Distance alert*
For the safety time to be observed, refer
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 vigilance on
the part of the driver.1.

Operating limits
If the indicator lamp in button 1
flashes, have the system checked
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
This system is not an anti-collision radar
and it does not act on the movement
of your vehicle. It provides information
but cannot, in any circumstances, take
the place of vigilance on the part of the
driver.
F

P

ress button 1 to deactivate the system,
the indicator lamp goes off. The system switches to standby automatically
if the sensor does not detect the vehicle in front
correctly (very difficult weather conditions,
sensor out of adjustment, ...). A message is
displayed in the multifunction screen.
The vehicle being followed may not be detected
in certain conditions such as, for example:
-
w

hen turning,
-
w

hen changing lane,
-

w

hen the vehicle in front is either too far
ahead (maximum range of the sensor:
100 m) or stationary (in a traffic jam, ...).
When the vehicle being followed is much
too near (time between the two vehicles less
than

0.5 seconds), the display remains fixed
at

0.5 seconds.

The speed limiter is switched on manually:
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 remains in memory
when the ignition is switched off. 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 unless it is pressed firmly, which
allows the programmed speed to be temporarily
exceeded.
To return to the programmed speed, simply
slow down to a speed below the programmed
speed by releasing the accelerator.
The speed limiter cannot, in any
circumstances, replace the need to observe
speed limits, nor can it replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.This information also appears in the
head-up display.
For more information, refer to the
"Head-up display" section.

Operating fault
On a steep descent or in the event of
sharp acceleration, the speed limiter
will not be able to prevent the vehicle
from exceeding the programmed speed.
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,
-

d
o not fit one mat on top of another.
Return to normal
driving
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, which is still
displayed, flashes.
Returning to the programmed speed, by means
of intentional or unintentional deceleration of
the vehicle, automatically cancels the flashing
of the programmed speed. In the event of a speed limiter malfunction, the
speed is cleared resulting in flashing of the
dashes.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.

The cruise control is switched on manually: it
requires a minimum vehicle speed of 25 mph
(40 km/h) and the engagement of:
-

f
ourth gear on the manual gearbox,
-

s
econd gear in manual mode on an
electronic or automatic gearbox,
-
position A on an electronic gearbox or D
on an automatic gearbox.
The cruise control is switched off manually
or by pressing the brake or clutch pedal or on
triggering of the DSC/ASR systems for safety
reasons.
It is possible to exceed the programmed speed
temporarily by pressing the accelerator pedal.
To return to the programmed speed, simply
release the accelerator pedal. System which automatically maintains the
speed of the vehicle at the value programmed
by the driver, without any action on the
accelerator pedal.
Switching off the ignition cancels any
programmed speed value.
The cruise control cannot, in any
circumstances, replace the need to observe
speed limits, nor can it replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.This information also appears in the
head-up display.

Exceeding the programmed
speedReturn to normal driving
Operating fault
When the cruise control is switched on,
be careful if you maintain the pressure
on one of the programmed speed
changing buttons: this may result in
a very rapid change in the speed of
your


vehicle.
Do not use the cruise control on
slippery roads or in heavy traffic.
On a steep descent, the cruise control
will not be able to prevent the vehicle
from exceeding the programmed speed.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the
pedals:
-

e
nsure that the mat is positioned

-

n
ever fit one mat on top of another.
Intentional or unintentional exceeding of the
programmed speed results in flashing of this
speed in the screen.
Return to the programmed speed, by means of
intentional or unintentional deceleration of the
vehicle, automatically cancels the flashing of
the speed.
In the event of a cruise control malfunction,
the speed is cleared resulting in flashing of the
dashes.
