"DISTANCE ALERT"
For the safety time to be observed, re-
fer to the current legislation or highway
code recommendations in your country.
The system operates when the speed
of your vehicle is higher than 45 mph
(70 km/h) and below 90 mph (150 km/h).
It has a programmable visual alert
which remains in the memory when the
ignition is switched off.
This system is a driving aid and cannot,
in any circumstances, take the place of
the vigilance and responsibility of the
driver.
1. On/off.
2. Alert value increase (+)/decrease (-).
The information is grouped together on
the head up display.
Once the system has been activated:
A. The speed of your vehicle is outside
the operating range.
B. Your vehicle is within the operating
range but no vehicle has been de-
tected.
C. The vehicle in front of you has been
detected.
The current time separating you from this vehicle is displayed permanently.
D. The time between your vehicle and
the vehicle in front is less than the
p r o g r a m m e d a l e r t v a l u e ( i t fl a s h e s ) .
Buttons Displays during operation
Driving aid which informs the driver of
the time interval (in seconds) separat-
ing him from the vehicle in front when
the driving conditions are stable.
It does not detect stationary vehicles
and does not carry out any action on
your vehicle.

Activation
Deactivation
Press button 1 to deactivate the sys-
tem, the indicator light switches off.
Reactivation
Press button 1 again to reactivate
the system.
The last value programmed is retained and the indicator light comes on.
If the indicator light on but-

tem checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer.
Operating limits
The system switches to standby auto-
matically if the sensor does not detect
t h e v e h i c l e i n f r o n t c o r r e c t l y ( v e r y d i f fi -
cult weather conditions, sensor misad-
justed, ...). A message is displayed on
the multifunction display.
The vehicle being followed may not be
detected in certain conditions such as,
for example:
- when turning,
- when changing lane,
- when the vehicle in front is either too far ahead (maximum range of
the sensor: 100 m) or stationary (in
a t r a f fi c j a m , . . . ) ,
When the vehicle being followed is ex-
cessively near (time between the two
vehicles less than 0.5 seconds), the dis-
p l a y r e m a i n s fi x e d a t 0 . 5 s e c o n d s .
Programming the alert value
Select the alert value required using
button 2 , in steps of 0.1 second:
- up to increase: "+",
- down to decrease: "-".
Example with a value of 2 seconds:
This system is not an anti-collision
radar and it does not act of the move-
ment of your vehicle. It is informative
and cannot, in any circumstances,
take the place of the vigilance and
responsibility of the driver.
Press button 1 , the indicator light
comes on.
The system is activated but will only op-
erate from 45 mph (70 km/h).
The alert value can be programmed to
between 0.9 second and 2.5 seconds.
The visual alert can be deactivated by
programming a value of 0 second. When the time (in seconds) between
your vehicle and the vehicle in front is
less than the programmed time (alert
v a l u e ) , a v i s u a l a l e r t fl a s h e s .
A safety time of 2 seconds is
recommended in normal driv-
ing conditions (correct traction
and speed) to avoid a collision
in the event of emergency braking.

SPEED LIMITER
System which prevents the vehicle from
exceeding the speed programmed by
the driver.
When the programmed speed limit is
reached, pressing the accelerator pedal
no longer has any effect. The controls of this system are grouped
together on stalk A .
1. Speed limiter mode selection dial
2. Programmed value decrease button
3. Programmed value increase button
4. Speed limiter on/off button
The programmed information is grouped
together on the instrument panel dis-
play.
5. Speed limiter on/off indication
6. Speed limiter mode selection indica-
tion
7. Programmed speed value
Steering wheel controls Displays on the instrument panel
The speed limiter cannot, in any
circumstances, replace the need
to respect speed limits, nor can
it replace the need for vigilance and re-
sponsibility on the part of the driver.
The speed limiter is
switched on man-
ually: it requires a programmed speed
of at least 20 mph (30 km/h).
The speed limiter is switched off by
manual operation of the control.
The programmed speed can be ex-
ceeded temporarily by pressing the ac-
c e l e r a t o r fi r m l y .
To return to the programmed speed,
simply slow down to a speed below the
programmed speed by releasing the ac-
celerator.
The programmed speed remains in the
memory when the ignition is switched off.
This information is also dis-
played on the head up display.
For further details about the
head up display, refer to this "Driving"
section.

On a steep descent or in the
event of sharp acceleration,
the speed limiter will not be
able to prevent the vehicle from ex-
ceeding the programmed speed.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the
pedals:
- ensure that the mat is positioned correctly,
- d o n o t fi t o n e m a t o n t o p o f a n - other.

CRUISE CONTROL
System which automatically maintains
the speed of the vehicle at the value
programmed by the driver, without any
action on the accelerator pedal.
The cruise control is switched on
manually: it requires a minimum vehicle
speed of 25 mph (40 km/h) and the en-
gaging:
- of fourth gear on the manual gear- box,
- of second gear on the piloted manu- al gearbox or automatic gearbox, in
sequential driving mode,
- of position A on the piloted manual
gearbox or D on the automatic gear-
box. The controls of this system are grouped
together on lever
A .
1. Cruise control mode selection dial
2. Speed programming/programmed
value decrease button
3. Speed programming/programmed

of the programmed speed chang-
ing buttons: this may result in a very
rapid change in the speed of your ve-
hicle.
Do not use the cruise control on slip-
p e r y r o a d s o r i n h e a v y t r a f fi c .
On a steep descent, the cruise control
will not be able to prevent the vehi-
cle from exceeding the programmed
speed.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the
pedals:
- ensure that the mat is positioned correctly,
- n e v e r fi t o n e m a t o n t o p o f a n o t h e r .

gearbox.
Operation
The system acts solely in the context of
economical driving.
Depending on the driving situation and
your vehicle's equipment, the system
may advise you to skip one or more
gears. You can follow this instruc-
tion without engaging the intermediate
gears.
The gear engagement recommenda-
tions must not be considered compulso-
r y . I n f a c t , t h e c o n fi g u r a t i o n o f t h e r o a d ,
t h e a m o u n t o f t r a f fi c a n d s a f e t y r e m a i n
determining factors when choosing the
best gear. Therefore, the driver remains
responsible for deciding whether or not to
follow the advice given by the system.
This function cannot be deactivated. Example:
- You are in third gear.
In the case of driving which
makes particular demands on the
p e r f o r m a n c e o f t h e e n g i n e ( fi r m
pressure on the accelerator pedal, for
example, when overtaking...), the sys-
tem will not recommend a gear change.
The system never suggests:
- e n g a g i n g o f fi r s t g e a r ,
- engaging of reverse gear,
- engaging of a lower gear. - You press the accelerator pedal
moderately.
- The system may suggest that you engage a higher gear, if appropriate.
The information appears in the form of
an arrow on the instrument panel dis-
play.
Depending on your vehicle's equipment,
this arrow may be accompanied by the
recommended gear.
This equipment will become available
during the year.

tion + or - .
The gearbox engages the gear request-
ed if the engine speed permits. AUTO is
still displayed on the instrument panel.
After a few moments without any action
on the controls, the gearbox resumes
automatic control of the gears.
On sharp acceleration, the
gearbox will not change up un-
less the driver acts on the gear
lever or the steering wheel controls.
Never select neutral N while the vehi-
cle is moving.
Only engage reverse gear R when
the vehicle is immobilised with the
brake pedal pressed.
