Cruise control
Principle
With the Cruise Control, a set speed can be ad‐
justed using the buttons on the steering wheel.
The system maintains the set speed. The sys‐
tem accelerates and brakes automatically as
needed.
General information
The system can be activated starting at
20 mph/30 km/h.
Depending on the settings, the cruise control
settings may change under certain conditions.
Safety information
Warning
The system cannot serve as a substitute for the
driver’s personal judgment in assessing the
traffic situation. Based on the limits of the sys‐
tem, it cannot independently react to all traffic
situations. There is a risk of accident. Adjust
driving style to traffic conditions. Watch traffic
closely and actively intervene where appropri‐
ate.
Warning
The use of the system can lead to an increased
risk of accidents in the following situations,
for instance:
▷ On winding roads.
▷ In heavy traffic.
▷ On slippery roads, in fog, snow, or wet
conditions, or on a loose road surface.
There may be a risk of accident or risk of dam‐
age to property. Only use the system if driving
at constant speed is possible.
Warning
The set speed can be incorrectly adjusted or
called up by mistake. There is a risk of accident.
Adjust the set speed to the traffic conditions.
Watch traffic closely and actively intervene
where appropriate.
