Driving
Use the cruise control only where the
driving conditions allow running at a
constant speed and at an adequate safe
distance.
Do not activate the cruise control in urban
areas, in heavy traffic, on winding or steep
roads, on slippery or flooded roads, or in
conditions of poor visibility (heavy rain,
fog, falling snow, etc.).
In some circumstances, it may not be
possible to maintain or reach the cruise
speed set: towing, vehicle heavily loaded,
steep climb.
The use of mats not approved by
PEUGEOT may interfere with the
operation of the cruise control.
To avoid any risk of jamming the pedals:
- ensure that the mat is positioned
correctly,
- do not fit one mat on top of another.
Dynamic cruise control
with Stop function
This system provides two functions:
- automatic regulation of the
vehicle speed at the value
programmed by the driver,
- automatic adjustment of the
distance between your vehicle
and the vehicle in front, which
can cause even the complete
stoppage of your vehicle.
It manages the acceleration and deceleration
of the vehicle by automatically acting on the
engine and the braking system.
For this purpose, a radar is located in the front
bumper.
Principles
Primarily designed for driving on main
roads and motorways, this system only
works on moving vehicles driving in the
same direction as your vehicle.
It automatically adapts the speed of your
vehicle to that of the vehicle in front, to maintain
a constant distance.
If the vehicle in front is running more slowly, the
system slows, or even stops your vehicle, using
engine braking and the braking system.
If the vehicle in front accelerates or changes
lane, the cruise control progressively
accelerates your vehicle to return to the
programmed speed.
If the driver operates a direction indicator to
overtake a slower vehicle, the cruise control
allows your vehicle to temporarily approach
the vehicle in front to assist the overtaking
manoeuvre, though never exceeding the
programmed speed.
