Cruise Control
Principle
This system allows a desired speed to be set us‐
ing the buttons on the steering wheel. The de‐
sired speed is then maintained by the system. It
does this by automatically accelerating and brak‐
ing the vehicle as necessary.
General
The system can be activated from
30 km/h/20 mph.
Depending on the vehicle setting, the character‐
istics of Cruise Control may change in certain
areas; for example, acceleration may change de‐
pending on the driving mode.
Safety notes
WARNING
The system does not relieve you of your per‐
sonal responsibility to assess the traffic situa‐
tion correctly. Due to system limitations, it can‐
not respond independently and appropriately in
all traffic conditions. There is a risk of accident.
Adapt your driving style to the traffic conditions.
Observe the traffic situation and intervene ac‐
tively if the situation warrants it.
WARNING
The risk of an accident may increase if the sys‐
tem is used in certain situations, such as:
▷ On stretches of road with many corners
and bends.
▷ In heavy traffic.
▷ If the road is icy, if there is fog or snow, in
wet conditions or on a loose road surface.
There is a risk of accident or material damage.
Only use the system if it is possible to drive at a
constant speed.
WARNING
The desired speed may be set incorrectly by
mistake or called up accidentally. There is a risk
of accident. Adjust the desired speed to the
traffic conditions. Observe the traffic situation
and intervene actively if the situation warrants it.
