INCREASING THE MEMORISED SPEED
This can be done in two ways:
❒
by pressing the accelerator and then memorising the
new speed reached;
or
❒
moving the stalk upwards (
+
).
Each operation of the lever will correspond to a slight
increase in speed of about 1 km/h, while keeping the
lever upwards will increase the speed continuously.
REDUCING THE MEMORISED SPEED
This can be done in two ways:
❒
by turning the device off and then storing a new
speed;
or
❒
by moving the stalk downwards (
–
) until reaching the
new speed which will be memorised automatically.
Each movement of the lever will correspond to a slight
reduction in speed of about 1 km/h, while keeping the
lever held downwards will decrease the speed
continuously.
TURNING THE DEVICE OFF
The device can be switched off by the driver in the
following ways:
❒
turning twist switch A to OFF;
❒
switching off the engine;
❒
pressing the brake pedal;
❒
pressing the clutch pedal;
❒
pressing the accelerator pedal; in this case, the
system is not really switched off but the request for
acceleration takes priority. The cruise control is,
however, active and you do not need to press
button RES B-fig. 39 to restore the previous
conditions when you have finished accelerating.
The device is automatically switched off in the following
cases:
❒
if the ABS or ESP systems cut in;
❒
if the car speed drops below the preset limit;
❒
if there is a system failure.
While travelling with the device engaged, do
not put the gear lever into neutral.
WARNING
In the event of malfunction or if the device
fails, turn twist switch A to OFF and contact an
Abarth Dealership.
