yourvehicleandtheoneinfronttobemaintained.
Principles of operation
Usingaradarwitharangeofabout100metres,
located at the front of the vehicle, this system
detectsavehiclerunninginfrontofyour
vehicle.
It automatically adapts the speed of the vehicle
tothatofthevehicleinfront.
Ifthevehicleinfrontisrunningmoreslowly,
thesystemprogressivelyreducesthespeedof
yourvehicleusingjustenginebraking(asifthe
driver had pressed the "-"button).
Ifyourvehicleistooclosetoorapproaching
tooquicklythevehicleinfront,thedynamic
cruisecontrolisautomaticallydeactivated.
Thedriveristhenalertedbyanaudiblesignal,
accompaniedbyamessage.

"standard" cruise control is done in the Driving
menu.
F In the Driving menu, select the "Driving
assistance" tab, then "Dynamic cruise
control" to activate or deactivate the
dynamiccruisecontrol.
For more information on the Cruise
control,refertothecorresponding

F Place the cruise control
thumbwheelat"CRUISE".
Ifthevehicleinfrontacceleratesorchanges
lane,thedynamiccruisecontrolprogressively
accelerates your vehicle to return to the
programmedspeed.
If the driver operates a direction indicator
totheleft(lefthanddrive)ortheright(right
handdrive),toovertakeaslowervehicle,the
dynamic cruise control allows your vehicle to
temporarily approach the vehicle in front to
assisttheovertakingmanoeuvre,thoughnever
exceedingtheprogrammedspeed.
