The cruise control function can be activated from 12 mph (20 km/h).

Switch to activate and increase the cruising speed (SET/+).

2

Depending on the vehicle, the road sign detection activation switch Road sign detection.

Switching on

Press switch 3 until the light 7 lights up grey on the instrument panel.

The "Cruise Control selected" message appears on the instrument panel accompanied by dashes to indicate that the cruise control function is activated and waiting to store a cruising speed.

Activating cruise control

While the vehicle is moving a steady speed above approximately 12 mph (20 km/h) , depending on the vehicle, press switch6 (SET/˗) or switch 1 (SET/+): the function is activated and the current speed is taken into account.

The cruising speed replaces the dashes. Cruise control is confirmed when the memorised speed and warning light appear in green 7.

If you try to activate the function below 12 mph (20 km/h), depending on the vehicle, the "Invalid Speed" message is displayed and function remains inactive.

Driving

Once a cruising speed is registered and the cruise control function is active, you may lift your foot off the accelerator pedal.

Adjusting the cruising speed

The cruising speed may be changed by repeatedly pressing the:

• switch 6 (SET/˗) to decrease the speed;
• switch 1 (SET/+) to increase the speed.

Note: press and hold one of the switches to modify speed by successive increments

Exceeding the cruising speed

The cruising speed may be exceeded at any time by depressing the accelerator pedal.

While it is being exceeded, the cruising speed flashes on the instrument panel.

Then, release the accelerator pedal: after a few seconds, the vehicle will automatically return to its set cruising speed.

Putting the function on standby

The function is set to standby if you:

• press the switch 4 (0);
• the brake pedal;
• shift to Neutral position.

The cruising speed is stored and displayed in grey on the instrument panel.

Recall the cruising speed

If a speed is stored, it can be recalled, once you are sure that the road conditions are suitable (traffic, road surface, weather conditions, etc.). Press switch 5 (RES) if the vehicle speed is over 12 mph (20 km/h).

When the stored speed is recalled, cruise control activation is confirmed cruising speed being displayed in green and, depending on the vehicle, by illumination of the warning light7.

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 on standby, pressing switch 6 (SET/˗) or switch 1 (SET/+) reactivates the cruise control function without taking the stored speed into account: the current speed of the vehicle is taken into account.

Switching off the function

The cruise control function is interrupted:

• if you press switch 3 until the "Driving assist. deactivated" message appears on the instrument panel. In this case, there is no stored speed;

• you press the switch 3 until the light appears on the display. In this case the speed limiter is selected and there is no stored speed.

The 7 warning light disappears from the instrument panel to confirm that the function has stopped.
