Get Driving -> Adaptive cruise control Guide for Peugeot 3008 SUV Third Generation (2024-2025)

Driving

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.

Cruise control can also be paused

temporarily:

– by pressing the brake pedal.

– automatically, if the electronic stability

control (ESC) system is triggered.

The new speed setting value is displayed on the

instrument panel.

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

In the event of a malfunction, dashes are

displayed ﬂashing and then ﬁxed instead of the

speed setting.

► For steps of +/- 1 mph (1 km/h), brieﬂy

press 2-SET- or 3-SET+ repeatedly.

► For steps of +/- 5 mph (5 km/h), press and

hold 2-SET- or 3-SET+.

Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a

qualiﬁed workshop.

Adaptive cruise control

For more information, refer to the

General recommendations on the use

of driving and manoeuvring aids and the

Speciﬁc recommendations on cruise

control.

Drive Assist Plus

Pressing and holding 2-SET- or 3-SET+

results in a rapid change in the speed of

the vehicle.

Only available on versions with the EAT8

automatic gearbox and drive selector.

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.

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.

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).

For more information on Adaptive cruise

control and Lane positioning assist, refer to

the corresponding sections.

To change the cruise speed setting using the

speed suggested by the Road signs recognition

function displayed on the instrument panel:

► Press 5-MEM once; a message is displayed,

conﬁrming the memorisation request.

► Press 5-MEM again to save the suggested

speed.

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

With the Stop & Go function, the system

manages braking until the vehicle comes to a

complete stop and restarts the vehicle.

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.

Switching on cruise control and setting

the speed

Steering-mounted controls

With a manual gearbox, your speed must be

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

With an EAT8 automatic gearbox or a drive

selector, your speed must be between 0 and

112 mph (0 and 180 km/h).

► Press 2-SET- or 3-SET+: the current speed

becomes the speed setting (minimum 19 mph

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

activated (green display).

► Press 3-SET+ to increase or 2-SET- to

decrease the speed setting (steps of 5 mph

(km/h) if held pressed).

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.

weather or moderate rainfall.

► Take back control of the vehicle

immediately: the system cannot manage the

current driving situation.

"Activation refused, conditions

unsuitable".

The system refuses to activate cruise control, as

the necessary conditions are not fulﬁlled.

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).

– When following a narrow vehicle.

– Vehicles driving in the opposite direction.

Situations where the driver must suspend the

system:

– When a vehicle cuts in sharply between your

vehicle and the one in front.

While the vehicle is immobilised, the

following recommendations apply:

– The driver should not leave the vehicle.

– Do not open the boot.

– Do not drop oﬀ or pick up passengers.

– Do not engage reverse gear.

Some vehicles on the road may be

poorly perceived or interpreted by the

camera and/or the radar (e.g. truck), which

can lead to an incorrect evaluation of

distances and result in inappropriate

acceleration or braking of the vehicle.

When moving oﬀ again, watch out for

cyclists, pedestrians and animals, as

they may not be detected properly.

– Vehicles in a tight bend.

– When approaching a roundabout.

Pay particular attention:

– When motorcycles are present and

when there are vehicles staggered across the

traﬃc lane.

bridge.

Activation/Deactivation

6

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).

The system identiﬁes the edges of the traﬃc lane

and steers the vehicle to keep it inside this lane

and maintain the lateral position chosen by the

driver.

– Brake lamps not working.

To do this, the system uses a camera placed on

the upper part of the windscreen.

This system is particularly suited to driving on

motorways and main roads.

► With Adaptive cruise control with Stop&Go

function activated, press this button.

The action is conﬁrmed by:

– 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.

(green colour)

All operating conditions are met; the

system is active.

If the vehicle has undergone any of the

following modiﬁcations, do not use the

system:

– Carrying long objects on roof bars.

– Towing.

– Front end of the vehicle modiﬁed (for

example by adding long-range headlamps or

painting the front bumper).

Operating conditions

– Adaptive cruise control active.

– Traﬃc lane marked out by lines on both sides.

– ESC system operational.

– ASR system activated.

– Obstructed radar and/or camera.

– No trailer detected.

– No 'space-saver' spare wheel in use.

