CHANGING THE SPEED
Increasing speed
After having set the device, the stored
speed can be stored by holding the
SET + button pressed.
Press the SET + button once
: the
set speed will increase by 1 km/h (or by
1 mph when the measurement unit is
set to mph). Each touch of the button
once will increase the speed by 1 km/h
(or by 1 mph, the latter for instrument
panels set to miles per hour).
Hold the SET + button pressed :
the set speed will increase in 10 km/h
steps (or in 5 mph steps when the
measurement unit is set to mph) until
the button is released. The set speed
increase is shown on the display.
Decreasing speed
After having set the device, the stored
speed can be reduced by holding the
SET
–
button pressed.
Press the SET
–
button once
: the
set speed will be reduced by 1 km/h
(or by 1 mph when the measurement
unit is set to mph). Each subsequent
press of the button will reduce the
speed by 1 km/h (or by 1 mph when
the measurement unit is set to mph).
Hold the SET
–
button pressed :
the set speed will decrease in 10 km/h
steps (or in 5 mph steps when the
measurement unit is set to mph) until
the button is released. The set speed
decrease is shown on the display.
WARNINGS
By keeping the accelerator pedal
depressed, the vehicle can continue to
accelerate beyond the set speed. In
this case, press the SET + (or SET
–
)
button to set the speed to the current
speed of the car.
When the SET
–
button is pressed to
reduce the speed, the braking system
intervenes automatically if the exhaust
brake does not slow the car down
sufficiently to reach the set speed.
The device holds the set speed uphill
and downhill; however a slight variation
is entirely normal, particularly on slight
gradients.
For versions with manual transmission,
gears can be shifted during operation
of the device to allow to select the gear
suited to the set speed and keep the
device set. The device is cancelled
when you press and hold the clutch
pedal down or putting the gear lever
in the neutral position for more than a
certain time limit.
The automatic transmission (or dual
clutch automatic transmission) could
change to a lower gear when driving
downhill or when accelerating. This is
normal and necessary to maintain the
set speed.
The device is switched off while driving
if the brakes overheat.
CHANGING THE SPEED
The system can be used to set a speed
limit equal to that indicated on the
road sign detected by the “Traffic Sign
Information” system (see the respective
paragraph in this section).
If the setting was selected, the
"Traffic Sign Information" system will
suggest the new speed limit, which
will be shown with a message on the
instrument panel display. The driver
can confirm the speed setting RES
suggested by the road sign with the
RES button.
ACCELERATING WHEN
OVERTAKING
When driving with the device active
and following a vehicle, the device
provides additional acceleration to
facilitate overtaking, when travelling
over a given speed and switches on
the left direction indicator on roads with
right-hand traffic (of the right indicator
for roads with left-hand traffic).
The device detects the direction of
traffic automatically when vehicle
passes from left-hand traffic to right-
hand traffic.
