Important note
We recommend only using the device on long, dry stretches of road
requiring few gear changes (e.g. motorways). Do not use the device for
city driving.
Important note
PIT SPEED is a term taken from the motor sports world used by
Ferrari to indicate the speed memorised using the device and does not
endorse inappropriate behaviour on the road which does not comply
with Traffic Regulations.

Activating the device
To activate the device, press control A .
When Cruise Control is activated, a warning lamp lights on the instrument
panel and the message “Cruise Control ON”, together with the specific
symbol, are shown for 5 seconds on the left TFT display.
The device cannot be activated when reverse or 1st gear are engaged.
When going down slopes with the device on, the vehicle speed may be
slightly higher than the memorised speed.
Memorising the speed
Proceed as follows:
●
with the device activated, bring the vehicle to the desired speed by
pressing the accelerator pedal;
●
turn control B clockwise (+) for at least 3 seconds and then release
it: the speed of the vehicle is memorised and you can release the
accelerator pedal.
If necessary, you can accelerate by pressing the accelerator pedal: when
the pedal is released, the vehicle will return to the previously memorised
speed.
Resetting the memorised speed
If the device has been turned off by pressing the brake pedal, the
memorised speed can be reset as follows:
●
gradually accelerate until the vehicle reaches a speed that is close to
the memorised speed;
●
quickly press control B .
Increasing the memorised speed
This can be done in two ways: by pressing the accelerator and memorising
the new speed reached or by turning control
B clockwise (+).
One turn of the control corresponds to an increase in speed of about
2 km/h; if the control is kept turned on the other hand, the speed
continually increases.
Reducing the memorised speed
This can be done in two ways: by deactivating the device and then
memorising the new speed or by turning control
B counterclockwise (-).
