If you brake, deactivate ESP
venes, cruise control is deactivated. The vari‐
able limiter is not deactivated.
When you switch off the vehicle, the last
speed stored is cleared.
Permanent limiter
If you wish to limit the vehicle speed permanently
to a specific value (e.g. for driving in winter tyre
mode), you can set this speed with the perma‐
nent limiter.
You do this by limiting the speed to a value
between 120 km/h and 180 km/h in the on-
board computer ( page 151).
→
Shortly before the set speed is reached, it
appears in the multifunction display. When you
confirm the message with %, display mes‐
sages no longer appear until you switch off the
vehicle. The speed will only be displayed again
once the vehicle has been restarted.
The permanent limiter does not switch to passive
mode even during kickdown and the driven speed
remains below the set speed.
