ERGONOMICS AND COMFORT
Steering wheel controls
Cancelling the programmed speed
When the vehicle stops, after the ignition is
switched off, the system no longer stores
any speed. Good practice
When changing the programmed reference
speed by pressing and holding the control,
take care as the speed may increase or
decrease rapidly.
Do not use the cruise control on slippery
roads or in heavy traffic.
On a steep gradient, the cruise control will
not be able to prevent the vehicle from
exceeding the programmed speed.
The cruise control cannot, in any
circumstances, replace the need to comply
with speed limits nor can it replace the need
for vigilance and responsibility on the part
of driver.
It is advisable to leave your feet near the
pedals.
To prevent the mat from becoming caught
under the pedals:
- ensure that the mat is positioned
correctly,
- never fit one mat on top of another.
Operating fault
In the event of a malfunction, the function is
switched off and the indicator light switches
off.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have the
system checked.
