Note:
If the engine does not brake the
vehicle sufficiently while driving on
a downgrade, the speed you set
on the cruise control may be ex­
ceeded and you may have to step
on the brake pedal to slow down.
As soon as the grade eases, the
cruise controlled speed will again
be maintained as long as the
brakes were not previously
applied, or the lever may be used
to resume the previously set
speed if the brakes were applied.
Caution!
When driving with the cruise
control, the transmission selector
lever must not be shifted to
position “ N ” as otherwise the
engine will overrev, possibly
causing engine damage that is not
covered by the Mercedes-Benz
Limited Warranty.
Warning!
Only use the cruise control if
the traffic and weather con­
ditions make it advisable to
travel at a steady speed.
• The use of cruise control
can be dangerous on wind­
ing roads or in heavy traffic
because conditions do not
allow safe driving at a
steady speed.
• The use of cruise control
can be dangerous on slip­
pery roads. Rapid changes
in tire adhesion can result
in wheel spin and loss of
control.
The “Resum e” function
should only be operated if the
driver is fully aware of the
previously set speed and
wishes to resume this parti­
cular preset speed.
