Volkswagen Touran Owners Manual: Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
→ Warning and indicator lamps
→ Using the cruise control systemThe 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 .
Additional information and warnings:
- Changing gear
- Accessories, modifications, repairs and renewal of parts
WARNING
- 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.
