The cruise control system allows you to drive
at
a c
on
stant speed of 30 km/h (19 mph) or
higher without having to press the accelera-
tor. However, the speed is only maintained
within the margin permitted by the engine
power and the braking effect of the engine.
The warning lamp lights up on the general
instrument panel if cruise control is switched
on.
WARNING
●
For saf
ety reasons the cruise control sys-
tem must not be used in dense traffic or
where roads conditions are poor (e.g. due to
ice, aquaplaning, loose grit, snow). – Risk of
accident!
●
The programmed speed can only be re-es-
tablished if it is not too high for current traf-
fic conditions.
●
Always switch the cruise control system off
after using it in order to avoid involuntary
use.
CAUTION
●
The cruise c
ontrol cannot maintain a con-
stant speed when the vehicle is moving
downhill. The vehicle tends to accelerate un-
der its own weight. Therefore, shift down or
use the brake pedal in good time to slow the
vehicle.
Note
●
In vehic
les with an automatic gearbox, the
cruise control system cannot be switched on
if the selector lever is in position P, N or R.
●
In vehicles with a manual gearbox, the
cruise control cannot be switched on if first
gear or reverse gear is engaged.
