CRUISE CONTROL
(constant speed
regulator)
(for versions/markets,
where provided)
It is a device able to support the driver,
with electronic control, which allows dri-
ving at speed over 30 km/h on long and
straight dry roads (e.g.: motorways), at a
desired speed, without pressing the ac-
celerator pedal. Therefore it is not sug-
gested to use this device on extra-urban
roads with traffic. Do not use it in town.
DEVICE ENGAGEMENT
Turn knob A-fig. 39 to ON .
The Cruise Control cannot be engaged
in first or reverse gear. It is advisable to
engage it in 4th or higher gears.
Travelling downhill with the device en-
gaged, the car speed may increase more
than the memorised one.
When the device is activated the warn-
ing light
Ü
turns on together with the rel-
evant message on the instrument panel
(for versions/markets, where provided).
TO MEMORISE SPEED
Proceed as follows:
❒
turn knob A-fig. 39 to ON and press
the accelerator pedal to the required
speed;
❒
move the stalk upwards ( + ) for at
least one second, then release it. The
car speed is memorised and it is
therefore possible to release the ac-
celerator pedal.
In the case of need (when overtaking for
instance) acceleration is possible simply
pressing the accelerator pedal: releasing
the accelerator pedal, the car will return
to the speed memorised previously.
