CRUISE CONTROL Cruise control enables the vehicle to maintain a steady speed program-
med by the driver, regardless of the road characteristics and without thedriver having to touch the accelerator or brake pedals. In order for it to be memorised, the vehicle speed must be greater than 25 mph (40 km/h). Operation 
Place switch 1 in the ON position.
A speed can now be memorised.  Place switch 1 in the OFF position to de-activate the system.
Memorising a speed As soon as you reach the chosen speed, press button 2 or 3This memo-

Do not use cruise control on slippery roads or inheavy traffic. THE ABS ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM
When used with approved tyres in
good condition, the ABS increasesthe stability and manoeuvrability ofyour 406, particularly on poor or slip-pery road surfaces. The anti-lock braking system comes into operation automatically whenthere is a risk of wheel lock.
EMERGENCY BRAKING
ASSISTANCE SYSTEM
In an emergency, this system enables the optimum braking pres-
sure to be reached more quickly,thus reducing the stopping distance.It is triggered according to the speed
of activation of the brake pedal. The
effect of this is a reduction in theresistance of the pedal and an
increase in braking efficiency. The normal operation of the ABSmay make itself felt by slightvibrations of the brake pedal. In emergency braking, press very firmly without releasingthe pressure.
