Cruise Control
Any given speed above approximately
40 km/h (25 mph) can be maintained
with the cruise control by operating the
lever.
1 Accelerate and set:
Lift lever briefly to set speed.
Hold lever up to accelerate.
2 Decelerate and set:
Depress lever briefly to set speed.
Hold lever down to decelerate.
Normally the vehicle is accelerated to
the desired speed with the accelera­
tor. Speed is set by briefly pushing the
lever to position 1 or 2. The accelera­
tor can be released.
The speed can be increased (e.g. for
passing) by using the accelerator. As
soon as the accelerator is released,
the previously set speed will be re­
sumed automatically.
If a set speed is to be increased or
decreased slightly, e.g. to adapt to the
traffic flow, hold lever in position 1 or 2
until the desired speed is reached.
When the lever is released, the newly
set speed remains.
3 Cancelling
To cancel the cruise control, briefly
push lever to position 3.
When you step on the brake or
clutch pedal or the vehicle speed
falls below approx. 40 km/h
(25 mph), for example when driv­
ing upgrade, the cruise control will
be cancelled.
4 Resume
If the lever is briefly pulled to posi­
tion 4 when driving at a speed ex­
ceeding approximately 40 km/h
(25 mph), the vehicle resumes the
speed which was set prior to the
cancellation of the cruise control.
The last memorized speed is can­
celled when the key is turned to
steering lock position 1 or 0.
Note:
If the engine does not brake the ve­
hicle sufficiently while driving on a
downgrade, the speed you set on the
cruise control may be exceeded. As
soon as the grade eases, the cruise
controlled speed will again be main­
tained as long as the brakes were not
applied.
If the set speed was sufficiently ex­
ceeded such that the brakes had to
be applied, the cruise control can be
resumed by pulling the lever to posi­
tion 4.
Warning!
Only use the cruise control if the
traffic and weather conditions make
it advisable to travel at a steady
speed.
Position “Resume” should be en­
gaged only if the driver is fully
aware of the previously set speed
and wishes to resume this particu­
lar preset speed.
In the case of manual transmis­
sions, the vehicle maximum speed
in the individual gears should not
be exceeded. See line markings on
the speedometer. In the case of au­
tomatic transmissions, the trans­
mission selector lever must not be
shifted to position “N” when driving
with the cruise control engaged as
otherwise the engine will overrev.
