CRUISE CONTROL(constant speed regulator)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This is an electronically controlled driving assistance
device which allows the car to be driven at a chosen
speed above 30 km/h on long stretches of dry,
straight roads with few variations (e.g. motorways),
without having to depress the accelerator pedal.
The use of this device on extra-urban roads with
traffic is not therefore recommended. Do not use
the device in town.
TURNING THE DEVICE ON
Turn the ring nut A fig. 42 to the ON position.
The device must only be switched on in 4th gear or
higher. When travelling downhill with the device
engaged, the vehicle speed may slightly exceed the
preset one.The activation is indicated by the turning on of
warning light
on the instrument panel (together
with the dedicated message on the display) (see
“Warning lights and messages” chapter).
STORING THE VEHICLE SPEED
Proceed as follows:
❒ turn ring nut A fig. 42 to ON and press the
accelerator pedal so that the car reaches the
desired speed;
❒ turn the ring nut B to (+) for at least three
seconds, then release it. The vehicle speed is now
memorised and you can therefore release the
accelerator pedal.
If needed (when overtaking for instance), you can
accelerate simply by depressing the accelerator pedal;
when you release the pedal, the vehicle goes back
to the speed set previously.
RESTORING STORED SPEED
If the device has been switched off, for example by
depressing the brake or clutch pedal, the memorised
speed can be restored as follows:
❒ accelerate progressively until a speed close to that
stored is reached;
❒ engage the gear selected at the time that the
speed was memorised (4th, 5th or 6th gear);
❒ press button C fig. 42.
