This chapter contains information on the following subjects:

→ Using the cruise control system

The cruise control system (CCS) is able to maintain an individual set speed at forward speeds between approx. 20 km/h (12 mph).

The CCS slows the vehicle only by easing off the accelerator, not by actively braking .

Accessories, modifications, repairs and renewal of parts

WARNING

The use of the cruise control system can lead to accidents and serious injuries if traffic does not allow you to drive at a safe distance at a constant speed.

Never use the CCS in heavy traffic, on steep or winding roads, or on slippery road surfaces e.g. on snow, ice, wet roads on gravel or on flooded roads.

Never use the CCS when driving off-road or on non-surfaced roads.

Adapt your speed and distance to the vehicles ahead to suit visibility, weather, road and traffic conditions.

Always switch cruise control off after using it in order to avoid unintentional cruise control.

It is dangerous to use a set speed which is too high for the prevailing road, traffic or weather conditions.

When travelling down hills, the CCS cannot maintain a constant speed. The vehicle can accelerate under its own weight. Shift down gear or brake the vehicle using the foot brake.
