CRUISE CONTROL Cruise control enables the vehicle to maintain a steady speed pro-
grammed by the driver, regardless ofthe road characteristics and withoutthe driver having to touch the acce-lerator or brake pedals. In order for it to be memorised, the vehicle speed must be greater than40 km/h or 60 km/h , depending onthe engine, and fourth gear at leastmust be engaged (second gear forthe automatic gearbox). Operation Place switch 1in the ONposition.
A speed can be memorised. Place switch 1in the OFFposition
to cancel.
Memorising a speedAs soon as you reach the chosen speed, press button 2or 3. This
memorises the speed, which will be
maintained automatically. Note: It is possible to accelerate and drive momentarily at a speed greater than the memorised speed. When theaccelerator pedal is released, the vehi-cle will return to the memorised speed. Cancelling the memorised speed If you wish to cancel the memorised speed: 
press button 4or the brake or
clutch pedal.
Recalling the memorised speed After cancellation, press button 4.

THE ABS ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM
When used with approved tyres in
good condition, the ABS increasesthe stability and manoeuvrability ofyour vehicle, particularly on poor orslippery 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 by the speed at which
the brake pedal is activated. 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.

Fuses The LPG functions are protected by the two fuses Ain the fuse box
located in the engine compartment.
Using the repair cans (Refer to the directions on the cans also)
Ð if possible, remove the object
which caused the puncture,
