A
WARNING
- Always pay attention to the traffic around
you when the cruise control system is in op-
eration . You are always responsible for your
speed and the distance between your vehi-
cle and other vehicles.
- For safety reasons, cruise control should not
be used in the city, in stop-and-go traffic, on
winding roads and when road conditions are
poor (such as ice, fog, gravel, heavy rain and
hydroplaning), because this increases the
risk of an accident.
- Switch the cruise control off temporarily
when dr iving in turning lanes, highway exits
-
or in construction zones.
