Cruise control*

The concept

Cruise control is available at speeds of at least
approx. 20 mph/30 km/h. The car stores and
maintains the speed that you specify with the
lever on the steering column.

Do not use cruise control if conditions are
unfavorable for driving at a constant

speed, e.g. due to winding roads, dense traffic,
or poor road conditions such as snow, rain, ice,
loose surface, etc. Otherwise, you could lose
control of the vehicle and cause an accident.

<

One lever for all functions

1 Storing and maintaining speed or accelerat-

ing

2 Storing and maintaining speed or deceler-

ating

3 To recall the stored speed
4 Deactivating cruise control

To maintain current speed

Tap the lever, arrow

1, or pull it briefly, arrow 2.

The car's current speed is stored and main-
tained. If, on downhill grades, the engine brak-
ing effect is not sufficient, the controlled speed
can be exceeded. Speed can drop on uphill
grades if the engine output is insufficient.

To increase speed

Tap the lever repeatedly, arrow

1, until the

desired speed is reached.
Every time you tap the lever, the speed
increases by approx. 1 mph/1 km/h.
