To temporarily deactivate the speed limiter
and set it in standby mode:
Press .

mark (5) changes colour from GREEN
to WHITE (Digital) or from WHITE to
GREY (Analogue) and the driver can
temporarily exceed the set maximum
speed.
The speed limiter is reactivated with
one press on
. The mark (5) then
changes colour from WHITE to GREEN
(Digital) or GREY to WHITE (Analogue)
and the car's maximum speed is lim-
ited again.
Temporary deactivation with the
accelerator pedal
The speed limiter can also be set in standby
mode with the accelerator pedal, e.g. for rap-
idly accelerating the car out of a situation:
Depress the accelerator pedal fully.
> The combined instrument panel shows
the stored maximum speed with a col-
oured mark (5) and the driver can tem-
porarily exceed the set maximum
speed – the mark (5) changes colour
from GREEN to WHITE (Digital) or
WHITE to GREY (Analogue) during that
time.
The speed limiter is automatically reac-
tivated after the accelerator pedal is
released and the car's speed is slowed
down to below the selected/stored
maximum speed - the mark (5)
changes colour from WHITE to GREEN
(Digital) or GREY to WHITE (Analogue)

Speed limiter* - alarm for speed
exceeded
A (Speed Limiter) can be regarded as a
reverse cruise control - the driver regulates
the speed using the accelerator pedal but is
prevented from accidentally exceeding a
pre-selected/set speed by the speed limiter.
On steep roads the speed limiter's engine
braking effect may be inadequate and the
selected maximum speed is exceeded. The
driver is alerted about this with an acoustic
signal. The signal is active until the driver has
slowed to below the selected maximum
speed.
NOTE
The alarm is only activated after 5 seconds
if the speed has been exceeded by at least
3 km/h provided that none of the buttons
or has been depressed during the
last half minute.
