and setting a speed)

With the symbol displayed (CC is in
standby mode), press the
button (2) on
the left-side steering wheel keypad.

maintain the vehicle's current speed.

Changing Cruise Control speed
Changing a set speed
Function buttons and symbols (generic illustration)
–
Change a set speed by pressing the (1)
or — (3) buttons briefly or by pressing and
holding them:
•
Press briefly: changes speed in
+/– 5 mph (+/– 5 km/h) increments.
Each press changes the vehicle's speed
by +/– 5 mph (+/– 5 km/h).
•
Press and hold: changes the speed
+/– 1 mph (+/– 1 km/h) at a time.
Release the button when the set speed
indicator (4)/(6) has moved to the desired
speed.
If speed is increased by pressing the accelerator
pedal before the
button is pressed, the vehi-
cle's speed when the button is pressed will
become the set speed assuming that the accel-
erator pedal is still depressed when the button is
pressed.
A temporary increase in speed, such as when
passing another vehicle, does not affect the CC
set speed. The vehicle will return to the set speed
when the accelerator pedal is released. Always
observe posted speed limits.
Engine braking instead of applying the
brakes
CC regulates speed by applying the brakes
lightly. To avoid a loss of speed when driving
down hills, use the engine braking function
instead of letting the CC apply the brakes. In this
situation, the driver can temporarily deactivate the
CC braking function.
To do so:
–
Press the accelerator pedal approx. halfway
down and release it.
> CC will automatically deactivate the auto-
matic brake function and will then only
use the engine braking function.
