Get Driving -> Adaptive Cruise Control Guide for Peugeot 3008 SUV 2020

Driving

This system automatically adjusts the speed

and corrects the trajectory of the vehicle, using

Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop&Go function

in conjunction with Lane Positioning Assist.

These two functions must be activated and in

operation.

For more information on Adaptive Cruise

Control and Lane Positioning Assist, refer to

the corresponding sections.

Cruise control - particular

recommendations.

Primarily designed for driving on main

roads and motorways, this system only

works with moving vehicles driving in the

same direction as your vehicle.

This system automatically maintains the vehicle

speed at a value set by the driver (speed

setting), while respecting a safety distance from

the vehicle in front (target vehicle) previously set

by the driver. The system automatically manages

the acceleration and deceleration of the vehicle.

With a manual gearbox, the system slows the

vehicle down as far as a speed of 19 mph (30

km/h).

With the Stop function (with the EAT6 automatic

gearbox), the system manages braking until the

vehicle comes to a complete stop.

With the Stop & Go function (with the EAT8

automatic gearbox), the system manages

braking until the vehicle comes to a complete

stop and restarts the vehicle.

If the driver activates the direction

indicator to overtake a slower vehicle,

cruise control may temporarily reduce the

distance to the target vehicle to facilitate

overtaking, without exceeding the speed

setting.

The system assists the driver by acting

on the steering, acceleration and braking

within the physical limits and capacities of the

vehicle. Certain road infrastructure elements

or vehicles in the surroundings 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.

Steering-mounted controls

The brake lamps come on if the vehicle

is slowed down by the system.

It can be dangerous to drive if the brake

lamps are not in perfect working order.

Primarily designed for driving on main

roads and motorways, this system only

works with moving vehicles driving in the

same direction as your vehicle.

Adaptive Cruise Control

To do this, the system uses a camera ﬁtted at

the top of the windscreen and, depending on

version, a radar ﬁtted in the front bumper.

Pausing/resumption of cruise control

► Press 4 or depress the brake pedal. To

pause cruise control, it is also possible to:

• shift from mode D to N;

• depress the clutch pedal for more than 10

seconds;

• Press the electric parking brake control.

► Press 4 to restart cruise control. Cruise

control may have been paused automatically:

• when the speed of the vehicle goes below 19

mph (30 km/h) with a manual gearbox.

• when the speed of the engine goes below

1100 rpm with a manual gearbox.

Cruise control remains active after

changing gear, regardless of the gearbox

type.

Activating the system (pause)

► With the engine running, turn the thumbwheel

1 downwards to the CRUISE position. Cruise

control is ready to operate (grey display).

When the driver attempts to reactivate

cruise control, after the function has been

paused, the message "Activation not possible,

unsuitable conditions" is brieﬂy displayed if

reactivation is not possible (safety conditions

not met).

Switching on cruise control and setting

the speed

With a manual gearbox, your speed must be

between 19 and 112 mph (30 and 180 km/h).

With an automatic EAT6 gearbox, your speed

must be between 1 and 112 mph (2 and

180 km/h).

With an automatic EAT8 gearbox, your speed

must be between 0 and 112 mph (0 and

180 km/h).

► Press button 2 or 3: the current speed

becomes the speed setting (minimum 19 mph

(30 km/h)) and cruise control is immediately

activated (green display).

Changing the programmed speed setting

with the Speed Limit Recognition and

Recommendation function

• by triggering of the ESC system.

With a manual gearbox, the driver should

depress the accelerator pedal to move oﬀ, then,

when above 19 mph (30 km/h), reactivate the

system by pressing one of the buttons 2, 3 or 4.

With an EAT6 gearbox, following braking that

has brought the vehicle to a complete stop,

the system holds the vehicle stationary; cruise

control is paused. The driver should depress

the accelerator pedal to move oﬀ, then, when

above 1 mph (2 km/h), reactivate the system by

pressing one of the buttons 2, 3 or 4.

► Press 5 to accept the speed suggested by

acceleration or braking of the vehicle.

When moving oﬀ again, watch out for

cyclists, pedestrians and animals, as

they may not be detected properly.

Pay particular attention:

– When motorcycles are present and

when there are vehicles staggered across the

traﬃc lane.

– When entering a tunnel or crossing a

bridge.

– Vehicles in a tight bend.

– When approaching a roundabout.

Operating limits

Cruise control operates by day and night, in dry

weather or moderate rainfall.

Certain situations cannot be managed by the

system and require driver intervention.

Cases not taken into account by the system:

– Pedestrians, cyclists, animals.

– Stationary vehicles (e.g. traﬃc jams,

breakdown).

If any of the following malfunctions

occurs, do not use the system:

– Following an impact on the windscreen

close to the camera or on the front bumper

(versions with radar).

– When following a narrow vehicle.

Reactivate the system when conditions allow.

Situations in which the driver is prompted to

immediately resume control:

For more information, refer to the

General recommendations on the use

of driving and manoeuvring aids.

The driver must hold the steering wheel properly.

When cruise control is activated, the symbol is

displayed in green: by small steering actions,

the system directs the vehicle and keeps it in the

position chosen by the driver, in the traﬃc lane.

This position is not necessarily the centre of the

lane.

► With the Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop &

Go function activated, press this button.

The action is conﬁrmed by:

The driver can feel movements in the steering

wheel.

– The indicator lamp in the button lighting up

green.

– The following symbol being displayed on the

instrument panel.

The colour of the symbol on the instrument panel

depends on the operating status of the system:

(grey colour)

One or more operating conditions is not

met; the system is paused.

The driver can change the position of the vehicle

at any time, by turning the steering wheel, which

suspends the function. The driver positions the

vehicle where they wish to in the lane. When

the driver feels that the vehicle’s position is

appropriate, they maintain it until the function

is reactivated. The system regains control by

regulating on the new deﬁned position.

The system identiﬁes the limits of the traﬃc

lane and steers the vehicle inside this lane to

maintain it in the lateral position chosen by the

driver.

To do this, the system uses a camera placed on

the upper part of the windscreen.

This function is primarily suitable for driving on

motorways and main roads.
