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 Owner's 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.
Using engine braking instead of the
foot brake
With Cruise Control, speed is regulated with
less frequent application of the foot brake. On
a downhill gradient it may sometimes be
desirable to start moving a little faster and
limit the acceleration by engine braking. In this
case the driver can temporarily disable foot
brake application by Cruise Control.
To do so, proceed as follows:
–
Depress the accelerator pedal about half-
way down and release.
> Cruise Control will disengage its auto-
matic foot braking and then uses
engine braking only.
