the switch.

Decelerating (hold switch)
Normally the vehicle is acceler­
ated to the desired speed with
the accelerator. Speed is set by
briefly pushing the switch to
position “ 1" or “ 2” , and the
accelerator can be released.
The speed can be increased
(e.g. for passing) by using the
accelerator. As soon as the
accelerator is released, the
previously set speed will be
resumed automatically.
If a set speed is to be increased
or decreased slightly, e.g. to
adapt to the traffic flow, retain
switch in position “ 1” or “ 2”
until the desired speed is
reached. When the switch is
released, the newly set speed
remains.
Cancelling
To cancel the cruise control,
briefly push lever to position 3.
The cruise control will also be
cancelled if the brake pedal is
actuated or if the vehicle speed
drops below 40 km/h/25 mph.
