Setting the programmed speed
The programmed speed can be set:
●
Move the lever to the pressure point
to increase speed in small increments of 1
km/h (1 mph).
●
Move the lever upwards to increase in
increments of 10 km/h (5 mph).
●
Press the button

to reduce
speed in small incr
ements of 1 km/h (
1 mph).
●
Move the lever downwards to reduce
in increments of 10 km/h (5 mph).
To change the programmed speed without
interruption, keep the lever pressed in the di-
rection

Emergency brake assistance
system (Front Assist)*
Introduction
Fig. 155
On the instrument panel display: ad-
v
ance w
arning indications.
The objective of the system is to prevent
head-on collisions against ob
jects that may
be in the v
ehicle’s path or minimise the con-
sequences of such impacts.
Depending on several factors and how criti-
cal the situation is, the system operates in a
staggered manner. First it warns the driver,
and if the driver’s reaction does not occur or
is insufficient, it activates independent emer-
gency braking.
The function is intended to prevent collisions
with parked vehicles or vehicles in the same
lane travelling in the same direction, or with
pedestrians crossing the vehicle’s path. It
may fail to activate in other hazard situa-
tions
›››
Front Assist is active between 4 km/h
(2.5 mph) and 250 km/h (
156 mph). Depend-
ing on a r
ange of conditions, some of the
functions described below are omitted to op-
timize the behaviour of the system.
Front Assist is a driving assistance function
that can never replace the driver’s atten-
tion.
Safety distance warning
If the system detects that you are driving too
close to the vehicle in front, it will warn the
driver with this indication on the instrument
panel display .
The timing of the warning varies according to
other factors: driver behaviour and speed.
