CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: limiter function
1
Switching on
Press switch 1 on the side showing
Ð
. The indicator light on the instru-
ment panel will come on.
Limiting the speed
At a steady speed (above 20 mph (30
km/h)), press switch 2 (+): the speed is
stored.
The system is designed in such a
way that it is possible to detect a dif-
ference between the programmed
speed and the speed shown on the
instrument panel.

Driving
When a limit speed has been stored,
if this speed is not reached the vehicle
behaves in a similar way to a vehicle
without the speed limiter function.
Once you have reached the stored
speed, no effort on the accelera-
tor pedal will allow you to exceed
the programmed speed except in an
emergency (refer to information on
"Exceeding the limit speed").

Varying the limit speed
You can vary the limit speed by press-
ing switch 2 repeatedly to increase the
speed or switch 3 (-) to decrease it.
Exceeding the limit speed

In the event of an emergency
It is possible to exceed the limit speed
at any moment. To do this: press the
accelerator pedal firmly and fully
(beyond the kickdown point).
Whilst the speed is being exceeded,
the cruising speed displayed on the in-
strument panel flashes.
When the emergency has passed, re-
lease the accelerator pedal: the speed
limiter function will return as soon as
you reach a speed lower than the limit
speed before the emergency.
The speed limiter function is
in no way linked to the brak-
ing system.
