You can set a variable or permanent limit
speed:
R
variable for speed limits, e.g. in built-up
areas
R
permanent for long-term speed restric-
tions, e.g. for driving on winter tyres

Risk of accident
Speedtronic is only an aid designed to assist
driving. You are responsible for the vehicle's
speed and for braking in good time.
i
The speed indicated in the speedometer
may differ slightly from the limit speed
stored.
Variable Speedtronic
You can operate cruise control* and variable
Speedtronic with the cruise control lever.
The LIM indicator lamp on the cruise control
lever indicates which system you have selec-
ted:
R
LIM indicator lamp off:
Cruise control* is selected
R
LIM indicator lamp lit:
variable Speedtronic is selected
You can use the cruise control lever to limit
the speed to any speed above 30 km/h while
the engine is running.

Risk of accident
If there is a change of drivers, advise the new
driver of the limit speed stored.
Only use Speedtronic when you do not have
to accelerate suddenly to a speed higher than
the stored limit speed allows. You could, oth-
erwise, cause an accident.
You can only exceed the limit speed stored if
you deactivate variable Speedtronic:
R
using the cruise control lever
R
by depressing the accelerator pedal
beyond the pressure point (kickdown)
It is not possible to deactivate variable Speed-
tronic by braking.
Storing the current speed
You can use the cruise control lever to limit
the speed to any speed above 30 km/h while
the engine is running.
X
Briefly press the cruise control lever to the
pressure point up
:
or down
?
.
The current speed is stored. For five sec-
onds, the multi-function display shows the
stored speed, e.g.
Limit 100 km/h