– Vehicle not subject to strong lateral

acceleration.

– Direction indicators oﬀ upon activation of the

system.

ignition is switched oﬀ.

If the system detects that the driver is not

holding the wheel ﬁrmly enough, it

triggers a series of gradual alerts and then

deactivates itself if there is no response from

the driver.

Cruise control

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.

If the function is suspended due to the

prolonged release of the force holding

the steering wheel, the function must be

reactivated by pressing the button again.

The driver can feel movements in the steering

wheel.

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.

Automatic pause

– Triggering of the ESC.

– Prolonged failure to detect one of the lane

limit markings. In this case, the Lane keeping

assist function can take over, and the system will

reactivate itself once the operating conditions are

met again.

In response to action by the driver:

suspension

Pausing/Suspending the

system

– Activation of the direction indicators.

– Travelling outside the lane limits.

– Too tight a grip on the steering wheel or

dynamic action on the steering wheel.

– Action on the brake pedal (resulting in a pause

until cruise control is reactivated) or accelerator

pedal (suspension for as long as the pedal is

depressed).

The driver must act promptly if they

believe that the traﬃc conditions or the

state of the road surface require their

intervention, by moving the steering wheel to

temporarily suspend system operation. Any

intervention on the brake pedal that causes

– Pausing of Adaptive cruise control.

mud) or multiple (roadworks, surface joints).

– Travelling in a tight bend.

Risk of undesirable operation

Operating limits

The system should be deactivated in the

following situations:

– Driving with a "space-saver" type spare

wheel.

– When towing or with a bicycle carrier

attached to a towing device, particularly when

a trailer is not connected or the trailer is not

an approved type.

– Adverse weather conditions.

– Driving on slippery road surfaces (risk of

aquaplaning, snow, ice).

The system may issue an alert when the

vehicle is travelling on a long, straight

road with smooth road surface even if the

driver thinks they are holding the steering

wheel correctly.

The system may not operate or may produce

unsuitable corrections to the steering in the

following situations:

– Poor visibility (insuﬃcient road lighting,

snowfall, rain, fog).

– Winding roads.

– Presence of a tarmac joint on the road.

– In roadworks or toll booth areas.

– Driving on racing circuits.

126

CarManuals2.com

Driving

The driver can prevent the correction by

ﬁrmly holding the steering wheel

(e.g. during an emergency manoeuvre).

The correction is interrupted immediately if

the direction indicators are operated.

– Driving on a rolling road.

Operating conditions

6

– Vehicle speed between 43 and 112 mph (70

and 180 km/h).

Malfunction

– Road marked with a central dividing line.

– Steering wheel held with both hands.

– Direction indicators oﬀ upon activation of the

system.

In the event of a malfunction, the

Service warning lamp comes on

and this (orange) symbol appears on the

instrument panel, accompanied by the display of

a message and an audible signal.

Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a

qualiﬁed workshop.

While the direction indicators are activated and

for a few seconds after switching them oﬀ, the

system considers that a change of trajectory is

intentional and no correction is triggered during

this period.

– ESC system activated and operational.

The system helps the driver only if there

is a risk of the vehicle unintentionally

wandering from the lane it is being driven in. It

does not manage the safe driving distance,

vehicle speed or braking.

Lane keeping assist

The driver must hold the steering wheel with

both hands so that they can maintain control

when the conditions no longer allow the

system to intervene (e.g. in the event that

the central dividing line marking on the road

surface disappears).

For more information, refer to the

General recommendations on the use

of driving and manoeuvring aids.

The system corrects the vehicle's trajectory by

alerting the driver as soon as it detects a risk of

involuntary lane departure or crossing of a verge

or hard shoulder (depending on version).

To do this, the system uses a camera, placed on

the upper part of the windscreen, identifying the

lane markings on the ground and the side of the

road (depending on version).

Operation

As soon as the system identiﬁes a risk of

involuntarily crossing one of the lane markings

detected on the ground or a lane boundary

(e.g. grass verge), it performs the trajectory

correction necessary to restore the vehicle to its

original lane.

This system is particularly useful on

motorways and main roads.

The driver will notice a turning movement of the

steering wheel.

This warning lamp ﬂashes during

trajectory correction.
