When travelling downhill with the device engaged, the ve-
hicle speed may slightly exceed the pres et one.
The engagement of the device is s ignalled by the Üwarn-
ing light coming on in the in strument panel (together with
a message shown on the di splay ) (see “Ins trument panel
warning light s” paragraph).
S TORING THE C AR SPEED
Proceed as follows:
❍ turn the ring nut A - fig. 36 to ON and press the ac-
celerator pedal until the vehicle reaches the desired
s peed;
❍ turn the ring nut to (+) for at lea st three s econds, then
relea se it. The vehicle speed is now memoris ed and you
can therefore releas e the accelerator pedal.
If needed (when overtaking for in stance), you can accel-
erate simply by pre ssing the accelerator pedal; when you
releas e the pedal, the car will r
eturn to the speed memo-
ris ed previous ly .
RES TORING THE MEMORIS ED SPEED
If the device has been switched off, for example by de-
pressing the brake or clutch pedal, the memori sed speed
can be res tored as follows:
❍ accelerate graduall y until reaching a s peed approach-
ing the memori sed speed; ❍
engage the gear selected at the time of s peed memo-
ris ing (fourth, fifth or sixth gear);
❍ press button C - fig. 36.
INC REAS ING THE MEMORIS ED SPEED
This can be done in two wa ys:
❍ by pressing the accelerator and then memori sing the
new speed reached;
or
❍ by temporaril y turning ring nut B - fig. 36 to (+).
Each movement of the selector wheel will corres pond to
a slight incr
ease in s peed (about 1 km/h), while keeping
the selector wheel turned will corre spond to a continu-
ous speed increas e.
REDUC ING THE MEMORIS ED SPEED
This can be done in two wa ys:
❍ by dis engaging the device and then memoris ing the
new speed;
or
❍ by keeping ring nut B - fig. 36 turned to (–) until the
new speed is reached; it will then be memori sed auto-
matically .
Each movement of the ring nut will corre spond to a re-
duction in s peed of about 1 km/h, while keeping the ring
nut turned will corres pond to a continuous reduction in
s peed.
