Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Activating/deactivating
Storing and maintaining speed
Changing the stored speed
Temporarily deactivating
The Cruise Control System (CCS) maintains a set speed, more than 25 km/h, with-
out you having to actuate the accelerator pedal.
This is only possible within the range which is permitted by the power output and
braking power of the engine.
The warning light illuminates in the instrument cluster when the cruise control

system is switched on.
WARNING
For safety reasons, the cruise control system must not be used in dense
■
traffic or on unfavourable road surfaces (such as icy roads, slippery roads,
loose gravel) – risk of accident!
The saved speed may only be resumed if it is not too high for the current
■
traffic conditions.
Always deactivate the cruise control system after use to prevent the system
■
being switched on unintentionally.
CAUTION
The cruise control system is not able to maintain a constant speed when driving
■
in areas with steeper gradients. The weight of the vehicle increases the speed at
which it travels. In such cases, select a lower gear or brake the vehicle using the
footbrake.
The cruise control system cannot be activated when first gear or reverse gear is
■
selected (vehicles with manual transmission).
The cruise control system cannot be activated when the selector lever is in po-
■
sitions P , N or R (vehicles with automatic transmission).

The cruise control system may automatically switch off when some brake assist
■
systems (e.g. ESC) intervene, when the maximum permissible engine speed is ex-
ceeded, etc.
