Warning Light - BMW 2007X5 3.0si Owner's Handbook Manual

4 Calling up memorised speed
Maintaining current speed
Tap the lever, arrow 1, or pull briefly, arrow 2.
The car's current speed is memorised and
maintained. It is displayed on the speedometer
and appears briefly in the instrument cluster.
It may also prove impossible to maintain the set
speed with the available engine power on uphill
gradients. If engine braking alone is insufficient
to prevent the car from speeding on a downhill
stretch, the system will apply the brakes lightly.
Increasing speed
Press the lever to the pressure point or beyond,
arrow 1, as often as needed until the desired
speed is set.
> Each time the lever is pressed as far as the
pressure point, the speed increases by
approx. 1 km/h or 1 mph.
> Each time the lever is pressed beyond the
pressure point, the speed is increased to
the next multiple of 10 km/h or 5 mph on the
speedometer display.
The system memorises and maintains the
speed.
Accelerating with the lever
To accelerate gently:
Press the lever as far as the pressure point,
arrow 1, until the desired speed is reached.
To accelerate more sharply:
Press the lever beyond the pressure point,
arrow 1, until the desired speed is reached.
The car accelerates without the accelerator
pedal being pressed. The system memorises
and maintains the speed.
Reducing speed
Pull the lever as often as necessary, arrow 2,
until the desired speed is displayed.
Functions as for increasing speed, except that
the car's speed is reduced instead.

Deactivating cruise control
Briefly press the lever upwards or downwards,
arrow 3.
The displays in the speedometer go out.
In addition, the system is automatically deacti-
vated:
> If you brake
> If you engage transmission position N
> If you activate DTC or DSC
> If you activate HDC
> If you apply the parking brake
> If driving stability control systems are acti-
vated
Cruise control is not deactivated by use of the
accelerator. The memorised speed is re-estab-
lished and maintained when you move off the
accelerator.

Warning light

The warning light comes on if cruise
control has been deactivated auto-
matically, e.g. because DSC has cut
in. A message appears on the control display.
Calling up memorised speed
Briefly press the button, arrow 4. The memo-
rised speed is recalled and maintained.
The memorised speed value is erased when the
ignition is switched off, and can no longer be
called up.
