Always switch off the speed limiter after use
to avoid unintentional cruise control.
• The speed limiter does not relieve the
driver of their responsibility for the speed of
the vehicle. Do not drive at full throttle if it is
not required.
• Use of the speed limiter in adverse weath·
er conditions is dangerous and can cause se­
rious injury, e.g. through aquaplaning, snow,
ice, or leaves. Only use the speed limiter
when the road and weather conditions allow
it to be used safely.
• The speed limiter cannot limit the vehicle
speed when travelling downhill. The vehicle
speed can increase under its own weight.
Shift down a gear or brake the vehicle using
the foot brake.

L-JcJ.I information and safety warnings A on
