Rear Fender Indicators
When the reverse gear is selected, the
rear fender indicators will extend
upward from the rear corners of the
fenders.
The rear fender indicators retract
delayed when shifting out of reverse.
They retract immediately when turning
key in steering lock to position 0.
Cruise Control
Any given speed above approximately
25 mph (40 km/h) can be maintained
with the cruise control by operating the
lever.
1 Accelerate and set:
Lift lever briefly to set speed. Hold
lever up to accelerate.
2 Decelerate and set:
Depress lever briefly to set speed.
Hold lever down to decelerate.
Normally the vehicle is accelerated to
the desired speed with the accelerator.
Speed is set by briefly pushing the
lever to position 1 or 2. The accelerator
can be released.
The speed can be increased (e.g. for
passing) by using the accelerator. As
soon as the accelerator is released, the
previously set speed will be resumed
automatically.
If a set speed is to be increased or
decreased slightly, e.g. to adapt to the
traffic flow, hold lever in position 1 or
2 until the desired speed is reached, or
briefly tip the control lever in the
appropriate direction for increases or
decreases in 0.6 mph (1 km/h)
increments. When the lever is released,
the newly set speed remains.
