Cruise control system
 Introduction
The Cruise Control System (CCS) maintains a set speed without having to ac-
tuate the accelerator pedal. The state where the CCS maintains the speed is
referred to hereinafter as the control.
WARNING
Please take note of the general points relating to the use of assistance sys-
tems » page 61, in chapter General information.

on page 65 first.
Basic requirements for starting control
The CCS is activated.
On vehicles with a manual gearbox, second gear or higher should be en-
gaged.
On vehicles with an automatic transmission, the selector lever is in the D
or S position or in the Tiptronic position.
The current speed is higher than 20 km/h.
This, however, is only possible to the extent permitted by the engine output
and braking power of the vehicle.
WARNING
If the engine output or engine braking effect is insufficient to maintain the
set speed, the driver must assume control of the accelerator and brake
pedals!
