Renault CRUISE CONTROL
The cruise control function helps you to maintain your driving speed at a speed that you choose, called the cruising speed. This cruising speed may be set at any speed above 19 mph (30 km/h). The cruise control function is in no way linked to the braking system.
Controls
- Main “On/Off” switch.
- Controls for:
- cruising speed activation, storage and increase (+);
- decreasing cruising speed (-).
- Activation with a recall of saved cruising speed (R).
- Switch the function to standby (with cruising speed saved) (0).
This function is an additional driving aid. The function does not take the place of the driver. Therefore, it can under no circumstances replace the driver’s responsibility to respect speed limits and to be vigilant (the driver must always be ready to brake). Cruise control must not be used in heavy traffic, on winding or slippery roads (black ice, aquaplan- ing, gravel) and during bad weather (fog, rain, side winds etc.).
There is a risk of accidents.
Switching on
Press switch 1 on side
The warning light appears in green, and the message “Cruise control” appears on the instrument panel, accompanied by dashes to indicate that the cruise control function is activated and waiting to store a cruising speed.
Activating cruise control
At a steady speed (above approximately 19 mph (30 km/h)) press switch 2 on the a (+) side: the function is activated and the current speed is stored.
The cruising speed replaces the dashes and cruise control is confirmed by the appearance of the message “Cruise control” and the warning light
If you try to activate the function below 19 mph (30 km/h), the message “Invalid speed” will be displayed and the function will remain inactive.
Driving
Once a cruising speed is memorised and the cruise control function is active, you may lift your foot off the accelerator pedal.
Please note that you are strongly advised to keep your feet close to the pedals in order to react in an emergency.
Adjusting the cruising speed
The cruising speed can be changed by pressing the switch 2 repeatedly:
- on a (+) side to increase the speed;
- on b (-) side to reduce the speed.
The cruise control function is in no way linked to the braking system.
Exceeding the cruising speed
The cruising speed may be exceeded at any time by depressing the accelerator pedal. While overtaking, the cruising speed flashes red on the instrument panel.
Then, release the accelerator: after a few seconds, the vehicle will automatically return to its set cruising speed.
Cruising speed cannot be maintained
If driving up or down a steep gradient, the system is unable to maintain the cruising speed: the stored speed is flashes red on the instrument panel to inform you of this situation.
Putting the function on standby
The function is set to standby if you:
- use the switch 4 (0);
- the brake pedal;
- depress the clutch pedal or shift into neutral if the vehicle has an automatic gearbox.
In these three cases, the cruising speed remains stored and the message “Memorised” accompanied by this speed appears on the instrument panel. Standby is confirmed by the display of the cruising speed in grey and the message “Memorised”.
Returning to the cruising speed
If a speed is stored, it can be recalled, once you are sure that the road conditions are suitable (traffic, road surface, weather conditions, etc.). Press the switch 3 (R) if the vehicle speed is above 19 mph (30 km/h).
When the stored speed is recalled, activation of the cruise control is confirmed by the illumination of the cruising speed in green, along with the message “Check cruise control”.
NB: if the speed previously-stored is much higher than the current speed, the vehicle will accelerate more rapidly to reach this threshold.
When the cruise control function is put on standby, pressing switch 2 on side a (+) reactivates the cruise control function without taking into account the stored speed: it is the speed at which the vehicle is moving that is taken into account.
Switching off the function
The cruise control function is deactivated if you press switch 1: in this case, a speed is no longer stored. The green warning light
disappears from the instrument panel to confirm that the function is off.
Putting the cruise control on standby or switching it off does not cause a rapid reduction in speed: you must brake by depressing the brake pedal.
