78 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE
The speed control allows you to drive in a more
relaxed manner, for example over long distances, as it
automatically maintains the set speed by actively
regulating the throttle setting.
The speed control lever on the steering column is used
to activate and operate the speed control.
NOTE: The responsibility for the driving speed is
always that of the driver. The cruise control is only an
aid for the driver.
NOTE: A change of gear does not shut off the cruise
control.
Every speed traveled above 25 mph (40 km/h) can be
set.
Once the speed is set, it is maintained constant by the
speed control, the accelerator pedal can be released.
Setting momentary speed
Briefly push speed control lever up (1) or down (2).
Cancel speed control
Push speed control lever forwards (3) or step on the
brake pedal.
Increase set speed
Push up speed control lever (1) briefly – speed increase
of 0.6 mph (1 km/h) each time.
To increase speed steadily = hold the speed control
lever in the push-up position.
WARNING!
Leaving the Speed Control on when not in use is
dangerous. You could accidently set the system or
cause it to go faster than you want. You could lose
control and have an accident. Always turn the
system off when you are not using it.
