64 CRUISE CONTROL
(fig. 77)(optional for versions/markets
where applicable)
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The electronic cruise control makes it
possible to drive the car at the required
speed without pressing the accelerator
pedal. This reduces driving fatigue on mo-
torways, especially during long journeys
because the speed memorised is auto-
matically maintained.
IMPORTANT The Cruise Control can
only be engaged with speed over 30
km/h and, just for certain versions up to
180 km/h.
CONTROLS(fig. 78)
The cruise control is controlled by switch
(A), knurled ring (B) and by button (C).Switch (A) has two positions:
–OFFin this position the device is de-
activated;
–ONis the device’s normal operating
position. When the device starts to act on
the engine, the corresponding warning
light on the instrument cluster turns on.
The knurled ring (B) serves to memo-
rise and maintain the car speed or to in-
crease or reduce the speed memorised.
Turn the knurled ring (B) to the (+) po-
sition to memorise the speed reached or
to increase the speed memorised.
Turn the knurled ring (B) to the (–) to
reduce the speed memorised.
The cruise control must
only be activated when
the traffic and the road make it
possible to travel safely at a con-
stant speed for a sufficiently long
time.
WARNING
On vehicles with auto-
matic transmission, nev-
er move the lever to N when the
car is on the move.
WARNING
The device is automatically disengaged
in any one of the following cases:
– pressing the brake pedal;
– pressing the clutch pedal;

gearshift lever to N.
