tainingthe speed is dependent on theroad sur‐
face conditions and thedownhill gradient and
cannot thereforebeguaranteed in all situations.
Youcan setthe speed depending on thegear
rangetobetween 2mph (4 km/h) and 11 mph
(18km/h) using thebrake and accelerator pedals
or therockerswitchonthe steering wheel.
DSR automaticallycontrols in thefollowing situa‐
tions:
R
If thevehicle is stationary, or its speed is less
than 2mph (4 km/h) ,the speed is setto
2mph (4 km/h)oritisset to theminimum
speed forthe respectivegear range.
R
If youdrive faster than 11 mph(18 km/h) off-
road, DSRswitches to standbymode.DSR
remains activated, but does notbrake auto‐
matically.
R
If youdrive downhill slowerthan 11 mph
(18km/h), DSRsetsthe speed to theprevi‐
ously setspeed.
R
If youdrive faster than 28 mph(45 km/h),
DSR switches offautomatically.
Activating/deactivatingDSR
ActivatingDSR
Youcan activateDSR when thevehicle is station‐
aryormoving.
#
Press theupper section of switch 1.
#
Brakeoracceleratethe vehicle to thedesired
speed between 2mph (4 km/h) and 11 mph
(18km/h).
#
Release thebrake or acceleratorpedal.
The current speed is stored. When stationary,
2mph (4 km/h) or theminimum possible
speed foreachgear rangeisstored. DSR
maintains thestoredspeed on thedownhill
gradient and brakes automatically.
When DSR is activated and thevehicle pulls
away,accelerates or brakes on an incline, the
speed setcorresponds to thespeed at whichthe
acceleratororbrake pedal is released or the
rocker switchispressed during DSR regulation.
This is onlythe case if youare notdrivingfaster
than 11 mph(18 km/h).

Setting thespeed while driving downhill
Youcan setthe speed to between 2mph
(4 km/h) and, depending on thegear range, up to
11 mph(18 km/h) using thebrake and accelera‐
torpedals or therockerswitchonthe steering
wheel.
