You can operate the variable limiter with the
cruise control lever. You can store any road
speed above 20 km/h. You can also perform
settings while the vehicle is stationary if the
vehicle has been started.
Kickdown
If you depress the accelerator pedal beyond the
pressure point (kickdown), the limiter switches
to passive mode. The Limiter passive message
appears in the multifunction display.
After completion of kickdown, the variable lim‐
iter is activated again in the following situations:
R
If the driven speed drops below the stored
speed.
R

WARNING Risk of accident due to
unknown stored speed
If you call up the stored speed and this is
lower than your current speed, the vehicle
decelerates.
If you do not know the stored speed, the
vehicle could decelerate unexpectedly.
#
Take into account the traffic situation
before calling up the stored speed.
#
If the stored speed is not known, store
the desired speed again.
Change into a lower gear in good time on long
and steep downhill gradients. Take particular
note of this when driving a laden vehicle. By
doing so, you will make use of the braking effect
of the engine. This relieves the load on the brake
system and prevents the brakes from overheat‐
ing and wearing too quickly.
