ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL
Based on information from a radar
or camera, the adaptive cruise con-
trol function (or Stop and Go adap-
tive cruise control function on vehicles
equipped with an automatic gearbox)
enables you to maintain the speed se-
lected (known as cruising speed) while
keeping a following distance with the
vehicle in front in the same lane.
On vehicles fitted with an automatic
gearbox, if the vehicle in front stops,
the Stop and Go adaptive cruise control
function may apply the vehicle brakes
to a full-stop before allowing the vehicle
to move-on.
The system controls acceleration and
deceleration of your vehicle using the
engine and braking system.
The system's maximum range is ap-
proximately 150 metres. This may
vary according to the road conditions
(ground relief, weather conditions, etc.).
(1/14)
According to conditions on the road
(traffic, weather etc.), the "Adaptive
cruise control" function can be acti-
vated:
– 0 mph (0 km/h) to 105 mph
(170 km/h) for vehicles fitted with an
automatic gearbox;
– 19 mph (30 km/h) to 105 mph
(170 km/h) for vehicles fitted with a
manual gearbox.
The function is indicated by the
symbol.
Note:
– the driver must observe the maxi-
mum speed limit and safe distances
in the country where they are driving;
– the adaptive cruise control can brake
the vehicle up to a third of the brak-
ing capacity. Depending on the situ-
ation, the driver may need to brake
harder.
The adaptive cruise control does
not trigger an emergency stop and
its braking capability is limited.
This function is an addi-
tional driving aid.
It can under no circum-
stances replace the driver's
responsibility to respect speed limits
and safe distances or to be vigilant.

The driver must always be in con-
trol of the vehicle. The driver must
always adapt their speed according
to the surroundings and traffic con-
ditions. The adaptive cruise control
must only be used on a motorway
(or multi-lane road separated by a
barrier). The cruise control must not
be used in heavy traffic, on wind-
ing or slippery roads (black ice, aq-
uaplaning, gravel) or during bad
weather (fog, rain, side winds etc.).
There is a risk of accidents.
