Operation

Operation description
104
The Cruise Control System (CCS) maintains a set speed without you having to
actuate the accelerator pedal. The status where the CCS maintains the speed
is referred to hereinafter as the control.
WARNING■
The general information relating to the use of assistance systems must
be observed » page 96, in section Introduction .■
After pressing the clutch pedal, no interrupted control occurs! For exam-
ple, if a different gear is engaged and the clutch pedal is released, control is
continued.

Speed set, but control is inactive.
Control is active.
No speed set.
System fault - seek assistance from a specialist garage immediately.
Basic requirements for starting the control The CCS is activated.
On vehicles with a manual transmission , the second gear or higher is en-
gaged.
On vehicles with an automatic transmission , the selector lever is in the
D/S position or in the Tiptronic position.
The current speed is higher than 20 km/h.
This, however, is only possible to the extent permitted by the engine output
and braking power of the vehicle.
WARNINGIf the engine output or engine braking effect is insufficient to maintain the
set speed, the driver must assume control of the accelerator and brake
pedals!103Assist systems

If no speed is set the current speed is adopted.
Once the controls are activated, the CCS maintains the vehicle at the set
speed; the warning light  lights up in the instrument cluster.
Controls are automatically interrupted if any of the following occur.
▶ The brake pedal is operated.
▶ When one of the brake assist systems (e.g. ESC) intervenes.
▶ Through an airbag deployment.
▶ By pressing the
D
button.
WARNING■ Always deactivate the cruise control system after use to prevent the sys-
tem being switched on unintentionally.■
Control may only be resumed if the set speed is not too high for the cur-
rent traffic conditions.
Note■ During control, speed can be increased by pressing the accelerator pedal. Re-
leasing the accelerator pedal will cause the speed to drop again to the set
speed.■
By pressing the
D
button during the regulation, this is cancelled and the
speed limiter is activated.
