Driving
Once a cruising speed is memorised
and the cruise control function is active,
you may lift your foot off the accelera-
tor pedal.
If a following distance is stored and a
vehicle travelling slower than yours is
detected by the system in your lane,
your vehicle will brake (with the brake
lights on) and adapt its speed to that of
the vehicle in front, respecting the fol-
lowing distance selected previously.
Overtaking
If your speed is lower than the cruise
control and you wish to perform an
overtaking manoeuvre, activating the
direction indicator will provide acceler-
ation enabling the overtaking manoeu-
vre.
Please note that you must
keep your feet close to the
pedals in order to react in
an emergency.
ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL (3/8)
Adjusting the cruising speed
The cruising speed can be changed by
pressing the switch 2 repeatedly:
– side a (+) to increase the speed;
– side b (-) to reduce the speed.
Varying the following
distance
You can vary the following distance
from the vehicle in front at any time by
pressing switch 6 repeatedly.
Horizontal following bars will be dis-
played on the instrument panel, indicat-
ing the following distance selected:
– one bar for a short distance (cor- responding to a following time of
around one second);
– two bars for a medium distance;
– three bars for a long distance (cor- responding to a following time of
around two seconds).
Choosing the distance should depend
on the traffic, the laws in your country,
and on the weather conditions.
If a vehicle is detected by the system in
your lane, an outline A of a vehicle will
appear above the following bars.

ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL (6/8)
Operating faults
When the system detects an operating
fault the message “Check cruise con-
trol” appears on the instrument panel.
There are two possibilities:
– the system is temporarily disrupted (for example: radar obscured by
dirt, mud, snow etc.). In this case,
park the vehicle and switch off the
engine. Clean the detection zone of
the radar. When you next start the
engine, the warning light and the
message go out;
– otherwise, this may be caused by another fault. Consult an approved
dealer

2.80
ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL (7/8)
This function is an additional driving aid. This function is not under any circumstances intended to replace the due\
care
and attention of the driver, who should at all times be in control of the vehicle.
The driver should always adapt their speed to the traffic conditions, regardless of the system indications.
The system should under no circumstances be taken to be an obstacle dete\
ctor or an anti-collision system.
System servicing/repairs
– In the event of an impact, the radar-camera alignment may be changed, an\
d its operation may consequently be affected. Deactivate the function and consult an authorised dealer.
– Any work in the area where the radar-camera is located (repairs, replac\
ements, windscreen modifications etc.) must be car- ried out by a qualified professional.
Only an authorised dealer is qualified to service the system.
Deactivating the function
You must disable the function if:
– the brake lights are not functioning;
– the area of the radar-camera has been damaged (on the windscreen side o\
r the interior rear-view mirror side);
– the vehicle is being towed (breakdowns);
– traffic is heavy;
– the vehicle is travelling in a tunnel;
– the vehicle is travelling on a windy road;
– the windscreen is cracked or distorted (do not carry out windscreen rep\
airs in this area; have it changed by an Authorised Dealer);
– the vehicle is travelling on a slippery road or in poor weather conditio\
ns (fog, snow, rain, side winds etc.).
In the event of the system behaving abnormally, deactivate it and consult an authorised dealer.

ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL (8/8)
Limitation of the system operation
– A vehicle travelling in the opposite direction will not trigger any alert\
or any action on the system operation.
– The radar-camera should be kept clean and free of any modifications in o\
rder to ensure the proper operation of the
system.
– Fixed obstacles (stationary vehicles, traffic jams, toll booths etc.) or objects travelling at low speed or of a \
small size ( motor-
bikes, bicycles, pedestrians etc.) may not be detected by the system.
– A vehicle entering the same lane will only be detected once it has entere\
d the detection zone. Sudden or late braking may then take place.
– When entering a bend or curve, the radar-camera may temporarily no longe\
r detect the vehicle in front, and this may lead to acceleration.
– When exiting a curve, the detection of the vehicle in front may be affected or delayed. Sudden or late braking may then take place.
– A slower vehicle travelling in an adjacent lane may be detected and cause\
a slowing down if one of the two vehicles is trav- elling too close to the lane of the other.
– A slower vehicle with a wide difference in speed may not be taken into account by the system.
– The system is deactivated below around 31 mph (50 km/h). Drivers must \
react accordingly.
– Sudden changes in situation are not instantly taken into account by the \
system. Drivers must remain vigilant at all times and
under all circumstances.
System disturbance
Some conditions can disturb or damage the operation of the system, such \
as:
– a complex environment (metal bridge, tunnel etc.) ;
– poor weather conditions (snow, hail, black ice etc.);
– poor visibility (night, fog etc.);
– poor contrast between objects;
– being dazzled (glaring sun, lights of vehicles travelling in the opposi\
te direction etc.).
Risk of unwanted braking or acceleration.

