(cruise control system)*With the aid of this system it is possible to
constantly maintain any desired speed from
30 km/h without the driver having to hold
his foot on the accelerator pedal.Warning
Do not use the cruise control system
in dense traffic or on a slippery road
surface (ice, snow, rain, grit, etc.).
If the cruise control system is switch-
ed on, do not shift into neutral with-
out depressing the clutch pedal oth-
erwise the engine may overrev.
In order to prevent unintentional use
of the cruise control system, always
switch off the system after use.
Note
On models fitted with an automatic gear-
box, the cruise control system is only ac-
tive in selector lever positions D, 3 and 2. It
is not possible to use the cruise control
system in selector lever positions P, N , R
and 1 . The system is operated with the sliding
switch
A and the pushbutton B on the
multifunction switch.
Switching onMove switch A to ON .
Storing a speed
Switch on the cruise control system. As soon
as you have reached the desired speed,
briefly press pushbutton B in position SET.
After pressing pushbutton B in position
SET , the car will maintain the speed stored
(above 30 km/h [20 mph]) without you hav-
ing to depress the accelerator.
The stored speed can also be increased in
the usual way by depressing the accelerator.
When the accelerator is released, the speed
is again reduced to the speed previously
stored.This is not the case, however, if the stored
speed is exceeded by more than 10 km/h
for a period of more than 5 minutes. In such
a case, it is necessary to again store the
speed.
The speed can be reduced in the usual
way - by depressing the brake pedal or the
clutch pedal (switches off system tempo-
rarily - refer to page 69).

speed if it is not too high for the traf-
fic conditions which exist at that
moment.
