system and prevents the brakes from overheat‐
ing and wearing too quickly.
Do not use cruise control in the following situa‐
tions:
R
In traffic situations which require frequent
changes of speed, e.g. in heavy traffic, on
winding roads.
R
On slippery roads. Accelerating can cause
the drive wheels to lose traction and the
vehicle could then skid.
R
If you are driving when visibility is poor.
Function of the limiter
The limiter restricts the speed of the vehicle. To
reduce the speed to the set speed, the limiter
applies the brakes automatically.
You can limit the speed as follows:
R
Variable: for speed restrictions, e.g. in built-
up areas.
R
Permanent: for long-term speed restrictions,
e.g. when driving in winter tyre mode.
The variable limiter is operated using the corre‐
sponding steering wheel buttons. You can store
any road speed from 30 km/h to 250 km/h or
up to the set winter tyre limit. You can also per‐
form settings while the vehicle is stationary if
the vehicle has been started.
Observe the notes on driving systems and your
responsibility; you may otherwise fail to recog‐
nise dangers (

Kickdown
If you depress the accelerator pedal beyond the
pressure point (kickdown), the variable 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
If the stored speed is called up.
R
If you store a new speed.

WARNING Risk of accident due to stored
speed
If you call up the stored speed and this is
lower than your current speed, the vehicle
decelerates.

Take into account the traffic situation
before calling up the stored speed.
