Standby mode due to driver intervention
Cruise control is temporarily disengaged and
automatically set in standby mode if:
•
the foot brake is used
•
the clutch pedal is depressed for longer
5
than 1 minute
•
the gear lever/selector is moved to N
position
•
the driver maintains speed higher than
the stored speed for longer than
1 minute.
The driver must then regulate the speed.
A temporary increase in speed with the accel-
erator pedal, e.g. during overtaking, does not
affect the setting - the car returns to the last
stored speed when the accelerator pedal is
released.
Automatic standby mode
Cruise control is temporarily disengaged and
set in standby mode if:
•
wheels lose traction
•
engine speed is too low/high
•
speed falls below approx. 30 km/h.
The driver must then regulate the speed.

Cruise control* - resume set speed
The cruise control (CC – Cruise Control) helps
the driver to maintain an even speed.
After temporary deactivation and standby
mode (p. 202) it is possible to resume the set
speed.
To reactivate the cruise control from standby
mode:
•
Press the steering wheel button
>
The combined instrument panel's
marking (5) and symbol (6) change colour
from GREY to WHITE - the car then fol-
lows the last stored speed.
NOTE
A marked speed increase may occur once
the speed has been resumed by selecting
the
button.
