Vehicle speed limiter
The vehicle speed limiter prevents you from
driving faster than a programmed speed.
See the label on the driver side sun visor for
further information.
Vehicles with a diesel engine
You can have the maximum speed of your
vehicle limited to a predefined value,
providing it is within legal limits. Ask your
dealer for further information.
Vehicles with Start-Stop
Note: If the vehicle has a fixed speed limit
lower than 110 km/h (70 mph), this will
override the switchable speed limiter
associated with Start-Stop.
When Start-Stop is activated your vehicle
speed is limited to 110 km/h (70 mph).
The system is on by default. To deactivate
this speed limit, press the ECO switch. The
system will only be de-activated for the
current ignition cycle. To turn it on, press
the switch again. For item location. See At
a Glance (page 1).
