Cruise control* (Cruise control
system - CCS)
Introduction
The cruise control system (CCS) is able to
maintain the set speed when driving for-
wards from approx. 20 km/h (12 mph).
The CCS only slows down by reducing the ac-
celerator but not by braking
WARNING
Use of the cruise control could cause acci-
dents and severe injuries if it is not possible
to drive at a constant speed maintaining the
safety distance.
● Do not use the cruise control in heavy traf-
fic, if the distance from the vehicle in front is
insufficient, on steep roads, with several
5
bends or in slippery circumstances (snow,
ice, rain or loose gravel), or on flooded roads.
Never use the CCS when driving off-road or
●
on unpaved roads.
