WARNING
When you are going downhill, your
speed may increase above the set
speed. The system will not apply the
brakes but a warning will be given. The system allows you to set a speed, to
which the vehicle then becomes limited.
The set speed will become the effective
maximum speed of the vehicle, but with
the option to temporarily exceed this limit
if required.
USING THE SPEED LIMITER
Note:
The set speed limit can be
intentionally exceeded for a short period if
required, for example when overtaking.
The system is operated by adjustment
controls mounted on the steering wheel. Set speed increase

desired speed limit. The speed is displayed
in the information display and stored as
the set speed.
Pull switch D to cancel the limiter and
place it in standby mode. The information
display will confirm deactivation by
showing the set speed crossed out.
Pull switch D again to resume the limiter.
The information display will confirm the
system is active by showing the set speed
again.
Intentionally exceeding the set
speed limit
Depress the accelerator fully to temporarily
deactivate the system. The system will
reactivate once the vehicle speed drops
below the set speed.
