Cruise Control - PEUGEOT Coupe 406 Handbook

Cruise control*
Cruise control
Cruise control enables the vehicle to main-
tain a steady speed programmed by the
driver, regardless of the road characteristics
and without the driver having to touch the
accelerator or brake pedals.
To be stored in the memory, the speed of the
vehicle must be over 25 m.p.h. (40 km/h).
Operation
Press switch 1. The indicator light will come
on.
You can put a speed into the memory.
Pressing the switch again deactivates the
system.
* According to specification
Putting a speed into memory
As soon as you reach the desired speed,
push stalk 2 upwards rapidly. This takes the
speed into memory, and it will be maintained
automatically.
Neutralising the memorised speed
If you wish to neutralise the memorised speed
for a few moments:
- Pull the stalk towards you or press the
brake or clutch pedal.
Recalling the memorised speed
After neutralisation, flick stalk 2 upwards. Your
vehicle will adopt the last memorised speed.

Changing a memorised speed
To memorise a higher speed than the previ-
ous one, keep stalk 2 pressed upwards.
Release it when you have reached the
desired speed.
To memorise a lower speed than the previ-
ous one, keep stalk 2 pressed down. Release
it when you have reached the desired speed.
Cancelling the memorised speed
The speed in the memory is cancelled when
the ignition is switched off or by pressing
switch
1
(the indicator light goes out).
Do not use the cruise control
on slippery roads or in heavy
traffic.
