WARNING
After use, always switch off the speed limit-
er to pre
vent the speed being regulated
against your wishes.
●
The speed limiter does not relieve the
driver of their responsibility to drive at the
appropriate speed. Do not drive at high
speed if not necessary.
●
Using the speed limiter under adverse
weather conditions is dangerous and can
cause serious accidents, e.g. aquaplaning,
snow, ice, leaves, etc. Only use the speed
limiter when the status of the road and the
weather conditions allow it.
●
When driving downhill, the speed limiter
cannot limit the vehicle speed. Its speed
will increase due to its own weight. In this
case, select a lower gear or use the foot
brake to slow the vehicle.
Note
●
Different v
ersions of the instrument panel
are available and therefore the versions
and instructions on the display may vary.
●
If when switching the ignition off, the
cruise control system (CCS), the adaptive
cruise control (ACC) or the speed limiter
were switched on, then the cruise control
system or the adaptive cruise control will
automatically switch themselves on when
the ignition is back on. However, no speed
will be stored. The last set speed of the
speed limiter will be stored.
