DRIVER CORRECTION DEVICES AND AIDS (5/5)
Hill start assistance
This device assists the driver when
starting on hills (ascending or descend-
ing), and the warning light
 may
be displayed on the instrument panel. It
prevents the vehicle from rolling back-
wards by automatically applying the
brakes when the driver lifts his/her foot
off the brake pedal to depress the ac-
celerator pedal.
System operation
It only operates when the gear lever is
in a position other than neutral (other
than N or P for automatic transmis-
sions) and the vehicle is completely
stationary (brake pedal depressed)
The system holds the vehicle for ap-
proximately 2 seconds. The brakes are
then released (the vehicle will move ac-
cording to the slope).The hill start assistance
system cannot completely
prevent the vehicle from
rolling backwards in all sit-
uations (extremely steep gradients,
etc.).
In all cases, the driver may depress
the brake pedal to prevent the ve-
hicle from rolling forwards or back-
wards.
The hill start assistance function
should not be used for prolonged
stops: use the brake pedal.
This function is not designed to im-
mobilise the vehicle permanently.
If necessary, use the brake pedal to
stop the vehicle.
The driver must remain particularly
vigilant when driving on slippery or
low-grip surfaces and/or on hills.
Risk of serious injury.

LANE DEPARTURE WARNING (1/2)
This system notifies the driver when
they accidentally cross a continuous or
broken line.
This function uses a camera attached
to the windscreen, behind the rear-view
mirror.
This function is a driving aid in the event of the accidental crossing o\
f
a continuous or broken line in the road. However, the function is not in-
tended to replace the driver. The function can be disrupted under certain
conditions, including:
– poor visibility (rain, snow, fog, dirty windscreen, glare of the sun, partially obs- cured road lines, etc.);
– roads with tight bends;
– closely following a vehicle in the same lane;
– worn road markings, difficult to distinguish or spaced very widely apart;
– narrow roads;
– ...
In this case, warning light
\f on the instrument panel goes out to indicate that
the function will not operate (lines not detected).
Under no circumstances should this function replace the driver’s care or res-
ponsibility whilst performing manoeuvres.

2.31
LANE DEPARTURE WARNING (2/2)Adjustment
From the vehicle settings customisation
menu (please refer to the information
on the “Vehicle settings customisation
menu” in Section 1), you can:
– adjust the alert audio volume. To do this, select “lane departure alert:
volume” (five levels);
– adjust the alert sensitivity. To do this, select “lane departure alert: sensiti-
vity” (three levels).
Deactivation
Press button 1 on the central rear-view
mirror.
The warning light on button 1 goes out,
accompanied by a message on the ins-
trument panel “Lane departure warning
de-activated”.
Operating faults
In the event of a malfunction, a mes-
sage “Lane departure warning check” is
displayed on the instrument panel, and
the warning light on button 1 stays off.
Consult an approved dealer.
The function sounds the alarm if:
a line is crossed without activating the
indicator lights. The function alerts the
driver through warning light
on
the instrument panel, along with a beep.
Conditions for non-activation
of alerts
– Indicators activated or having been activated less than approximately
four seconds prior to departing from
the lane;
– Very fast lane departure;
– Driving continuously on a line;
– On bends, the function allows for slightly cutting the bend;
– ...
1
ActivationPress button 1 : the warning light on
the 1 button lights up, accompanied by
the message “Lane departure warning
activated” and a beep.
The function is set to notify the
driver if:
– the warning light on the 1 button
lights up;
and
– the vehicle speed is greater than ap- proximately 45 mph (70 km/h);
and
– lines are detected.
Warning light
\f comes on on the
instrument panel to notify the driver.

2.32
CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: speed limiter function (1/3)
The speed limiter function helps you
stay within the driving speed limit that
you choose, known as the limit speed.Controls
1 or 2 Main “On/Off” switch.
3 Speed limiter activation, memory
and increase (+).
4 Lowers the limited speed (-).
5 Speed limiter function standby (with limited speed memory) (O).
6 Activation and recall of memorised limited speed (R).
Switching on
Press switch 1 or 2 on the side .
Warning light
 comes on, lit orange,
and the message “Speed limiter” ap-
pears on the instrument panel A, ac-
companied by dashes to indicate that
the speed limiter function is activated
and waiting to store a limited speed.
To store the current speed, press
switch 3 (+): the limited speed replaces
the dashes and, depending on the vehi-
cle, the activation of the speed limiter is
confirmed by the message area being
lit orange. The minimum stored speed
is 20 mph (30 km/h).

CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: speed limiter function (3/3)
Putting the function on
standby
The speed limiter function is deacti-
vated when you press switch 5 (O). In
this case, the limited speed remains
stored and the message “Memorised”
accompanied by this speed appears on
the instrument panel A.
Depending on the vehicle, when the
function is on standby, this is confirmed
by the message area no longer being
lit orange.
Recalling the limit speed
If a speed has been stored, it can be re-
called by pressing switch 6 (R).
When the speed limiter is put on
standby, pressing switch 3 (+) 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.
Switching off the function
The speed limiter function is deacti-
vated if you press switch 1 or 2: in this
case a speed is no longer stored. The
orange warning light
 on the instru-
ment panel A goes out, confirming that
the function has stopped.

CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: cruise control function (2/4)
Switching on
Press switch 1 or 2,  side.
Warning light
 comes on, lit green,
and the message “Cruise ctrl” appears
on the instrument panel A, accom-
panied by dashes to indicate that the
cruise control function is activated and
waiting to store a cruising speed.
Activating cruise control
At a steady speed (above approx. 18
mph (30 km/h)), press switch 3 (+): the
function is activated and the current
speed is saved. The cruising speed re-
places the dashes and the activation of
the cruise control is confirmed, depend-
ing on the vehicle:
– by the appearance of the
 warn-
ing light;
– or by the message area lighting up in green.
Driving
Once a cruising speed is stored and
the cruise control function is active,
you may lift your foot off the accelera-
tor pedal.
Important: you are never-
theless advised to keep
your feet close to the pedals
in order to react if neces-
sary.

2.38
CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: cruise control function (4/4)
Note: if the speed previously stored is
much higher than the current speed,
the vehicle will accelerate more rapidly
to reach this threshold.
When the cruise control function is
put on standby, pressing switch 3
(+) reactivates the cruise control
function without taking into account
the stored speed: it is the speed at
which the vehicle is moving that is
taken into account.
Switching off the function
The cruise control function is stopped
if you press switch 1 or 2: in this case
a speed is no longer stored. The green
warning light
 on the instrument
panel A goes out, confirming that the
function is stopped.
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.
Returning to the cruising speed
If a speed is stored, it can be recalled,
once you are sure that the road condi-
tions are suitable (traffic, road surface,
weather conditions, etc.).
Press switch 6 (R) if the vehicle speed
is above 20 mph (30 km/h).
When recalling the stored speed, the
activation of the cruise control is con-
firmed, depending on the vehicle:
– by the appearance of the
 warn-
ing light;
– or by the message area lighting up in green.

AUTOMATIC GEARBOX (2/3)
An impact to the under-
side of the vehicle while
manoeuvring (e.g.: stri-
king a post, raised kerb or
other street furniture) may result in
damage to the vehicle (e.g.: defor-
mation of an axle).
To avoid any risk of accident, have
your vehicle checked by an appro-
ved Dealer.
In very cold weather, the system
may prevent the gears from being
shifted in manual mode until the
gearbox reaches the right tempera-
ture.
Driving in manual mode
With the selector lever in position D,
move the lever to the left. Shifting the
lever repeatedly allows you to change
gears manually:
– To move down through the gears, push the lever backwards;
– To move up through the gears, push the lever forwards.
The gear selected is displayed on the
instrument panel.
Special cases
Under certain driving conditions (e.g.
engine protection, or electronic stability
program (ESP) operational etc.): the
automatic system may change gear au-
tomatically.
Likewise, to prevent incorrect ma-
noeuvres, a gear change may be re-
fused by the automatic system: in this
case the gear display flashes for a few
seconds as a warning.
Special circumstances
– If the road contours and bends
do not allow you to stay in automa-
tic mode (e.g.: in the mountains),
we recommend that you change to
manual mode.
This will prevent the automatic gear-
box from changing gears repeatedly
when climbing, and permit engine
braking on long descents.
– In cold weather, to prevent the
engine from stalling, wait a few mo-
ments before shifting the selector
lever from position P or N and enga-
ging D or R.
Parking the vehicle
When the vehicle is stopped, move the
lever to position P while keeping your
foot on the brake pedal: the gearbox is
in neutral and the drive wheels are me-
chanically locked by the driveshaft.
Apply the handbrake or, depending
on the vehicle, ensure that the elec-
tronic parking brake is applied.

3.10
Manual use
Pressing button 11 allows air recircula-
tion to be forced, in which case the in-
tegrated warning light comes on as well
as warning light 14.
Prolonged use of this position may lead
to odours, caused by non-renewal of
air, and the formation of condensation
on the windows.
We therefore advise you to return to au-
tomatic mode as soon as the air recir-
culation function is no longer required,
by pressing button 11 again.Stopping the system
Press the button 7 to switch off the
system; in this case “OFF” is shown on
the display 12. To switch the system on,
press one of switches 2, 3 or 4.
Recycling
This function is managed automati-
cally (operation is confirmed by warn-
ing light 14 on display 12), but you can
also activate it manually.
Note:
– during recirculation, air is taken from the passenger compartment and
is recycled, with no air being taken
from outside the vehicle;
– air recirculation allows the external atmosphere to be cut off (when driv-
ing in polluted areas, etc.);
– lowering the passenger compart- ment temperature as quickly as pos-
sible.
AUTOMATIC CLIMATE CONTROL (5/5)
The demisting/de-icing will still take
priority over the air recirculation.
