CRUISE CONTROL (1/5)

The cruise control function controls the

engine and braking system to help you

to maintain a driving speed that you

have chosen, known as the cruising

speed.

This cruising speed may be set at any

speed above 19 mph (30 km/h).

2.116

CarManuals2.co

ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL (13/14)

This function is an additional driving aid. It can under no circumstances replace the driver’s responsibility to respect

speed limits and safe distances and to be vigilant.

The driver must always be in control of the vehicle.

The driver must always adapt their speed to the surroundings and driving conditions, regardless of system indications.

Except for lines delimiting lanes, traffic indicators (traffic lights, signs, pedestrian crossings etc.) are not recognised by the

system. These do not trigger any alert or reaction by the system.

The system should under no circumstances be taken to be an obstacle detector or an anti-collision system.

The adaptive cruise control must only be used on a motorway (or multi-lane road separated by a barrier).

System servicing/repairs

- In the event of an impact, the radar and/or camera alignment may be changed and its operation may consequently be af-

fected. Deactivate the system and consult an authorised dealer.

- Any work in the proximity of the radar and/or camera (replacements, repairs, windscreen modifications, paintwork etc.) must

be carried out by a qualified professional.

Only an authorised dealer is qualified to service the system.

Deactivating the function

You must disable the function if:

- the vehicle is travelling on a windy road;

- the vehicle is being towed (breakdowns);

- the vehicle is towing a trailer or a caravan;

- the vehicle is being driven in a tunnel or close to a metallic structure;

- the vehicle arrives at a toll point, a roadwork area or on a narrow lane;

- the vehicle is being driven up or down a very steep slope;

- the visibility is poor (glaring sun, fog etc.);

- the vehicle is being driven on a slippery road surface (rain, snow, gravel, etc.);

- the weather conditions are poor (rain, snow, side winds, etc.);

- the radar area has been damaged (impacts etc.) ;

- the camera area has been damaged (e.g. on the inside or outside of the windscreen);

- the windscreen is cracked or distorted.

In the event of the system behaving abnormally, deactivate it and consult an authorised dealer.

2.117

CarManuals2.co

ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL (14/14)

In the event of system disturbance

Some conditions can disturb or damage the operation of the system, such as:

- the windscreen or radar area is obscured (by dirt, ice, snow, condensation, number plate etc.);

- a complex environment (tunnel etc.);

- poor weather conditions (snow, heavy rain, hail, black ice, etc.);

- poor visibility (night, fog etc.);

- poor contrast between the vehicle preceding it and the surrounding area (e.g. white vehicle in a snowy area etc.) ;

- being dazzled (glaring sun, lights of vehicles travelling in the opposite direction etc.);

- narrow, winding or undulating road (tight bends etc.) ;

- a slower vehicle with a significant difference in speed;

- use of mats not adapted to the vehicle. On the driver’s side, only use mats suitable for the vehicle, attached with the pre-

fitted components, and check the fitting regularly. Do not lay one mat on top of another. There is a risk of wedging the

pedals.

In these cases, the system may wrongly intervene.

Risk of unwanted braking or acceleration.

Many unforeseen situations may affect the system operation. Certain objects or vehicles that can appear in the camera or

radar detection zone may be interpreted by the system incorrectly, possibly leading to inappropriate acceleration or braking.

You should always be attentive to sudden events that might occur while you are driving. Always keep your vehicle

under control by keeping your feet near the pedals, so that you are ready to act in any event.

MOTORWAY AND TRAFFIC ASSISTANT (13/16)

The “Motorway and Traffic Assistant” function is an additional driving aid. This system does not take the place of the

driver.

Therefore, it can under no circumstances replace the driver’s responsibility to respect speed limits and safe distances

and to be vigilant (the driver must always be ready to brake).

The driver must always be in control of the vehicle. The driver must always adapt their trajectory and speed according to the

surroundings and traffic conditions.

The “Motorway and Traffic Assistant” uses the Stop and Go adaptive cruise control function and the Lane Centring function. It

must only be used on a motorway or multi-lane road (separated by a barrier).

It must not be used in heavy traffic, on winding or slippery roads (black ice, aquaplaning, gravel) or during bad weather (fog,

rain, side winds etc.).

There is a risk of accidents.

2.131

CarManuals2.co

MOTORWAY AND TRAFFIC ASSISTANT (14/16)

The “Motorway and Traffic Assistant” function is an additional driving aid. it can under no circumstances replace the

driver's responsibility to respect speed limits and safe distances and to be vigilant.

