● When driving downhill, the speed limiter may not be able to maintain the set speed, and the vehicle may accelerate due to its own weight. In this case, shift to a lower gear or apply the foot brake immediately to reduce speed. The speed limiter helps to prevent the ve- hicle from exceeding a speed that you have stored. . The speed limiter is available when driving for- wards at speeds from around 30 km/h. Operating the speed limiter through the multifunction steering wheel Interrupt the speed limiter while driving You can interrupt the speed limiter function at any time by fully depressing the accelerator be- yond the point of resistance.
As soon as the stor- ed speed is exceeded, the green indicator lamp will flash and an acoustic warning may sound. The speed remains stored in the memory. Please refer to at the start of the chapter on page 112. The speed limiter function is activated again au- tomatically as soon as the speed drops below the stored speed. Displays When the speed limiter is switched on, the in- strument cluster display shows the stored speed and the status of the speed limiter: Small font or gray: the speed limiter is de- activated. Large font or white: the speed limiter is ac- tivated. Driving downhill The vehicle cannot maintain the stored speed in all driving situations. Fig.
93 left side of the multifunctional steering wheel: speed limiter operation buttons Open – Press the button. To reduce the speed, the foot brake should be applied and if necessary, shift to a lower gear. The previously set speed is stored in the system but control has not started yet. WARNING In order to avoid unintentional control inter- ventions, switch off the speed limiter when you do not need it. Starting control – While driving, press the button. ● Even if the vehicle is equipped with a speed limiter, the driver must control the vehicle speed according to the actual situation. Do not drive at full throttle if this is not necessa- ry.
The current speed is stored as the maximum speed. The green indicator lamp lights up. Adjusting the speed You can adjust the stored speed: +1 km/h -1 km/h +10 km/h -10 km/h ● It is extremely dangerous to use a speed lim- iter in inclement weather conditions. Serious injury or death may occur when driving on roads with water, snow, ice or leaves. Use speed limiter only when road and weather conditions permit. Press and hold the or button to continuously change the stored speed. Owner's manual 112
