Cruise control* with
6-cylinder engines
You can find information about cruise control
with 4-cylinder engines starting on page
42 .
The principle
You can activate the cruise control with brake
function from a speed of approx. 30 km/h
(20 mph). The car then memorises and main-
tains the speed that you specify using the lever
on the steering column. In order to maintain the
specified speed, the system brakes the vehicle
when the engine braking effect is insufficient on
downhill gradients.
Do not use cruise control when driving
conditions are unfavourable for driving at
a constant speed. Otherwise you could lose
control of the vehicle and cause an accident as a
result. Unfavourable driving conditions include,
for example, winding roads, heavy traffic or a
poor road surface, e.g. snow, rain, ice or loose
material.

Manual gearbox
You can shift gears while cruise control is acti-
vated. An indicator light notifies you that you
should shift gears when you drive for an
extended period at very high or very low engine
speeds, or the system is deactivated.

Recalling a speed memorised beforehand
Maintaining current speed
Tap the lever, arrow
1
, or pull briefly, arrow
2
.
The car's current speed is memorised and
maintained. It is displayed in the speedometer
and briefly in the instrument cluster.
On uphill gradients, it may prove impossible to
maintain the set speed if current engine power
output is insufficient. On downhill gradients, the
system will brake the car slightly if engine brak-
ing alone is insufficient.
Increasing desired speed
Tap the lever repeatedly to the pressure point
or beyond, arrow
1
, until the desired speed is
reached.
> Each time the lever is tapped to the pres-
sure point, the desired speed is increased
by approx. 1 km/h (1 mph).
> Each time the lever is tapped beyond the
pressure point, the desired speed is
increased to the next multiple of 10 km/h
(5 mph).
Accelerating using the lever
Accelerating slightly:
Press the lever to the pressure point, arrow
1
,
until the desired speed is reached.
Accelerating significantly:
Press the lever beyond the pressure point,
arrow
1 , until the desired speed is reached.
The car accelerates without the accelerator
pedal being pressed. The system memorises
and maintains the speed.
Decreasing desired speed
Pull the lever repeatedly, arrow 2 , until the
desired speed is reached.
Other functions analogous to increasing
desired speed or accelerating, except that the
speed is decreased.
If the speed is to be reduced significantly,
press the brake pedal; otherwise, decel-
