• Selecting and activating the cruise control
function (p. 257)
• Deactivating cruise control functions (p. 259)
• Automatic speed limiter (p. 260)
WARNING
• The function is supplementary driver
support intended to facilitate driving
and make it safer – it cannot handle all
situations in all traffic, weather and
road conditions.
• The driver is advised to read all sec-
tions in the Manual that relate to this
function to learn about factors such as
its limitations and what the driver
should be aware of before using the
system.
• Driver support functions are not a sub-
stitute for the driver's attention and
judgement. The driver is always
responsible for ensuring the car is
driven in a safe manner, at the appro-
priate speed, with an appropriate dis-
tance to other vehicles, and in accord-
ance with current traffic rules and reg-
ulations.
Automatic speed
limiter
The Automatic Speed Limiter (ASL
72
) function
helps the driver to adapt the car's maximum
speed to the speed shown on the road signs.
The function has a dynamic
symbol that changes appear-
ance when the function is
active.
The colour of the symbol indicates the status of
the function:
Symbol Meaning
Illuminated Automatic speed limiter is
active.
Grey Automatic speed limiter is
selected but in standby mode.
Extin-
guished
Automatic speed limiter is inac-
tive. Other cruise control is
selected.
Speed information from road signs
The automatic speed limiter uses speed infor-
mation from the Road Sign Information (RSI
73
)
function to automatically adapt the car's maxi-
mum speed.
Road sign information bases its information on
the speed-dependent road signs that the car
passes, as well as map data. Physical signs
passed have highest priority, which may be nec-
essary for roadworks, for example.
If road sign information cannot interpret and
provide speed information to the driver support
systems, the automatic speed limiter is set in
standby mode and changes to normal speed
limiter. In such cases the driver must intervene
and brake to a suitable speed.
