General information on CC
The cruise control (CC – Cruise Control) helps
the driver maintain an even speed, resulting in
a more relaxed driving on motorways and long,
straight roads in regular traffic flows.
WARNING
The driver must always be observant with
regard to the traffic conditions and intervene
when the cruise control is not maintaining a
suitable speed and/or suitable distance.
The driver always bears ultimate responsi-
bility for ensuring that the vehicle is driven
safely.
