Speed limiter

Introduction

This chapter contains information on the following subjects:

→ Display and warning and indicator lamp

→ Operating the speed limiter

The speed limiter helps to maintain a speed

limitation set by the driver.

The speed limiter helps to prevent the driver from exceeding an individually stored speed when driving forwards at speeds of approximately 30

km/h (19 mph) and above

→

WARNING

Always switch off the speed limiter after use to avoid unintentional speed regulation.

The speed limiter does not relieve the driver of their responsibility for the speed of the vehicle. Do not drive at full throttle if it is not required.

Use of the speed limiter in adverse weather conditions is dangerous and can cause serious injury, e.g. through aquaplaning, snow, ice, or

leaves. Only use the speed limiter when the road and weather conditions allow it to be used safely.

The speed limiter cannot limit the vehicle speed when travelling downhill. The vehicle speed can increase under its own weight. Shift down

a gear or brake the vehicle using the foot brake.
