains or the spare
wheel fitted.

Under-inflation detection
the system monitors the pressures in the four
tyres, once the vehicle is moving.
It compares the information given by the four
wheel speed sensors with reference values,
which must be reinitialised ever y time the
tyre pressures are adjusted or a wheel
changed.
th

e system triggers an alert as soon as it
detects a drop in the inflation pressure of one
or more tyres.
th
e under-inflation detection system
does not replace the need for vigilance
on the part of the driver.
th
is system does not avoid the need to
check the tyre pressures (including the
spare wheel) every month as well as
before a long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres impairs
road holding, extends braking distances
and causes premature tyre wear,
particularly under arduous condition
(high loading, high speed, long journey).
System which automatically checks the pressures of the tyres while driving.
th

e inflation pressures defined for
your vehicle can be found on the tyre
pressure label.
For more information on the
identification markings, refer to the
corresponding section.ty re pressures should be checked
when the tyres are "cold" (vehicle
stopped for 1 hour or after a journey of
less than 6 miles (10 km) at moderate
speeds).
Other wise (when hot), add 0.3 bar to
the pressures shown on the label. Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption.

n the event of a puncture, use the

th

e alert is maintained until the system
is reinitialised.
Reinitialisation
Before reinitialising the system, ensure
that the pressures of the four tyres are
correct for the use of the vehicle and in
line with the recommendations on the
tyre pressure label.
th

e under-inflation alert can only be
relied on if the reinitialisation of the
system has done with the pressures in
the four tyres correctly adjusted.
th

e under-inflation detection system
does not give a warning if a pressure is
incorrect at the time of reinitialisation.
It is necessary to reinitialise the system every
time one or more tyre pressures are adjusted,
and after changing one or more wheels.
A label attached to the middle pillar, driver's
side, gives a reminder of this.
Driving

97
108_en_Chap04_conduite_ed01-2016
the under-inflation alert can only be
considered reliable if reinitialisation of
the system is done with the the four tyre
pressures correctly set.
Snow chains
the system does not have to be
reinitialised after fitting or removing
snow chains.
operating fault
the flashing and then fixed illumination
of the under-inflation warning lamp
indicates a fault with the system.
In this case, under-inflation monitoring of the
tyres is no longer assured.
Have the system checked by a P

dealer or a qualified workshop.
Before doing anything to the system,
the pressures of the four tyres must be
checked and the system reinitialised.

Main lighting
the various front and rear lamps of the vehicle
are designed to adapt the driver's visibility
progressively according to the ambient light
level and weather:
-
s
idelamps, to be seen,
-

d
ipped beam headlamps to see without
dazzling other drivers,
-

m
ain beam headlamps to see clearly when
the road is clear.
Additional lighting
Other lamps are provided to meet the
requirements of particular driving conditions:
-
a

rear foglamp,
-

-

d
aytime running lamps to be more visible
during the day. In some weather conditions (e.g. low
temperature or humidity), the presence
of misting on the internal sur face of the
glass of the headlamps and rear lamps
is normal; it disappears after the lamps
have been on for a few minutes.travelling abroad
If using your vehicle in a country that
drives on the other side of the road, the
headlamps must be adjusted to avoid
dazzling on-coming drivers.
