Cruise Control - CITROEN DS5 Owner's Handbook Manual

Cruise control

System which automatically maintains the
speed of the vehicle at the value programmed
by the driver, without any action on the
accelerator pedal.
Operation
The cruise control is switched on manually:
it requires a minimum vehicle speed of 25 mph
(40 km/h) and engagement of:
- fourth gear on the manual gearbox,
- second gear on the electronic gearbox
system or automatic gearbox, in sequential
driving mode,
- position A on the electronic gearbox
system or D on the automatic gearbox.
The cruise control is switched off manually
or by pressing the brake or clutch pedal or on
triggering of the "electronic stability control"
system for safety reasons.
It is possible to exceed the programmed speed
temporarily by pressing the accelerator pedal.
To return to the programmed speed, simply
release the accelerator pedal.
Switching off the ignition cancels any
programmed speed value.
