Cruise control system (CCS)
Introduction
The cruise control system (GRA) helps main-
tain a const
ant speed set by you.
Speed range
The cruise control system is available when
driving in forward gear at a speed of over ap-
prox. 20 km/h (15 mph).
Temporarily switching off the cruise con-
trol
The saved speed can be exceeded at any
time, e.g. for overtaking. The cruise control is
suspended during acceleration and is then
resumed with the saved speed.
Status display
When the cruise control system is switched
on, the instrument cluster display shows the
saved speed and the system status:
It lights up grey
The cruise control system is switched on, but regula-
tion is not active
.
It lights up green
The cruise control system is switched on and regula-
tion is active
.
If there is no speed saved, the instrument
cluster displ
ay shows instead of speed.
Changing gears
As soon as the clutch pedal is depressed,
regulation is suspended and resumes once
the gear change has been made.
Driving down slopes
Shift into a low gear before descending a
long hill. This makes use of engine braking
and relieves the brakes.
WARNING
If it is impossible to drive with sufficient
braking dist
ance and at a constant speed,
using the cruise control system may cause
accidents and serious injuries may occur.
●
Do not use Travel Assist when visibility is
bad, on steep roads, on windy roads or in
slippery circumstances (such as snow, ice,
rain or loose gravel), or on flooded roads.
