Driving
When changing the programmed
reference speed by means of a maintained
press, remain vigilant as the speed can
increase or decrease rapidly.
Do not use the cruise control on slippery
roads or in heavy traffic.
When descending a steep hill, the cruise
control system cannot prevent the vehicle
from exceeding the programmed speed.
The cruise control system cannot in
any circumstances replace the need
to observe speed limits or the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
It is advisable to leave your feet near the
pedals.
To avoid any jamming under the pedals:
-
ensure that the mat is positioned and
secured to the floor correctly,
-
never fit one mat on top of another.
Active City Brake
Active City Brake is a driving assistance
system that aims to avoid a frontal collision
or reduce the speed of an impact if the driver
does not react sufficiently (inadequate brake
application).
120
This system has been designed to
improve driving safety.
The driver must always check the traffic
and assess the distance and relative
speed of other vehicles.
Active City Brake cannot in any
circumstances replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
Never look at the laser sensor through
an optical instrument (magnifying glass,
microscope, etc.) at a distance of less
than 10 centimetres: risk of eye injury!
Principle
Using a laser sensor located at the top of the
windscreen, this system detects a vehicle
running in the same direction or stationary
ahead of your vehicle.

If necessary, the vehicle's braking system is
operated automatically to avoid a collision with
the vehicle ahead.
Automatic braking occurs later than if
done by the driver, so as to intervene only
when there is a high risk of collision.
Conditions of activation
Active City Brake functions if the following
conditions are met:
-
the ignition is on,
-
the vehicle is moving forward,
-
the speed is between about 3 and 20 mph
(5 and 30 km/h),
-
the braking assistance systems (ABS,
EBFD, EBA) have not failed,
-
the trajectory control systems (ASR, DSC)
are not deactivated or faulty,
-
the vehicle is not making a sharp turn,
-
the system has not triggered in the last ten
seconds.
