– Depress the accelerator pedal fully.
> The combined instrument panel shows
the stored maximum speed with a col-
oured mark (5) and the driver can tem-
porarily exceed the set maximum
speed - the mark (5) changes colour
during this time from GREEN to
WHITE.
The speed limiter is automatically reac-
tivated after the release of the acceler-
ator pedal and the car's speed is
slowed down to below the selected/
stored maximum speed - the display's
mark (5) changes colour from WHITE
to GREEN and the car's maximum
speed is again limited.

A Speed Limiter (Speed Limiter) can be regar-
ded as a reverse cruise control - the driver
regulates the speed using the accelerator
pedal but is prevented from accidentally
exceeding a pre-selected/set speed by the
speed limiter.
On a steep downhill gradient the speed limit-
er's engine braking effect may be inadequate
and the selected maximum speed is excee-
ded. The driver is alerted about this with an
acoustic signal.
The signal is active until the driver has slowed
to below the selected maximum speed.
NOTE
The alarm is only activated after 5 seconds
if the speed has been exceeded by at least
3 km/h, provided that neither of the
or
buttons has been depressed during the
last half minute.

A Speed Limiter (Speed Limiter) can be regar-
ded as a reverse cruise control - the driver
regulates the speed using the accelerator
pedal but is prevented from accidentally
exceeding a pre-selected/set speed by the
speed limiter.
To deactivate the speed limiter:
–
Press the steering wheel button .
> The combined instrument panel's sym-
bol for speed limiter (6) and the selec-
tion of the set speed (5) both extin-
guish - the set/stored speed is thus
cleared and cannot then be resumed
with the
button.
The driver can then use the accelerator
pedal to choose a speed without limi-
tation.
