In the interest of public safety, only use cruise
control if the traffic conditions enable vehicles
to drive at a steady speed and maintain an
adequate safety distance.
Remain vigilant while cruise control is
activated. If you press and hold one of the
speed setting modification buttons, your
vehicle may change speed very abruptly.
When descending a steep hill, the cruise
control system cannot prevent the vehicle
from exceeding the set speed. Brake if
necessary to control the vehicle speed.
On steep climbs or when towing, the set
speed may not be reached or maintained.

setting), while respecting a safety distance from
the vehicle in front (target vehicle) previously set
by the driver. The system automatically manages
the acceleration and deceleration of the vehicle.
With a manual gearbox, the system slows the
vehicle down as far as a speed of 19 mph (30
km/h).
With the Stop & Go function, the system
manages braking until the vehicle comes to a
complete stop and restarts the vehicle.
The system assists the driver by acting
on the steering, acceleration and braking
within the physical limits and capacities of the
vehicle. Certain road infrastructure elements
or vehicles in the surroundings may not be
properly seen or may be poorly interpreted by
the camera and radar, resulting in an
unexpected change in direction, a lack of
steering correction and/or inappropriate
management of acceleration or braking.
The speed is immediately shown on the
instrument panel as the new speed setting.
Switching off
► Turn the thumbwheel 1 to the "OFF" position:
the cruise control information disappears from
the screen.
The brake lamps come on if the vehicle
is slowed down by the system.
It can be dangerous to drive if the brake
lamps are not in perfect working order.
Malfunction
Primarily designed for driving on main
roads and motorways, this system only
works with moving vehicles driving in the
same direction as your vehicle.
In the event of a malfunction, dashes are
displayed flashing and then fixed instead of the
speed setting.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
To do this, the system uses a camera fitted at
the top of the windscreen and, depending on
version, a radar fitted in the front bumper.
Adaptive cruise control
Primarily designed for driving on main
roads and motorways, this system only
works with moving vehicles driving in the

Drive Assist Plus
Only available on versions with the EAT8
automatic gearbox and drive selector.
This system automatically adjusts the speed
and corrects the trajectory of the vehicle, using
Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop&Go in
conjunction with Lane Positioning Assist.
If the driver activates the direction
indicator to overtake a slower vehicle,
cruise control may temporarily reduce the
distance to the target vehicle to facilitate
recommendations.
This system automatically maintains the vehicle
speed at a value set by the driver (speed
