Cruise control maintains the speed of the
vehicle for you.
Use cruise control if road and traffic condi-
tions make it appropriate to maintain a
steady speed for a prolonged period. You
can set any speed above 20 mph
(30 km/h) in 1-mph increments
(1-km/h increments).
i The increments for setting the speed and
the threshold values for switching on or automat-
ically switching off cruise control depend on the
digital speedometer setting, mph or km/h
(

Cruise control
G Warning
The cruise control function cannot take ac-
count of road and traffic conditions.
Always pay attention to road and traffic
conditions, even when cruise control is acti-
vated.
Cruise control is only an aid designed to as-
sist driving. You are responsible for the vehi-
cle's speed and for braking in good time.
If there is a change of drivers, advise the new
driver of the cruising speed that is stored.
G Warning
Do not use cruise control:
O if road and traffic conditions do not per-
mit a constant driving speed to be main-
tained (e.g. heavy traffic or winding
roads). You could otherwise cause an ac-
cident.
O on slippery roads. The drive wheels may
lose their grip when braking or accelerat-
ing and the vehicle could skid
O when visibility is poor, e.g. in fog, heavy
rain or snow
