The limiter restricts the speed of the vehicle. To
reduce the speed to the set speed, the limiter
applies the brakes automatically.
You can limit the speed as follows:
R
Variable: for a short-term speed restriction,
e.g. in built-up areas
R
Permanent: for a longer-term speed restric-
tion, e.g. in winter tyre mode
You operate the variable limiter with the left-hand
control group on the steering wheel
(
/
page 276).
You can store any speed above 20 km/h up to the
maximum design speed or up to the set winter
tyre limit. You can also perform settings while the
vehicle is stationary if the vehicle has been star-
ted.
Observe the notes on driving systems and your
responsibility; you may otherwise fail to recognise
dangers (
