CRUISe CONtROL, SPeeD LIMIteR: speed limiter (6/6)
Putting the function on
standby
The speed limiter function is sus-
pended when you press switch 4 (O).
In this case, the limit speed will remain
stored and is no longer displayed in
zone 6 and the message “ Memorised”
along with the stored speed will appear
on the display.
Recalling the limit speed
If a speed has been stored, it can be re-
called by pressing switch 5 (R).
Switching off the function
The speed limiter function is deacti -
vated if you press switch 1: in this case
a speed is no longer stored. The in -
strument panel orange indicator light 7
goes out to confirm that the function is
deactivated.
When the speed limiter is put on
standby, pressing switch 2 (+) re -
activates the function without taking
into account the stored speed: it is
the speed at which the vehicle is
moving that is taken into account.

Cruise control (Analogue Instrument panel)
CRUISe CONtROL, SPeeD LIMIteR: cruise control function (1/8)
The cruise control function
is in no way linked to the
braking system.
This function is an addi -
tional driving aid. However,
the function does not take
the place of the driver.
Therefore, it can under no circum -
stances replace the driver’s respon-
sibility to respect speed limits and to
be vigilant (the driver must always
be ready to brake). Cruise control
must not be used in heavy traffic, on
undulating or slippery roads (black
ice, aquaplaning, gravel) and during
bad weather (fog, rain, side winds
etc.).
There is a risk of accidents.
Controls
1 Main “On/Off” switch.
2 Limit speed activation, storage and
increase switch (+).
3 Decrease cruising speed (-).
4 Switch the function off (with stor -
age of governed cruising speed)
(O).
5 Activation with recall of stored gov-
erned cruising speed (R).

AInstrument panel AThe cruise control function helps you to
maintain your driving speed at a speed
that you choose, called the cruising
speed.
This cruising speed may be set at any
speed above 20 mph (30 km/h).
The cruise control operates differently
depending on the vehicle’s instrument
panel. There are two different operating
modes (instrument panel A and B) de-
tailed below

CRUISe CONtROL, SPeeD LIMIteR: cruise control function (4/8)
When the cruise control function is
put on standby, pressing switch 2 (+)
reactivates the cruise control func -
tion without taking into account the
stored speed: it is the speed at
which the vehicle is moving that is
taken into account.Putting the cruise control
on standby or switching it
off does not cause a rapid
reduction in speed: you
must brake by depressing the brake
pedal.
Putting the function on
standby
The function is suspended when you:
– the switch 4 (O);
– the brake pedal;
– depress the clutch pedal or shift into
neutral if the vehicle has an auto -
matic gearbox.
In all three cases, the cruising speed
remains stored and the message
“Memorised ” appears on the instrument
panel.
Standby is confirmed when indicator
light
¦ goes out. Returning to the cruising speed
If a speed is stored, it can be recalled,
once you are sure that the road con
-
ditions are suitable (traffic, road sur -
face, weather conditions, etc.). Press
switch 5 (R) if the vehicle speed is
above 20 mph (30 km/h).
When the stored speed is recalled, acti-
vation of the cruise control is confirmed
by the illumination of the
¦ warn -
ing light.
Note: if the speed previously stored is
much higher than the current speed,
the vehicle will accelerate more rapidly
to reach this threshold.
