Changing the
programmed
speed

Switching the system off

Operating fault

Cancelling the programmed
speed setting

When the vehicle becomes stationary,
after switching off the ignition, the
system no longer memorises a speed.

There are two methods of memorising
a speed higher than the previous one:

-

Place the dial in position 0 or
switch off the ignition to switch
everything off.

Good practice

Without using the accelerator
-

Press the SET + button.

A brief press increases the speed by 1 mph (km/h).
A maintained press increases the speed

in steps of 5 mph (km/h).

Using the accelerator
-

Exceed the memorised speed until
the speed required is reached,

-

Press the SET + or SET - button.

To memorise a speed lower than the previous one:
-

Press the SET - button.

A brief press decreases the speed by 1 mph (km/h).
A maintained press decreases the speed in steps of

5 mph (km/h).

The programmed speed setting is
cleared and replaced by three dashes.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a

qualified workshop to have the system

checked.

When changing the programmed
speed setting by means of a
maintained press, pay attention as
the speed can increase or decrease
rapidly.
Do not use the cruise control on

slippery roads or in heavy traffic.
In the event of a steep slope, the cruise
control cannot prevent the vehicle from
exceeding the programmed speed
setting.
In any event, the cruise control cannot
replace the need to observe the speed
limits and the need for vigilance on the
part of the driver.
It is advisable to keep your feet near
the pedals.
To avoid any jamming under the
pedals:
- ensure that the mat and its fixings

on the floor are positioned correctly,

-

never place one mat on top of
another.

The speed of the vehicle responds to
the pressure of the driver's foot, up
to the the accelerator pedal's point of
resistance, which indicates that the
programmed speed has been reached.
However, pressing the pedal beyond

this point of resistance to the floor

allows the programmed speed to be
exceeded. To resume use of the limiter,
simply reduce the pressure on the
accelerator pedal gradually and return
to a speed below that programmed.
Adjustments can be carried out
when stationary, with the engine
running, or with the vehicle moving.

This speed limiter shows the function
selection status in the instrument panel
and displays the programmed speed:

SPEED LIMITER

3. Increase programmed speed

setting.

4. Speed limiter On / Pause.

"This is the selected speed which the
driver does not wish to exceed".
This selection is made with the engine
running while stationary or with the vehicle
moving. The minimum speed which can
be programmed is 20 mph (30 km/h).

Operating fault

The programmed speed is cleared
then replaced by three dashes.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a

qualified workshop to have the system

checked.

Flashing of the speed setting

Good practice
In any event, the speed limiter cannot
replace the need to observe speed
limits, nor can it replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
Always pay attention to the profile

of the road and sharp acceleration
and stay in complete control of your
vehicle.
To avoid any jamming under the
pedals:
- ensure that the mat and its fixings

on the floor are positioned correctly,

-

never place one mat on top of
another.

Exceeding the programmed
speed

Pressing the accelerator pedal in order
to exceed the programmed speed
will have no effect unless you press
the pedal

firmly beyond the point of

resistance.
The limiter is deactivated temporarily

and the programmed speed flashes

accompanied by an audible signal.
To return to the limiter function, reduce
your speed to below the programmed
speed.

The speed setting flashes:
-

following forcing of the accelerator
point of resistance,

-

when the limiter cannot prevent an
increase in the vehicle speed due

to the profile of the road or on a

steep descent,

-

in the event of sharp acceleration.

-

Place the switch in position 0 or
switch off the ignition to switch the
system off.

The last programmed speed remains in
the memory.

Good practice

For maximum cooling or heating of the
passenger compartment, it is possible

to exceed the value 15 by turning until

LO is displayed or the value 27 by
turning until HI is displayed.
On entering the vehicle, the inside
temperature may be much colder (or
warmer) than is comfortable. There is
no advantage in changing the value
displayed in order to quickly reach the
level of comfort required. The system
will use its maximum performance to
reach the comfort value set.

Automatic operation

AUTO comfort programme
This is the normal air conditioning
system operating mode.

Driver or passenger side comfort
value
The value indicated in the screen
corresponds to a level of comfort and
not a temperature in degrees Celsius
or Fahrenheit.

Turn this control to the left
or to the right to decrease or
increase the value. A setting
around the value 21 provides
optimum comfort. However,

depending on your requirements, a
setting between 18 and 24 is usual.

Do not cover the sunshine sensor
located on the dashboard.

Press this button, the AUTO
symbol is displayed.
The system controls the

distribution, the flow and the

intake of air to guarantee

comfort and a sufficient circulation

of air in the passenger compartment
according to the comfort value set. No
further action on your part is required.

Air flow will increase gradually when

the engine is cold, to prevent excessive
distribution of cold air.
For your comfort, the settings are
stored when the ignition is switched off
and are reinstated the next time the
vehicle is started.
The automatic function will no longer
be maintained if you change a setting
manually (AUTO is cleared).

GOOD PRACTICE

Vents

"Leave them open"
For optimum distribution and diffusion
of hot or cool air in the passenger
compartment, there are adjustable
central and side vents which can
be directed sideways (right or left)
or vertically (up or down). For your
comfort while driving, do not close

them and direct the flow of air towards

the windows instead.
Air vents in the footwells and directed
towards the windscreen complete the
equipment.
Do not block the vents located at the
windscreen or the air extractor located
in the boot.

Dust filter, odour filter (activated
carbon)

This filter traps certain dust and limits

odours.
Ensure that this filter is in good

condition and have all of the filter

elements replaced regularly.

Refer to the "Checks" section of
chapter 7.

Air conditioning

In all seasons, the air conditioning
should only be used with the
windows closed. However, if the
interior temperature remains high
after a prolonged period parked in

the sun, first ventilate the passenger

compartment for a few minutes.
Use the AUTO mode as much as
possible as it permits optimised

control of all of the functions: air flow,

passenger compartment comfort
temperature, air distribution, air
intake mode or air recirculation in the
passenger compartment.
Operate the air conditioning system for

5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month,

to keep it in good working order.
If the system does not produce cold air,
do not use it and contact a PEUGEOT

dealer or a qualified workshop.

Automatic mode: visibility
programme
The comfort programme (AUTO) may

not be sufficient to quickly demist or

defrost the windows (humidity, several
passengers, ice).
In this case, select the visibility
programme. The visibility programme
indicator comes on.
It activates the air conditioning, the air

flow and provides optimum distribution

of the ventilation to the windscreen and
side windows.
It deactivates the air recirculation.

It is normal that the condensation
created by the air conditioning system

results in a flow of water which may

form a puddle under the vehicle when
parked.
