Cruise control - "CRUISE"
System which automatically maintains the speed of the vehicle at the value programmed by the driver, without any action on the accelerator pedal.
Switching on the cruise control requires a
minimum vehicle speed of 25 mph (40 km/h).
As well as engagement of:
-
fourth gear or higher on a manual gearbox,
-
second gear or higher in manual mode on
an automatic gearbox,
-
position D on an automatic gearbox.
The system remains active after changing gear
on vehicles with a manual gearbox and
Stop & Start.
The cruise control is paused by pressing
button 4 or the brake pedal or on triggering of
the ESC system for safety reasons.
It is possible to exceed the programmed speed
temporarily by pressing the accelerator pedal.
To return to the programmed speed, simply
release the accelerator pedal until the
programmed cruise speed is reached again.
Switching off the ignition cancels any
programmed speed value.
The cruise control system cannot, in any circumstances, replace the need to observe speed limits, nor can it replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
You are advised to keep your feet near the pedals at all times.
