Cruise Control (For some types)
Cruise control allows you to maintain
a set speed above 40 km/h (25 mph)
without keeping your foot on the
accelerator pedal. It should be used
for cruising on straight, open
motorways. It is not recommended
for conditions such as city driving,
winding roads, slippery roads, heavy
rain, or bad weather. You should
have full control of the car under
those conditions.
Improper use of the cruise
control can lead to a crash.
Use the cruise control only
when traveling on open
motorways in good weather.
