WARNING
If you call up the stored speed and this dif-
fers from your current speed, the vehicle
will accelerate. If you do not know the
stored speed, the vehicle can accelerate
unexpectedly. There is a risk of an acci-
dent.
Before you call up the stored speed, pay
attention to traffic conditions. If you do
not know
the stored speed, store the desired
speed again.
Cruise control is used in order to drive lon-
ger at a constant speed. The limiter helps to
avoid exceeding a stored speed.
The driver is responsible for driving the
vehicle in a safe manner, controlling the
vehicle speed and braking in good time.
The two driver assist systems require the fol-
lowing:
R
favourable weather and good visibility
R
good road and traffic conditions
The cruise control and limiter systems do not
brake automatically.
R
Reduce the vehicle speed by applying the
brakes.
R
On long and steep downhill gradients,
downshift to a lower gear in good time.
Cruise control is interrupted when the fol-
lowing occur:
R
braking (including the parking brake)
R
accelerating
R

intervention
On an uphill gradient or when accelerating
briefly, cruise control may interrupt speed
regulation. Afterwards, the set speed is
applied again.
On downhill slopes, the limiter can exceed
the set speed. In this case, the stored speed
flashes in the display and a warning tone
sounds.
Cruise control is ready for use at speeds
above 30 km/h. With the limiter, speeds of
30 km/h and over can be set as the maximum
speed.
Cruise
control
and limiter cannot be activa-
ted at the same time.
