CRUISE CONTROL
"This is the speed at which the driver wishes
to drive".
This aid to driving in free-flowing traffic
enables the vehicle to maintain the speed
programmed by the driver, unless a steep
gradient makes this impossible. In order for it to be programmed or
activated, the vehicle speed must be greater
than 25 mph (40 km/h) with at least 4th gear
engaged on the manual gearbox. This cruise control shows the status of the
system in the instrument panel screen and
displays the programmed speed:
Function selected,
displaying of the "Cruise
Control" indicator light.
Function deactivated,
OFF (example at
107 km/h).
Function activated
(example at 107 km/h).
Vehicle speed above
(e.g. 118 km/h),
the programmed speed
is displayed flashing.
Operating fault detected,
OFF - the dashes flash.

Steering mounted controls
Selecting the function
- Turn the ring fully upwards. The cruise control is selected but is not yet active
and no speed has been programmed.
The indicator comes on in the instrument
panel .
First activation / programming a speed
- Reach the chosen speed by pressing the accelerator.
- Move the switch up (+) or down (-) to memorise the speed. A message
appears in the instrument panel screen
to confirm the operation.
The vehicle will maintain this speed setting.
Temporarily exceeding the speed setting
It is possible to accelerate and drive
momentarily at a speed greater than the
programmed speed. The value programmed
flashes.
When the accelerator pedal is released, the
vehicle will return to the programmed speed.
Reactivation
- Following deactivation of the cruise control, press this button. A message
appears in the instrument panel screen
to confirm the reactivation
Your vehicle will return to the last
programmed speed.
Alternatively, you can repeat the "first
activation" procedure.

EASE OF USE and COMFORT
Steering mounted controls
There are two methods of memorising a speed
higher than the previous one:
Without using the accelerator:
- Move the switch up (+).
A brief press increases the speed by 1 mph
(km/h).
A maintained press increases the speed in
steps of 5 mph (km/h).
Using the accelerator:
- exceed the memorised speed until the speed required is reached,
- move the switch up (+) or down (-).
To memorise a speed lower than the previous one:
- move the switch down (-).
A brief press decreases the speed by 1 mph
(km/h).
A maintained press decreases the speed in
steps of 5 mph (km/h).
Changing the
programmed speed
Switching the system off
- Place the ring in the central O position
or switch off the ignition to switch the
system off.
When the vehicle becomes stationary, after
switching off the ignition, the system no
longer memorises a speed.
Operating fault
The programmed speed is cleared then
replaced by dashes. Contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop to have the
system checked.
Good practice
When changing the programmed reference
speed by means of a maintained press,
pay attention as the speed can increase or
decrease rapidly.
Do not use the cruise control on slippery
roads or in heavy traffic.
In the event of a steep slope, the cruise
control cannot prevent the vehicle from
exceeding the programmed speed.
In any event, the cruise control cannot
replace the need to observe the speed
limits, nor can it replace the need for
vigilance and responsibility on the part of the
driver.
It is advisable to leave your feet near
the pedals.
To avoid any jamming under the pedals:
- ensure that the mat and its fixings on the floor are positioned correctly,
- never place one mat on top of another.

SPEED LIMITER
"This is the selected speed which the driver
does not wish to exceed".
This selection is made with the engine
running while stationary or with the vehicle
moving. The minimum speed which can be
programmed is 20 mph (30 km/h).
The speed of the vehicle responds to the
pressure of the driver's foot as far as the
accelerator pedal point of resistance which
indicates that the programmed speed has
been reached. However, pressing the pedal beyond this
point of resistance to the floor permits
exceeding of the programmed speed. To
resume use of the limiter, simply reduce
the pressure on the accelerator pedal
gradually and return to a speed below that
programmed.
The operating actions may be carried out
when stationary, with the engine running,
or with the vehicle moving.
This speed limiter shows the status of the
system and the programmed speed in the
instrument panel screen:
System selected,
display of the "Speed
Limiter" indicator.
System deactivated,
last programmed speed - OFF
(example at 65 mph
(107 km/h)).
System activated
(example at 65 mph (107 km/h)).
Vehicle speed above
(example 70 mph
(118 km/h))
the programmed speed
is displayed flashing.
Operating fault detected,
OFF - the dashes flash.

Selecting the function
- Turn the ring fully downwards. The speed limiter is selected but is not yet
active. The display indicates OFF and
the last programmed speed.
Programming a speed
A speed can be programmed without
activating the limiter but with the engine
running.
To memorise a speed higher than the
previous one:
- move the switch up (+).
A brief press increases the speed by
1 mph (km/h).
A maintained press increases the speed in
steps of 5 mph (km/h).
To memorise a speed lower than the
previous one:
- move the switch down (-).
A brief press decreases the speed by
1 mph (km/h).
A maintained press decreases the speed in
steps of 5 mph (km/h).
Activation/Deactivation
Pressing this button once activates the
speed limiter, OFF disappears from the
screen and a message appears to confirm
the activation.
A second press deactivates it, OFF
reappears in the screen and a message
appears to confirm the deactivation.

Steering mounted controls
Exceeding the programmed speed
Pressing the accelerator pedal in order to
exceed the programmed speed will have
no effect unless you press the pedal firmly
beyond the point of resistance .
If the limiter is unable to prevent an increase
in the speed of the vehicle because of the
profile of the road or when going down a
step hill, the programmed speed may be
exceeded.
The limiter is deactivated temporarily and
the programmed speed flashes.
To return to the limiter function, reduce your
speed to below the programmed speed.
Switching the system off
- Place the ring in the central O position
or switch off the ignition to switch the
system off.
The last programmed speed remains in the
memory.
Operating fault
The programmed speed is cleared then
replaced by dashes.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked.
Good practice
In any event, the speed limiter cannot
replace the need to observe speed limits,
nor can it replace the need for vigilance and
responsibility on the part of the driver.
Always pay attention to the profile of the
road and sharp acceleration and stay in
complete control of your vehicle.
To avoid any jamming under the pedals:
- ensure that the mat and its fixings on the floor are positioned correctly,
- never place one mat on top of another.

If your vehicle is fitted with this function,
the speed of your vehicle can be limited
to a fixed speed of approximately 55 mph
(90 km/h) or 60 mph (100 km/h). This
maximum speed cannot be changed.
A label in the passenger compartment
indicates this maximum speed.
The fixed speed limiter is not a function
of the cruise control type. It cannot be
activated or deactivated by the driver
while driving.
