Cruise Control
Any given speed above approxi­
mately 25 mph (40 km/h) can be
maintained with the cruise control
by operating the switch.
1 = Setting (touch switch)
Accelerating (hold switch)
2 = Setting (touch switch)
Decelerating (hold switch)
Normally the vehicle is accele­
rated to the desired speed with
the accelerator. Speed is set by
briefly pushing the switch to
position “ 1 ” o r “ 2 ” , and the
accelerator can be released.
The speed can be increased
(e. g. fo r passing) by using the
accelerator. As soon as the
accelerator is released, the
previously set speed w ill be
resumed autom atically.
If the set speed is to be in­
creased or decreased slightly
(e. g. fo r adaption to the flow
of traffic), retain sw itch in
position “ 1” or “ 2" until the
desired speed is reached. When
the sw itch is released, the newly
set speed remains constant.
= Cancelling
To cancel the cruise control,
briefly push lever to position
“ 3” .
The cruise control w ill also be
cancelled if the brake pedal is
actuated or if the vehicle speed
drops on steep grades by more
than 2 0 % below the set speed.
4 = Resume
If the lever is briefly pushed to
position “ 4 ” when driving at a
speed exceeding 25 mph
(40 km/h) that speed is resumed
which was set p rior to the
cancellation of the cruise
control. The most recently
stored speed is cancelled when
the key in the steering lock is
reversed to position “ 1” or “ 0” .
Im portant:
Please do not use the cruise control
if tra ffic conditions do not make it
advisable to maintain a steady
speed, i. e. in heavy traffic or on
tw isting o r slick and muddy roads.
Position “ Resume” should be
applied only if the driver is fully
aware of this speed and wishes to
resume this p articula r preset speed.
When driving with the cruise control,
the selector lever must not be
shifted to position “ N ” as otherwise
the engine w ill speed up.
