Peugeot 308: Speed limiter

For more information, refer to the General recommendations on the use of driving and manoeuvring aids.

This system prevents the vehicle from exceeding the speed programmed by the driver (speed setting).

The speed limiter is switched on manually.

The minimum speed setting is 19 mph (30 km/h).

The speed setting remains in the system memory when the ignition is switched off.

Steering-mounted controls

1. Speed limiter selection
2. Switch on/pause the speed limiter at the previously saved speed setting
3. Increase/Decrease the speed setting
4. Activate the speed limiter at the previously saved speed setting
   Use the speed suggested by the Road signs recognition function

For more information on the Road signs recognition function, refer to the corresponding section.

Information displayed on the instrument panel

5. Speed limiter mode selection indication
6. Speed limiter on (green)/pause (grey) indication
7. Speed setting value
8. Speed suggested by the Road signs recognition function (depending on version)

Switching on/Pausing

► Press 1-LIMIT to select the speed limiter mode; the function is paused (grey).

► If the limit speed setting is suitable (most recent speed setting programmed in the system), press 2-I I> or 4-OK to switch the speed limiter on (green).

► Pressing 2-I I> again temporarily pauses the function.

When the speed setting remains below the vehicle's speed for a prolonged period of time, an audible warning is emitted.

Adjusting the speed setting

You do not have to switch the speed limiter on in order to set the speed.

To change the speed setting using the vehicle's current speed:

► For steps of +/- 1 mph (1 km/h), make successive short presses upwards/downwards on 3 to increase/decrease.

► For steps of +/- 5 mph (5 km/h), press and hold upwards/downwards on 3 to increase/ decrease.

When the function is activated, the limit speed value can be changed using the speed suggested by the Road signs recognition function displayed on the instrument panel:

- When passing the sign:

► Press 4-OK to save the suggested speed.

This value is then immediately shown as the new speed setting on the instrument panel.

- After passing the sign:

► Press 4-OK. The message "OK?" is displayed to confirm the request to save.

► Press 4-OK again to save the suggested speed. The new speed setting value is displayed on the instrument panel.

Temporarily exceeding the speed setting

► Fully depress the accelerator pedal.

The speed limiter is temporarily deactivated and the displayed speed setting flashes.

► Release the accelerator pedal to return to below the speed setting.

When exceeding the speed is not due to the driver's action (e.g. in case of a steep slope), an audible signal is triggered immediately.

On a steep descent or in the event of sharp acceleration, the speed limiter will not be able to prevent the vehicle from exceeding the speed setting.

If necessary, apply the brakes to control your vehicle's speed.

When the vehicle speed returns to the speed setting level, the speed limiter operates again: the speed setting display becomes fixed again.

Off

► Press 1-LIMIT: the speed limiter information display disappears.

Malfunction

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.
