LANE DEPARTURE WARNING

(1/3)

This function is a driving aid in the event of the accidental crossing of

a continuous or broken line in the road. However, the function is not in-

tended to replace the driver. The function can be disrupted under certain

conditions, including:

– poor visibility (rain, snow, fog, dirty windscreen, glare of the sun, partially ob-

scured road lines, etc.);

– roads with tight bends;

– closely following a vehicle in the same lane;

– worn road markings, difficult to distinguish or spaced very widely apart;

– narrow roads;

– ...
In this case, the line visibility indicators remain uncoloured on the instrument

panel to indicate that the function will not operate (lines not detected).
Under no circumstances should this function replace the driver’s care or respon-

sibility whilst performing manoeuvres.

This system notifies the driver when

they accidentally cross a continuous or

broken line.

This function uses a camera attached

to the windscreen, behind the rear-view

mirror.

BLIND SPOT WARNING

(3/4)

Operation

This function will indicate:
– when the vehicle speed is between

approximately 30 km/h (19 mph) and

140 km/h (87 mph);

– when another vehicle is in the blind

spot area and travelling in the same

direction as your vehicle.

If another vehicle is being overtaken,

the indicator 4 will be activated only if

that vehicle remains in the blind spot for

more than one second.

Indicator 4

An indicator light 4 is located on each

door mirror 5.
Note: Clean the door mirrors 5 regu-

larly, so that the indicator lights 4 can

be seen properly.

Display B

The function is activated and has not

detected any vehicles.

Display C

Initial warning: the indicator light 4

shows that a vehicle has been detected

in the blind spot.

Display D

When the direction indicator is activa-

ted, the indicator light 4 flashes when a

vehicle is detected in the blind spot on

the side towards which you are about to

steer. If you cancel the direction indica-

tor, the function will return to the initial

warning (display C).

Operating faults

If the system detects a fault, the mes-

sage “Check blind spot alert” is dis-

played on the instrument panel. Consult

an authorised dealer.
Note: When the engine is started, the

indicator light 4 (display B) flashes

three times. It is normal.

– The system’s detection

range operates according

to a standard lane width. If

you are driving in wide traf-

fic lanes, the system might not

be able to detect a vehicle in the

blind spot.

– The system might be disrupted

momentarily if it is exposed to

strong electromagnetic waves

(as beneath high-tension power

lines) or to very poor weather

conditions (heavy rain, snow,

etc.). Remain aware of driving

conditions.

There is a risk of accidents.

BLIND SPOT WARNING

(4/4)

Because sensors have

been installed in the bump-

ers, any work (repairs, re-

placements, touching up of

paintwork) must be carried out by a

qualified professional.

CRUISE CONTROL-SPEED LIMITER: speed limiter function

(1/3)

Switching on

Press switch 1 on side



. The indica-

tor light



comes on, lit orange, and

the message “Speed limiter” appears

on the instrument panel, accompanied

by dashes to indicate that the speed

limiter function is activated and waiting

to store a limited speed.

To store the current speed, press the

switch 2 on side a (+): the limited speed

will replace the dashes.

The minimum stored speed is 20 mph

(30 km/h).

Controls

1 Main “On/Off” switch.
2 Controls for:

a speed limiter activation, memory

and increase (+);

b decreasing the speed limiter (-).
3 Activation and recall of memorised

limited speed (R).

4 Speed limiter function standby (with

limited speed memory) (O).

The speed limiter function helps you

stay within the driving speed limit that

you choose, known as the limit speed.

If you wish, you can associate the

speed limiter and the “Overspeed

alert” function (please refer to the in-

formation on the “Overspeed alert”

in Section 2).

CRUISE CONTROL-SPEED LIMITER: speed limiter function

(2/3)

Exceeding the limit speed

It is possible to exceed the limit speed

at any time. To do this: press the accel-

erator pedal firmly and fully (beyond

the resistance point).
While the speed is being exceeded, the

speed limiter flashes red on the instru-

ment panel.
Then, release the accelerator: the

speed limiter function will return as

soon as you reach a speed lower than

the stored speed.

