CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: limiter function (continued)
Driving
When a limited speed has been
stored and this speed is not reached,
driving is similar to driving a
vehicle without the speed limiter
function.
From this point, no effort on the
accelerator pedal will allow you to
exceed the programmed speed
except in an emergency (see
information on exceeding the
limited speed).
Switching on
Press switch 1ðside.
The indicator light on the
instrument panel comes on and the
computer switches to the “speed
limiter” function.
Limiting the speed
At a constant speed (above about 18
mph (30 km/h)) and in the correct
gear (for vehicles with manual
gearboxes), press switch 2: the speed
is stored.
Varying the limit speed
The limit speed may be changed by
pressing repeatedly or holding
down:
- key 2to increase the speed,
- key 5to decrease the speed.
The system is designed in such a
way that it is possible to detect a
difference between the cruising
speed and the speed shown on
the instrument panel.

CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: cruise control function (continued)
Recalling the cruising speed
If a speed has been stored, it is
possible to recall it by pressing
button 3 (the “Cruise control”
message appears on the instrument
panel) on condition that you are
driving faster than 18 mph (30 m/h)
and that you are sure that the
driving conditions are suitable
(traffic, road surface condition,
weather conditions, etc.).
Stopping the function
Press switch 1.
If you do this, the speed is not
stored.
The instrument panel indicator light
going out confirms that the function
is stopped.
Pressing button 2or 5reactivates
the cruise control function
without reactivating the stored
speed: the speed at which the
vehicle is moving is stored.
System standby
The function is interrupted when
you:
- depress the brake pedal,
- depress the clutch pedal or shift into neutral if the vehicle has an
automatic gearbox,
- press switch 4.
In all three cases, the cruising speed
remains stored and the message
“Stored” appears on the instrument
panel.
2.31
There is no rapid reduction
in the vehicle’s speed
when the cruise control
function is switched off or
to standby: you must depress the
brake pedal to brake.

AUTOMATIC GEARBOX
Operation
With the lever in position Por N,
switch on the ignition.
Foot on the brake pedal (the warning
light goes out), move the lever out of
position P.
Selector lever
The display 1on the instrument
panel informs you of the mode and
the gear engaged.
P: park
R: reverse
N: neutral
D : automatic mode
4: displays the gear engaged in
manual mode The lever must only be engaged in D
or R when the vehicle is stationary.
Foot on the brake and accelerator
pedal released.
You must apply the brake before
pressing the unlocking button to
move out of the P position.
Driving in automatic mode
Select position
D. In most traffic
conditions, you will not have to
touch the gear selector lever again:
the gears will change automatically
at the right time and at the most
suitable engine speed because the
“automatic system” takes into
account the vehicle load and road
contour and adjusts itself to the
particular driving style you have
chosen.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (continued)Parking the vehicle
When the vehicle is stationary,
keeping your foot on the brake
pedal, move the lever to position P
(park): the gearbox is in neutral and
the drive wheels are mechanically
locked by the transmission.
Engage the handbrake.
Special circumstances
- If the bends and hills on the road
do not allow you to stay in
automatic mode (e.g.: in the
mountains), we recommend that
you change to manual mode.
This will prevent the automatic
transmission from changing gears
repeatedly when climbing, and
permit engine braking on long
descents.
- To prevent the engine stalling in
cold weather, start the engine and
wait a few seconds before shifting
the selector lever from position P
or Nand engaging it in Dor R.
- Vehicles not fitted with traction
control: on a slippery surface or
surface with a low level of
adhesion, change to manual mode
and select second gear (or even
third) before starting the engine to
avoid wheelspin when starting.

you may tow the vehicle with all
four wheels on the ground, only
going forward, with the gear lever in
the N position, and for a distance