2.88
This function is an additional
aid. It cannot, therefore,
under any circumstances
replace the vigilance or the
responsibility of the driver.
The driver should always be ready
for sudden incidents while driv-
ing: always ensure that there are
no small, narrow moving obstacles
(such as a child, animal, pushchair,
bicycle, stone, post etc.) in the blind
spot when manoeuvring.
The screen shows a reverse mirror
image.
The frames are a representation
projected on a flat surface. This in-
formation is to not be taken into ac-
count when superimposed on a
vertical object or an object on the
ground.
Objects which appear on the edge
of the screen may be deformed.
In very bright light (snow, vehicle in
sunshine etc.), the camera vision
may be adversely affected.
If the boot is open or poorly closed,
the message “Boot open” appears
and the camera display disappears.
You can also adjust the camera image
settings (brightness, contrast, etc.)
Activating, deactivating the
reversing camera
From the multifunction screen 2, select
“Vehicle”, “Settings”, “Parking as-
sistance”, then “Rear view camera”.
Activate or deactivate the reversing
camera and confirm your choice.

ASSISTED PARKING (2/4)
Choice of manoeuvre
The system can perform four types of
manoeuvres:
– parallel parking;
– perpendicular parking;
– angle parking;
– moving out of a parallel parking space.
From the multifunction screen, select
the manoeuvre to be performed.
Note: when starting the vehicle, or after
having successfully completed parallel
parking using the system, the default
manoeuvre proposed by the system is
assistance in exiting a parallel parking
space. In other cases, the default ma-
noeuvre can be set from the multifunc-
tion screen.
Operation
Parking
As long as the vehicle speed is less
than 20 mph (30 km/h), the system
looks for available parking spaces on
both sides of the vehicle.
Once a space has been found, it is dis-
played on the multifunction screen, in-
dicated by a small letter “P”. So that
the vehicle can detect a space, drive
slowly, with the indicators activated on
the same side as the space, until the
message "Stop” is displayed, along
with a beep.
The space is then indicated on the mul-
tifunction screen by a capital “P”.
– Stop the vehicle;
– select reverse gear.
The
indicator light lights up
on the instrument panel and a beep
sounds;
– release the steering wheel;
– follow the system instructions pro- vided on the multifunction screen. Your speed should not exceed around 4
mph (7 km/h).
Once the warning light
on the
instrument panel goes off and a beep
sounds, the manoeuvre has been com-
pleted.

2.91
ASSISTED PARKING (3/4)
Your speed should not exceed around
4 mph (7 km/h).
Once in position to exit the space, the
system will notify you of the end of the
manoeuvre.
Once the warning light
on the
instrument panel goes off and a beep
sounds, the manoeuvre has been com-
pleted.
Suspending the manoeuvreThe manoeuvre is suspended in the fol-
lowing circumstances:
– you take control of the wheel;
– a door or the boot is opened;
– the vehicle is at a standstill for too long;
– an obstacle in the direction of move- ment prevents the manoeuvre from
being completed;
– the engine will stop.
Once the warning light
on the
instrument panel goes off and a beep
sounds, the manoeuvre has been sus-
pended. To resume the manoeuvre,
press and hold the system activation
switch. In this case, the reason for suspending
the manoeuvre will be displayed on the
multifunction screen.
Make sure:
– you have released the steering wheel
and;
– that all doors and the boot are closed, and;
– that no obstacles are in the way of the direction of movement, and;
– that the engine is started.
Cancelling the manoeuvre
The manoeuvre can be stopped in the
following cases:
– by pressing the system activation switch;
– the vehicle speed has exceeded 4 mph (7 km/h);
– you have performed more than ten forwards/backwards movements in
one manoeuvre;
– the parking distance control sensors are dirty or blocked;
– the vehicle wheels have skidded.
Once the warning light
on the
instrument panel goes off and a beep
sounds, the manoeuvre has been com-
pleted.
Exiting a parallel parking space
– Select “Exit parallel parking space” mode;
– activate the direction indicator on the side you wish to go out of;
– press and hold switch 1 (around
2 seconds).
The
indicator light lights up
on the instrument panel and a beep
sounds;
– release the steering wheel;
– go forwards and backwards using the parking distance control system
alerts.

Operation
With the selection lever 1 in position P,
switch on the ignition.
To move out of position P, you must de-
press the brake pedal before pressing
the unlocking button 2.
With your foot on the brake pedal
(warning light
c on the display goes
out), move the lever out of position P.
Only engage D or R when the vehi-
cle is stopped, with your foot on the
brake and the accelerator pedal re-
leased.

The gear engaged is displayed on the
instrument panel B and on the dis-
play A.
Note: press button 2 to go from position
D or N to R or P.
Driving in automatic mode
Put lever 1 into position D.
In most road conditions you will en-
counter, you will not need to touch your
lever again: the gears will change au-
tomatically at the right time and at the
most suitable engine speed because
the automatic system takes into ac-
count the vehicle load and road contour
and adjusts itself to the particular driv-
ing style you have chosen.
Economical driving
When driving, always leave the lever
in position D, keeping the accelerator
pedal lightly depressed to ensure auto-
matic gear changes at a lower engine
speed.
Accelerating and overtaking
Depress the accelerator pedal firmly
and fully (so that it goes beyond the
kickdown point).
This will enable you to change down
to the optimum gear within the
engine range.