Limited speed cannot be maintained
If driving up or down a steep gradient,

the system is unable to maintain the

limited speed: the memorised speed

flashes red on the instrument panel and

a beep sounds at regular intervals to

inform you.

Varying the limit speed

The speed limiter can be changed by

repeatedly pressing the switch 2:
– side a (+) to increase the speed;
– side b (-) to reduce the speed.

Driving

When a limited speed has been stored

and this speed is not reached, driving is

similar to driving a vehicle without the

speed limiter function.
Once you have reached the stored

speed, no effort on the accelera-

tor pedal will allow you to exceed

the programmed speed except in an

emergency (refer to information on

“Exceeding the limit speed”).

The speed limiter function is

in no way linked to the brak-

ing system.

CRUISE CONTROL-SPEED LIMITER: speed limiter function

(3/3)

Recalling the limit speed

If a speed has been saved, it can be re-

called by pressing switch 3 ((R)).

Putting the function on

standby

The speed limiter function is sus-

pended when you press switch 4 (O).

In this case, the speed limit remains

stored and the message “Memorised”

accompanied by this speed appears on

the instrument panel.

Switching off the function

The speed limiter function is deacti-

vated if you press switch 1: in this case

a speed is no longer stored. The orange



warning light and message on the

instrument panel goes out to confirm

that the function is deactivated.

When the speed limiter is put on

standby, pressing side a (+) on

the switch 2 reactivates the func-

tion without taking into account

the stored speed: it is the speed at

which the vehicle is moving that is

taken into account.

Operating principle

The system detects speed limit signs

on the side of the road and displays the

speed limit.

This mainly uses information taken

from the camera 1, attached to the

windscreen behind the rear-view mirror.
Note: Make sure the windscreen is not

obstructed (dirt, ice, snow, etc.).
With the engine running, once you have

activated the system, dashes on the in-

strument panel notify the driver that the

system is running.
When a speed limit sign is detected,

this speed will replace the dashes for

a few seconds, after which the dashes

will come on again until the next speed

limit sign is detected.

OVERSPEED ALERT

(1/3)

The overspeed alert with signage panel

recognition notifies the driver that they

are exceeding the speed limit for the

section of road on which they are cur-

rently travelling.

Once the speed limiter is activated, you

can adjust the speed limiter indication

displayed by the system.
In the event of exceeding the speed

limit, the sign display is modified (the

characters change to red or the circle

around the sign flashes) no notify you.

Special situation
The system does not take into account

exceptional speed limit measures, such

as peak pollution days.

2.56

This function is an additional driving aid. However, 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, re-

gardless of the system indications.
The system enables maximum speed signs to be detected and does not detect

other traffic signage.
The driver should not, however, ignore signs which are not detected by the system

and should as a priority comply with the traffic signage and the highway code.
In the event of poor visibility (fog, snow, frost, etc.), it is possible that the system

may not indicate the correct speed to the driver.
The driver should always adapt their speed to the traffic conditions, regardless of

the system indications.

OVERSPEED ALERT

(3/3)

Operating fault

The system cannot detect the speed

limit if:
– the windscreen is not clean;
– the camera is blinded by the sun;
– there is insufficient visibility (night,

fog, etc.);

– the signs are not legible (snow, etc.)

or are hidden (by another vehicle or

by trees).

2.57

CRUISE CONTROL-SPEED LIMITER: cruise control function

(1/4)

The cruise control function helps you to

maintain your driving speed at a speed

that you choose, called the cruising

speed.
This cruising speed may be set at any

speed above 20 mph (30 km/h).

The cruise control function

is in no way linked to the

braking system.

This function is an addi-

tional driving aid. However,

the function does not take

the place of the driver.

Therefore, it can under no circum-

stances replace the driver’s respon-

sibility to respect speed limits and to

be vigilant (the driver must always

be ready to brake). Cruise control

must not be used in heavy traffic, on

undulating or slippery roads (black

ice, aquaplaning, gravel) and during

bad weather (fog, rain, side winds

etc.).
There is a risk of accidents.

Controls

1 Main “On/Off” switch.
2 Controls for:

a cruising speed activation, storage

and increase (+);

b decreasing cruising speed (-).
3 Activation with recall of saved cruis-

ing speed (R).
