The

warning light disappears from
the instrument panel to confirm that
the function has stopped.
Putting the cruise control
on standby or switching
it off does not cause a
rapid reduction in speed:
you must brake by pressing the
brake pedal.
Adaptive cruise control
Based on information from a radar or
camera, the adaptive cruise control
function (or the Stop and Go adaptive
cruise control function on vehicles
equipped with an automatic gearbox)
enables you to maintain the speed
selected, known as the cruising speed,
while keeping a following distance with
the vehicle in front in the same lane.
Depending on the vehicle, when the
"Road Sign Detection" function is
activated 🡺216, the system can adapt
the speed of your vehicle according to
the speed limit signs recognized by the
camera.
Depending on the country and
subscription, the system will use the
camera and the map to adjust the
vehicle speed in advance according to
the context and road incidents
(roundabouts, bends, upcoming road
signs or speed limit zones).
On vehicles fitted with an automatic
gearbox, if the vehicle in front stops,
the Stop and Go adaptive cruise
control function may brake your
vehicle to a complete stop before
allowing the vehicle to move on again.
The system controls acceleration and
deceleration of your vehicle using the
engine and braking system.
The system's maximum range is
approximately 130 metres. This may
vary according to the road conditions
(ground relief, weather conditions, etc.)
According to road conditions (traffic,
weather, etc.), the "Adaptive cruise
control" function can be activated:
– from 0 mph (0 km/h) for vehicles
fitted with an automatic gearbox;
– from 19 mph (30 km/h) for vehicles
fitted with an manual gearbox.
The function is indicated by the
symbol.
Note:
– the driver must observe the
maximum speed limit and safe
distances according to the legislation
in the country where they are driving;
– the adaptive cruise control can brake
the vehicle up to a third of the braking
capacity. Depending on the situation,
the driver may need to brake harder.
The adaptive cruise control
does not trigger an
emergency stop and its
braking capability is limited.
Based on information from a radar or
camera, the Stop and Go adaptive
cruise control function gives you the
option of maintaining a selected
speed, known as the cruising speed,
