Driving
Pressing and holding button 2 or
3 results in a rapid change in the speed
of the vehicle.
Dashes are displayed (flashing, initially, then
fixed) in the event of a cruise control system
malfunction.
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Adaptive Cruise Control
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids and to
Cruise control - particular recommendations.
This system automatically maintains the speed
of your vehicle at a value which you set (speed
setting), while keeping a safe distance from the
vehicle in front (target vehicle), and which has
been set beforehand by the driver. The system
automatically manages the acceleration and
deceleration of the vehicle.
As a precaution, we recommend setting
a cruise speed fairly close to the current
speed of your vehicle, to avoid any sudden
acceleration or deceleration of the vehicle.
Drive Assist Plus
Only available on versions with the EAT8
automatic gearbox and gear selector.
This system automatically adjusts the speed and
corrects the trajectory, using the Adaptive Cruise
Control with Stop & Go function in conjunction
with the Lane Positioning Assist.
To modify the cruise speed setting using the
speed suggested by the Speed Limit Recognition
and Recommendation shown on the instrument
panel:
► Press button 5 once; a message is displayed
to confirm the memorisation request.
► Press button 5 again to save the suggested
speed.
With the Stop & Go function, the system
manages the braking until the vehicle comes to a
complete stop and the restarting of the vehicle.
These two functions must be activated and in
operation.
This system is especially suitable for driving on
motorways and main roads.
For more information on Adaptive Cruise
Control and Lane Positioning Assist, refer to
the corresponding sections.
The speed is immediately shown on the
instrument panel as the new speed setting.
To do so, it has a camera located at the top of
the windscreen and, depending on version, a
radar located in the front bumper.
Switching off
► Turn the thumbwheel 1 to the "OFF" position:
the cruise control information disappears from
the screen.
The system assists the driver by acting
on the steering, acceleration and braking,
within the limits of the laws of physics and the
capabilities of the vehicle. Certain road
infrastructure elements or vehicles present on
the road may not be properly seen or may be
poorly interpreted by the camera and radar,
resulting in an unexpected change in
direction, a lack of steering correction and/or
inappropriate management of acceleration or
braking.
Primarily designed for driving on main
roads and motorways, this system only
works with moving vehicles driving in the
same direction as your vehicle.
Malfunction
If the driver operates a direction indicator
to overtake a slower vehicle, the cruise
control allows the vehicle to temporarily
approach the vehicle in front to assist the
