WARNING
- Always direct your full attention to the
road, even when you are using the cruise
control system. It is always the driver
who is responsible for determining the
speed and for keeping a safe distance to
the other vehicles on the road.
- For safety reasons, the cruise control sys-
tem must not be used in city traffic,
stop-and-go traffic, on roads with a lot of
bends or in difficult or slippery driving
conditions (such as Ice, fog, loose grit or
gravel, heavy rain, etc.) - risk of accident!
- When you take a turn-off, drive along a
motorway exit lane or pass through road-
work sections, please temporarily switch
off the cruise control system.
- Make sure you do not unintentionally
rest your foot on the accelerator - this
will override the cruise control system
which, as a result, will not brake the ve-
hicle.
i
Note
- The cruise control system is suitable
for
driving in speed-restricted zones. As a
driver you are always responsible for
maintaining the correct speed.
