1.4 Tap briefly = function
changeover to speed
limiter (LIM). The function
changeover is indicated by
the “LIM” symbol on the
display screen. If the steering
column switch (A) is now
moved to position (1.1) or
(1.2), the current speed will
be set as the limit speed. The
set value is shown on the
display screen. The driver
must continue to use the
accelerator pedal.
Note:
Press and hold (1.1): the limit
speed that was set will be
increased by increments of 3
mph (5 km/h) for as long as
the switch is pressed.
Note:
Press and hold (1.2): the
limit speed set will be de-
creased by increments of 3
mph (5 km/h) for as long as
the switch is pressed.
Note:
To deactivate: combination
switch to position 1.3 or
activate cruise control (by
pressing button (1.4)).
Note:
The speed limiter can be
activated at speeds above
6 mph (10 km/h); between
6 mph (10 km/h) and
10 mph (15 km/h) it is
always limited to 10 mph
(15 km/h). It is possible
to exceed the set speed
temporarily by depressing the
accelerator pedal beyond the
stop (kickdown). As soon
as the accelerator pedal is
released, the stored limit
speed will become effective
once more.
Note:
The retarder is automatic-
ally activated if the set limit
speed is exceeded by more
than 4 km/h in overrun
mode.