The driver must always be in control of the vehicle.

The driver must always adapt their trajectory and speed according to the surroundings and driving conditions, regard-

less of system indications.

Except for lines delimiting lanes, traffic indicators (traffic lights, traffic signs except for speed limit signs within the limits of the

system’s detection capacity, pedestrian crossings, etc.) are not recognised by the system. These do not trigger any alert or

reaction by the system.

The “Motorway and Traffic Assistant” uses the Stop and Go adaptive cruise control function and the Lane Centring function.

The system should under no circumstances be taken to be an obstacle detector or an anti-collision system.

The Motorway and Traffic Assistant function must only be used on a motorway or multi-lane road separated by a barrier.

System servicing/repairs

- In the event of an impact, the radar and/or camera alignment may be changed and its operation may consequently be af-

fected. Deactivate the system and consult an authorised dealer.

- Any work in the proximity of the radar and/or camera (replacements, repairs, windscreen modifications, paintwork etc.) must

be carried out by a qualified professional.

Only an authorised dealer is qualified to service the system.

2.132

CarManuals2.co

MOTORWAY AND TRAFFIC ASSISTANT (15/16)

Deactivating the system

You must deactivate the system if:

- the vehicle is travelling on a windy road;

- the vehicle is being towed (breakdowns);

- the vehicle is towing a trailer or a caravan;

- the vehicle is being driven in a tunnel or close to a metallic structure;

- the vehicle arrives at a toll point, a roadwork area or on a narrow lane;

- the vehicle is being driven up or down a very steep slope;

- the visibility is poor (glaring sun, fog etc.);

- the weather conditions are poor (rain, snow, side winds, etc.);

- the vehicle is being driven on a slippery road surface (rain, snow, gravel, etc.);

- the camera area has been damaged (e.g. interior or exterior windscreen area); the windscreen is cracked or distorted;

- the radar area has been damaged (impacts, etc.) ;

- the surface of the steering wheel is damaged or damp.

In the event of the system behaving abnormally, deactivate it and consult an authorised dealer.

2.133

CarManuals2.co

MOTORWAY AND TRAFFIC ASSISTANT (16/16)

Some conditions can disrupt or damage the operation of the system, for example:

- obstruction of the windscreen or the radar area (by dirt, ice, snow, condensation etc.) Frequently check the cleanli-

ness and condition of the windscreen, front wiper blades and front bumper;

- a complex environment (tunnel etc.);

- poor weather conditions (snow, heavy rain, hail, black ice, etc.);

- poor visibility (night, fog etc.);

- poor contrast between the vehicle preceding it and the surrounding area (e.g. white vehicle in a snowy area etc.) ;

- being dazzled (glaring sun, lights of vehicles travelling in the opposite direction etc.);

- narrow, winding or undulating road (tight bends etc.);

- the tar lines detected as a line by the system;

- narrowing/widening lanes;

- road markings which are worn, lacking in contrast or very widely spaced from one another (lines partially erased etc);

- multiple markings on the road (roadworks area, slip roads connecting to adjacent motorways, hard shoulder etc.);

- road signs that do not include an arrow, located in a motorway exit;

- an area with low connectivity that makes it impossible to geolocate the vehicle or maps that are not up-to-date;

- a slower vehicle with a significant difference in speed;

- use of mats not adapted to the vehicle. On the driver’s side, only use mats suitable for the vehicle, attached with the pre-

fitted components, and check the fitting regularly. Do not lay one mat on top of another. There is a risk of wedging the

pedals.

In these cases, the system may wrongly intervene.

- Risk of unwanted braking or acceleration.

- Risk of unwanted, incorrect correction or no correction of trajectory.

Many unforeseen situations may affect the system operation. Certain objects or vehicles that can appear in the camera or

radar detection zone may be interpreted by the system incorrectly, possibly leading to inappropriate acceleration or braking.

You should always be attentive to sudden events that might occur while you are driving. Always maintain your vehi-

cle under control by keeping your feet near the pedals and your hands on the steering wheel, so that you are ready

to act in any event.

REVERSING CAMERA (3/4)

Operating faults

When reverse gear is engaged, if the

system detects an operating fault, a

black screen is displayed temporarily

on the multimedia screen 2.

This may be caused by a fault affecting

the camera or screen (clearness, fixed

image, delayed communication etc.).

If the temporary display of the black

screen persists, please consult an ap-

proved dealer.

The screen shows a reverse mirror

image.
