PEUGEOT 3008 2017 Handbook page 189

Following braking of the vehicle bringing it to
a complete stop, the system holds the vehicle
stationary; the cruise control is paused.
The driver must press the accelerator pedal
to move off again, then reactivate the system
above 19 mph (30 km/h), by pressing button
2, 3 or 4. If the driver takes no action following
the immobilisation, the electric parking brake is
applied automatically after a few minutes.
Operating limits
The system cannot exceed the limits of the
laws of physics.
Certain situations cannot be managed by the
system and require the driver to take back
control of the vehicle.
Cases of non-detection by the system:
- Pedestrians, some cyclists, animals.
- Stationary vehicles (traffic jam, breakdown,
etc.).
- Vehicles crossing the road lanes.
- Vehicles driving in the opposite direction.
When the driver must suspend the cruise
control system:
- Vehicles in a tight bend.
- When approaching a roundabout.
- When following a narrow vehicle.
Reactivate cruise control when conditions
permit.
Cases where the driver is encouraged to
take back control immediately:
- Excessively sharp deceleration of the
vehicle in front of you.
- When a vehicle sharply cuts in between
your vehicle and the one in front.
The system must not be activated in the
following situations:
- Use of the "space-saver" type spare wheel
(depending on version).
- Towing.
- Carrying long objects on roof bars.
- Following an impact on the windscreen
close to the camera or on the front bumper
(versions with radar).
Be particularly careful:
- When motorcycles are present and
when there are vehicles staggered
onto the traffic lane.
- When you enter a tunnel or cross a
bridge.
